INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Location

To gain maximum efficiency for your pool heat pump please follow all instructions
when "positioning the unit". It is also important to allow clearances for future
service and maintenance procedures.
The unit is designed for outdoor installation and should not be installed in a totally
enclosed area such as a shed, garage, etc., unless assisted ventilation of the cold
exhaust air is provided to ensure adequate air exchange for correct operation. Re-
circulation of cold discharged air back into the evaporator coil should be avoided
and will greatly reduce unit's heating capacity and efficiency.
The unit should be located as close as practically possible to the existing pool
pump and filter to minimize water piping. The use of 90 degree bends and short
radius elbows in the water piping should be kept to a minimum.
Mount the unit on a sturdy base, preferably a concrete slab or blocks. The base
should be completely isolated from the building foundation or wall to prevent the
possibility of sound or vibration transmission into the building. The size of the
base should not be less than the base of the pool heat pump.
Use of anti vibration mat between the base of the unit and final installation location
material is highly recommended to reduce potential vibration noise issues.

Installation Clearances

Air is pulled through the evaporator coil and discharged through the top or front
grill. Clearances must be allowed in front and around the unit for unrestricted
air discharge and service access. See Figure 1 and Figure 2. Failure to comply
to the set clearances may cause diminished unit performance and reduced unit
longevity.
