3 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

3.2. Swimming Pool Heat Pumps Location

The unit will perform well in any outdoor location provided that the following three factors are
present.
1. Fresh Air - 2. Electricity - 3. Pool filter piping
The unit may be installed virtually anywhere outdoors. For indoor pools consult the supplier.
Unlike a gas heater, it has no draft or pilot light problem in a windy area.
DO NOT place the unit in an enclosed area with a limited air volume, where the units discharge
air will be re-circulated.
DO NOT place the unit to shrubs which can block air inlet. These locations deny the unit of a
continuous source of fresh air which reduces it efficiency and may prevent adequate heat
delivery.

3.3. How to close your pool?

Normally, the pool heat pump is installed within 7.5 meters of the pool. The longer the distance
from the pool, the greater the heat loss from the piping. For the most part , the piping is buried.
Therefore , the heat loss is minimal for runs of up to15 meters (15 meters to and from the pump
= 30 meters total), unless the ground is wet or the water table is high.
A very rough estimate of heat loss per 30 meters is 0.6 kW-hour, (2000BTU) for every 5
difference in temperature between the pool water and the ground surrounding the pipe, which
translates to about 3% to 5% increase in run time.
