3.5 Swimming Pool Heat Pumps Electrical Wiring

NOTE: Although the unit heat exchanger is electrically isolated from the rest of the unit, it
simply prevents the flow of electricity to or from the pool water. Grounding the unit is still
required to protect you against short circuits inside the unit. Bonding is also required.
The unit has a separate molded-in junction box with a standard electrical conduit nipple
already in place. Just remove the screws and the front panel, feed your supply lines in
through the conduit nipple and wire-nut the electric supply wires to the three connections
already in the junction box (four connections if three phase). To complete electrical hookup,
connect Heat Pump by electrical conduit, UF cable or other suitable means as specified (as
permitted by local electrical authorities) to a dedicated AC power supply branch circuit
equipped with the proper circuit breaker, disconnect or time delay fuse protection.
Disconnect - A disconnect means (circuit breaker , fused or un-fused switch) should be
located within sight of and readily accessible from the unit, This is common practice on
commercial and residential air conditioners and heat pumps. It prevents remotely-energizing
unattended equipment and permits turning off power at the unit while the unit is being
serviced.

3.6 Initial startup of the Unit

NOTE- In order for the unit to heat the pool or spa, the filter pump must be running to
circulate water through the heat exchanger.
Start up Procedure - After installation is completed, you should follow these steps:
1. Turn on your filter pump. Check for water leaks and verify flow to and from the pool.
2. Turn on the electrical power supply to the unit, then press the key ON/OFF of wire
controller, It should start in several seconds.
3. After running a few minutes make sure the air leaving the top(side) of the unit is
cooler(Between 5-10 )
4. With the unit operating turn the filter pump off. The unit should also turn off automatically,
5. Allow the unit and pool pump to run 24 hours per day until desired pool water temperature
is reached. When the water-in temperature reaches this setting, the unit will slow down for a
period of time, if the temperature is maintained for 45 minutes the unit will turn off. The unit
will now automatically restart (as long as your pool pump is running)when the pool
temperature drops more than 0.2 below set temperature.
Time Delay- The unit is equipped with a 3 minute built-in solid state restart delay included to
protect control circuit components and to eliminate restart cycling and contactor chatter.
This time delay will automatically restart the unit approximately 3 minutes after each control
circuit interruption. Even a brief power interruption will activate the solid state 3 minute
restart delay and prevent the unit from starting until the 5 minute countdown is completed.
Power interruptions during the delay period will have no effect on the 3 minute countdown.
