5. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
5.1 Installation Illustration
Installation items:
The factory only provides the main unit, the other items in the illustration
are necessary spare parts for the water system, that provided by users or the installer.
Attention:
Please follow these steps when using for the first time
1. Open valve and charge water.
2. Make sure that the pump and the water-in pipe have been filled with water.
3. Close the valve and start the unit.
NOTES: It is necessary that the water-in pipe is higher than the pool surface.
The schematic diagram is for reference only. Please check the water inlet/outlet label on the
heat pump while plumbing installation.
The controller could be mounted on the wall.
5.2 Swimming Pool Heat Pumps Location
The unit will perform well in any outdoor location provided that the following three factors are
presented:
1. Fresh Air - 2. Electricity - 3. Pool filter piping
The unit may be installed virtually anywhere outdoors. For indoor pools please 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.
Automated Environmental Systems, Unit B, Anglian Lane, Bury St Edmunds, IP32 6SR
01284 6587710 | [email protected]

-11 -
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.
5.3 How Close To Your Pool?
Normally, the pool heat pump is installed within 7.5 metres of the pool. The longer the
distance from the pool, the greater the heat loss from the piping.
5.4 Swimming Pool Heat Pumps Plumbing
The Swimming Pool Heat Pumps exclusive rated flow titanium heat exchanger requires no
special plumbing arrangements except bypass. Since there is no residual heat or flame
Temperatures, The unit does not need copper heat sink piping. PVC pipe can be run straight into
the unit.
Location: Connect the unit in the pool pump discharge (return) line downstream of all filter
and pool pumps, and upstream of any chlorinators, ozonators or chemical pumps.
Standard model have fittings which accept 32mm or 50 mm PVC pipe for connection to the pool
or spa filtration piping.
Give serious consideration to adding a quick coupler fitting at the unit inlet and outlet to allow
easy draining of unit for winterizing and to provide easier access that should servicing be
required.

Condensation: Since the Heat pump cools down the air about 4 -5 , water may condense on
the fins of the horseshoe shaped evaporator. If the relative humidity is very high, this could
be as much as several litres an hour. The water will run down the fins into the basepan and
drain out through the barbed plastic condensation drain fitting on the side of the basepan.
This fitting is designed to accept 20mm clear vinyl tubing which can be pushed on by hand
and run to a suitable drain. It is easy to mistake the condensation for a water leak inside the
unit.
NB: A quick way to verify that the water is condensation is to shut off the unit and keep the
pool pump running. If the water stops running out of the basepan, it is condensation. AN
EVEN QUICKER WAY IS to TEST THE DRAIN WATER FOR CHLORINE - if the is no chlorine
present, then it's condensation.
5.5 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.
5.6 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 wired
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.
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.
