GENERAL WARNINGS
HYDRAULIC CONNECTION
Respect the order of the various hydraulic equipment (see page 12).
This product was designed to operate at air temperatures of between
2 °C and 35 °C inclusive, and water temperatures of above 4 °C
When winterizing your pool, you must also shut down Aéromax Piscine to
prevent any risk of failure during the winter, in particular frost-induced
damage to the exchanger.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Be sure to turn off the power before removing the cover, to prevent any
risk of injury or electric shock.
The connection must comply with installation standard NFC 15-100, or the
recommendations in force in the country in which Aéromax Piscine is to be
installed (see page 13).
Upstream of the appliance, the electrical installation must have an all-pole
cut-out device (circuit-breaker, fuse) compliant with the local installation
rules in force (30 mA residual current device).
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its After-Sales service or a similarly qualified professional to prevent any
hazards.
Earthing is mandatory. A special terminal marked is provided for this
purpose.
The ventilation hole must not be obstructed.
Service operations may only be performed on the refrigerant circuit by a
skilled and authorised refrigeration engineer.
The user manual for this appliance can be obtained from the After-Sales
service.
These appliances comply with Directives 2014/30/EU on electromagnetic
compatibility, 2014/35/EU on low voltage, and 2011/65/EU on ROHS.
Environment: Do not dispose of your appliance with household
waste; take it to an official collection point for recycling.

1. Product presentation
1.1. Important recommendations
The installation and commissioning work on Aéromax Piscine may pose hazards due to high pressures
and live parts.
Aéromax Piscine must be installed, commissioned and serviced by trained and qualified personnel
only.
1.2. Packaging contents
1.3. Transport, Handling and storage
Storage and transport of the Aéromax Piscine in the horizontal position are prohibited, since it
could be damaged. Handle the appliance with care. It is formally prohibited to handle Aéromax
Piscine via the water inlets and outlets. Our liability cannot be incurred for any product defect
resulting from transport or handling of the product not in accordance with our recommendations.
When handling the unit, keep in mind the following points:
•
Fragile, handle with care.
•
Keep the box oriented so that these arrows are always pointing upward, to prevent any
damage to the compressor.
• Before picking up, make sure that the product has an unobstructed transport path.
• Move the product with its original package, mounted upright on its pallet.
• Before lifting the product, be aware off its off-centred centre of gravity.

1.4. Operating principle
Aéromax Piscine uses outside air to heat the water in your pool. The refrigerant contained in
Aéromax Piscine completes a thermodynamic cycle, enabling it to transfer the energy contained
in the outside air to the pool water.
The fan generates an air flow into the evaporator. The refrigerant evaporates upon entering the
evaporator.
The compressor compresses the fluid vapour, raising its temperature. This heat
is transmitted to the pool water via the titanium exchanger.
The refrigerant then passes into an expansion capillary, where it cools and reverts to liquid form.
It is then once more ready to receive heat in the evaporator.

Start-up:
• Power on Aéromax Piscine via
your switch board.
Aéromax Piscine will be in standby mode,
with ambient temperature displayed on the remote control.
• Press the button on the remote control.
• The fan should start up, followed moments later by the
compressor.
• Once the Aéromax Piscine compressor has run for a few
minutes, check that the air discharged by the fan is being
cooled.
Check that after the water circulation pump is switched off, Aéromax Piscine also switches off.
The message should be displayed on the remote control.
Then restart the circulation pump. The message should disappear and Aéromax Piscine should
restart. This may take a few minutes.

• To ensure the best possible performance, the target
temperature difference between the inlet and outlet is 2 °C.
To achieve this difference, adjust the main bypass valve (V1).
• To reduce the difference, reduce the opening of the
stepper valve (V1).
• To increase this difference, open the stepper valve (V1).
• If does not appear when the circulation
pump is running, ensure that valves V2 and V3 are open,
and that valve V1 is closed.

Aéromax Piscine can only start if the water
is circulating inside.
Each valve position change requires you to wait a few seconds, to view the effect on
the remote control display.
Once the setting has been confirmed, mark the position of the levers on the valves,
in order to facilitate recommissioning after winterizing.
To rapidly heat up the pool, it is advisable to run the circulation pump and
Aéromax Piscine continuously (24 h a day) until the desired temperature setpoint is
reached. (This may take several days)

Follow the same procedure to unlock.
4. Winterizing - Recommissioning
4.1. Preparing for winter:
To do so, you need to:
• Cut the power supply to the circuit breaker.
• Close the inlet valve (2) and outlet valve (3) on Aéromax Piscine.
• Empty the entire Aéromax Piscine water circuit by unscrewing the water inlet and outlet
connectors on the rear of the product, or opening the drainage circuit valve (if any).
• After making sure that there is no water left in the circuit, screw these connectors back in,
to prevent any foreign bodies from getting into the circuit.
• Place the winterizing tarpaulin over the product.
We cannot be held liable for any fault in a product if the winterizing rules have not been complied
with.
4.2. Precautions - Start of season:
When reactivating your pool and Aéromax Piscine, you need to:
• Remove the winterizing tarpaulin.
• Clean the fan to remove any objects that might impede start-up, and also the evaporator
(rear grille), using a soft-bristled brush and taking care not to bend the blades.
• Check the tightness of the connectors.
• Follow the start-up procedure described on page 13 of the manual, and reset the bypass
valves if necessary.
C
C
IN OUT
When winterizing your pool, you must also shut down Aéromax Piscine to prevent
any risk of failure during the winter, in particular frost-induced damage to the
exchanger.
