❷ Installaon
2.1 I Selecng the locaon
• The appliance must be installed in a dry venlated plant room with no pool maintenance
products stored nearby.
• 90° elbow ngs must not be installed directly at the heater inlet and outlet; leave at least
25 cm of straight pipe to prevent chaer of the ow switch armature.
• The appliance must be posioned horizontally or vercally and held by piping supported by brackets on
either side of the heater,
• If the heater is installed in a vercal posion, the direcon of ow must occur upwards,
• Leave a free space around the appliance to facilitate its installaon and maintenance,
• Preferably, the heater should be installed at the low point so that it is always full of water,
• The water treatment system must be installed at the low point aer the heater to prevent chlorine from
owing back into the heater.
• Comply with the direcon of installaon. If this is not complied with
(see diagram opposite), the ow switch will not be acvated.
2.2 I Hydraulic connecons
• An arrow on the heater body indicates the hydraulic connecon direcon to be implemented.
V1-V2-V3: by-pass

: Red Line
: Pump
: Filter
: Water treatment
• The connecon can be made using a PVC pressure pipe:
- directly if the ow rate is less than 30m³/h,
- via a by-pass if the ow rate is greater than 30m³/h,
- on the pool's ltraon circuit, aer the lter and before the water treatment system .
• Check the correct clamping of the hydraulic connectors and that there are no leaks.
We recommend assembly with a by-pass since this facilitates appliance maintenance.
