START-UP

Before proceeding with this section make certain all plumbing connections are airtight and leak free.
Flow rates should not exceed 70 GPM maximum. Use of an external bypass is necessary at 70 GPM
and above. Minimum flow rate is 20 GPM.
• Turn filter pump time clock to the ON position and set filter pump hours. For initial heating, the pool
heater and filter pump may need to run continuously until your desired temperature is reached. After
initial heating is achieved, the heater will run only to maintain your desired temperature.
• Turn power supply to heater ON.
• The amber Standby LED will be activated.
• Select POOL or SPA and set your desired water temperature by scrolling either up or down.
• If your programmed water temperature is above the actual water temperature, the red HEAT
LED will light up indicating HEAT mode. The fan will start, and then the compressor will start.
NOTE: Each time the compressor turns off, it is protected by a 3-5 minute anti-short cycling delay.
Initial Heating
Initial heating may require you to run your heater and filter pump continuously for at least 24 hours,
or more, depending on the following factors:
• Temperature difference between actual water temperature and desired water temperature.
• Size of pool.
• Ambient air temperature, the cooler the air temperature the longer the heating time.
• Heat loss (evaporative, convective, radiative and conductive).
• A pool cover / solar blanket may reduce initial heating time by up to 50 percent.
Defrost Cycle
The heat pump pool heater has automatic defrost. When the outdoor temperature drops below 40 °F,
frost may start to form on the evaporator coil. Frost buildup will be heaviest on humid days when the
temperature is between 35-40°. During the defrost cycle, the Defrost LED will be illuminated to indicate
that the unit is defrosting. During this time the fan is running and the compressor is inactive.
Internal Protection Analyzers
The heater is equipped with internal devices to monitor and protect the integrity of the unit. Should an
abnormal condition occur, these devices will interrupt the operation of the unit and may display the
appropriate code on the control panel.
Reducing Heat Loss - Pool Cover / Solar Blanket
We highly recommend the use of a pool cover / solar blanket. Covering your pool is the single most cost
effective means of reducing heat costs from 50 to 70 percent. Heating a pool without a cover is like
heating a house without a roof. They also reduce the amount of maintenance costs. By reducing
evaporation, covers reduce the quantity of chemicals needed.
