3 INTRODUCTION This manual includes all necessary information about the unit. Please read this manual carefully before you use and maintain pump. The unit The swimming pool heat pump is one of the most economical systems to heat swimming pools efficiently. Using the free, renewable energy from the air, it delivers up to 6.2 times more energy in heating than a traditional heating system such as a gas boiler or electric heater, saving 85% on energy costs. The swimming pool heat pump provides comfortable swimming temperatures year round in milder climates and extended swimming seasons in the cooler/ drier climates Ecological and economical heating By making use of the renewable energy in the outside air, it consumes much less energy with low carbon emissions. Utilizes environmentally and ozone-friendly technology, R410A. Titanium heat exchanger Advanced titanium heat exchanger guarantees a long life span and protects against the damaging effects of corrosion or rust. By using a titanium heat exchanger, the heat pump is compatible with all types of water treatment such as chlorine, bromine and salt. Multiple functions - Cooling and heating functions - Auto-operation, Auto-restart, Auto defrost - Timer on/off: no attendance is required - Wide ambient working condition: -5 C to 43 C (23 F to 109 F) Reliable operation To guarantee the stable operation and safety of the unit, multiple protection devices have been built into the design, including insufficient water flow protection, high/low pressure protection, overload protection and compressor protection. Safe use The unit runs without oil, gas or any other hazardous substance, removing the risk of intoxication, smell, combustion, pollution from leakage. Self-diagnosis In case of a malfunction, the pump will make a self-diagnosis by displaying an error code on the control panel, no guesswork necessary. 3

4 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To prevent injury to the user, others, or property damage, the following instructions must be carefully followed. Ignoring these instructions may result in injury or death. Install the unit only if it complies with local codes, by-laws and standards. Check the main voltage and frequency. This unit is only suitable for grounded circuits, connection voltage V ~ / 60Hz. It cannot be converted to 120 volts. The following safety precautions should always be taken into account: - Be sure to read the following WARNING before installing the unit. - Be sure to observe the cautions specified here as they include important items related to safety. - After reading these instructions, be sure to keep them in a handy place for future reference. Installation must be done by a licensed and competent professional Incorrect installation could cause injury or death due to fire, electric shock, the unit falling or leakage of water. BE SURE ALL LOCAL CODES ARE FOLLOWED. Use the specified electrical wires and attach wires firmly to the terminal board (connection in such a way that the stress of the wires is not applied to the sections). THIS UNIT REQUIRES VOLTS, AC, 60 Hz, 20 Amp DUAL BREAKER WITH APPROPRIATE SIZE WIRE. The weather-proof wire provided with the unit is 8 feet long. Some municipalities DO NOT authorize usage of weather-proof wires, and require conduit protection. This unit runs on volts only. It cannot be used with 120 volts electricity Be sure to use the provided or specified parts for the installation work. Be sure to use the 'EQUIPOTENTIAL BONDING CONNECTION on the chassis of the heater. Please connect this bond to a minimum of #8 copper wire; along with the rest of the metal parts around the pool, in accordance with NEC Electrical code. The unit must always have a GROUNDED connection, as well as a bonding connection Do not use an extension cord to connect the unit to an electrical power supply. Do not move/repair the unit yourself. Before proceeding with any maintenance, service or repair work, electrical lines must be DISCONNECTED. Only a licensed/competent technician should work on this unit. Use only Genuine FIBROPOOL PARTS for replacement. All parts can be obtained from Fibropool, 4

5 Do not install the unit in a place where there is a fire hazard: GAS LEAKS. If there is a gas leak and gas accumulates in the area surrounding the unit, it could cause an explosion. UNDER THE ROOF EAVES. Although the unit is weatherproof, a direct pour of water from the roof is likely to penetrate the shell and cause a shortage. Please install the heater in an open area exposed to weather, but not beneath the roof line ON A WET SURFACE. Wet areas will cause metal corrosion and shorten the life of your heater LOWER THAN SURROUNDING AREAS. Install your heat pump on an equipment pad or concrete blocks to prevent accumulated water from entering the unit from bottom. IN ENCLOSED AREAS. The heat pump needs fresh air to operate. Do not install in equipment rooms or enclosed areas. If this is a must, be sure to install an air fan to supply fresh air to the room, at a rate of NO LESS THAN 3,000 cfm. Do not open the unit when the power is ON. Always shut OFF the power by disconnecting the supply breaker or service disconnect when cleaning or servicing the unit. Electrical shock, Injury or death can occur, as the unit works on HIGH voltage Do not continue to run the unit when there is something wrong or there is a strange smell. The service disconnect must be pulled off or breaker turned off in case of any suspicious condition. Do not put your fingers or other items into the fan. The ventilator runs at high speeds, potentially causing serious injury. Do not block the drain holes on the bottom. The unit will SWEAT heavily during operation. This is commonly mistaken for a leakage, but is actually CONDENSATION, moisture in the air draining. Provided elbow can snap to the bottom of the heater and may be directed by attaching a hose. 5

To optimize installation Allow a minimum of 12 of clearance on all 3 sides, but ensure 36 in front of the service panel Water connection The heat pump can be connected to the filtration circuit by one of two methods: 1. With a 3-valve bypass, placed after the pump and filter. This allows the user to regulate water flow to the pump and isolate the unit completely for maintenance. 2. Inline with the system. This will somewhat reduce the flow rate of the filtration system on large circulation pumps. NOTE If your pool has a water treatment system (chlorinator, salt generator, brominator etc...) installed, the bypass must be installed before the water treatment. A check valve after the heater, before the treatment system is recommended but not required. Electrical connection Electrical supply must be installed by a licensed electrician. This unit uses a double pole, Vac, 60 Hz circuit, with a 20-amp breaker. The unit will use a maximum of 9 amps of electricity during operation. 9

15 MAINTENANCE To protect the chassis, avoid placing objects on the device. External heat pump parts can be wiped with a damp cloth and household cleaner. (Note: Never use cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid or chloride as these can damage the surface) To prevent malfunctions due to sediment in the titanium heat exchanger, ensure that the heat exchanger cannot be contaminated. In the event that operating malfunctions occur due to contamination, the system should be cleaned as described below. (Warning: the fins on the tube heat exchanger have sharp edges-use caution to avoid injury) Cleaning the pipe system in the heat exchanger Contamination in the pipes and heat exchanger can reduce the performance and efficiency of the pump. Pressurized drinking water should be used by a technician to remove any of these substances. Cleaning the air system The finned heat exchanger, ventilator and condensation outflow should be cleaned of debris (leaves, twigs, etc...) before each season. These types of contaminants can be manually removed using compressed air or by flushing with clean water. It may be necessary to remove the device cover and air inlet grid first. The external fins can be cleaned with a spray on air conditioner condenser cleaner. Note: Before opening the device, ensure that all circuits are isolated from the power supply. To prevent the evaporator and condensation tray from being damaged, do not use hard or sharp objects for cleaning. Under extreme weather conditions, ice may form on the air intake and exhaust air outlet grids. If this happens, all ice from these grids must be removed to ensure that the minimum air flow rate is maintained. Winter Shutdown/Lay-up If the outdoor temperature is expected to drop below the pump's operating limit (-5 C or 23 F) after the swimming season has ended, the water circuit of the heat pump should be completely drained to avoid damage. For this, simply disconnect the unions, and lean the heater 45' degrees to the side of the connections. This will remove most/ all standing water from the tank. If you are not confident that all water has been removed, simply insert a wet-dry vacuum hose into the bottom water port and vacuum out the remaining water. Attention: Warranty does not cover damages to the heat exchanger tanks. 15

16 TROUBLESHOOTING This section provides useful information for diagnosing and correcting certain issues which may occur. Before starting the troubleshooting process, carry out a thorough visual inspection of the unit and look for obvious defects such as loose connections or defective wiring. Before contacting your local dealer, read this chapter carefully, it will save you time and money. WHEN CARRYING OUT AN INSPECTION OF THE SWITCH BOX OF THE UNIT, ALWAYS ENSURE THE MAIN SWITCH OF THE UNIT IS SWITCHED OFF. The guidelines below may help to solve your problem. If you cannot solve the problem, consult your installer or local dealer FIBROPOOL support@fibropool.com The heat pump will not run. Please check whether: There is supply of proper voltage (tripped fuse, power failure). Please be sure volts is read on the multimeter. OFTEN 1 SIDE OF THE BREAKER TRIPS AND OTHER SIDE SUPPLIES 120 V, WHICH FEEDS BACK AND YOU CAN GET A 120 V READING ON BOTH TERMINALS. But this is a false reading. Be sure to read volts between the supply lines The operating switch on the wired controller is switched ON, and whether the correct set point temperature has been set. The set temperature level cannot be reached. Please check whether: The permissible operating conditions for the heat pump have been adhered to (air temperatures too high or too low). The air inlet or outlet area is blocked, restricted or dirty. There are closed valves or stopcocks in the water pipes. The scheduled timer does work but the programmed actions are executed at the wrong time (e.g. 1 hour too late or too early). Please check whether: The clock and the day of the week are set correctly, adjust if necessary. If you cannot correct the fault yourself, please contact your service technician. Work on the heat pump may only be carried out by an authorized and qualified service technician. 16
