Damage may occur to theheater or threaten the safety of the user.A. Installation1) The swimming pool heater should be installed in a location with goodventilation;2) The frame must be fixed by bolts (M10) to concrete foundation orbrackets. The concrete foundation must be solid and fastened; thebracket must be strong and antirust treated;3) Don’t stack substances that will block air flow near inlet or outlet area,and no barrier within 20in behind the main heater, or the efficiency of theheater will be reduced or even haulted;4) The heater needs an appended pump (Supplied by the user). Therecommended pump specification-flux: refer to Technical Parameter,Max. lift 10m;5) When the heater is running, there will be condensation water8

discharged from the bottom. Please hold the drainage nozzle(accessory) into the hole and attach it well, then connect a pipe todrain the condensation water out.B. Wiring1) Connect to appropriate power supply; the voltage should complywith the rated voltage of the products.2) Heater must be grounded.3) Wiring must be handled by a professional technician according tothe circuit diagram.4) Set leakage protector according to the local code for wiring (leakageoperating current 30mA).5) The layout of power cable and signal cable should be orderly andnot interfere with each other.C. Switch on d

Pay attention to the following points:1． The heat pump must be installed OUTSIDE in a well ventilated area to avoid airrecirculation, or in a place with adequate room for both installation andmaintenance. Please refer to the following illustration:A minimum of 300mm of clearance from walls, shrubbery, equipment, etc. is required around theentire pump circumference. This allows for ample air intake. No less than 800mm clearance onthe air outlet is required to prevent recirculation of air. We recommend to not place the unitunderneath eaves, decks, or porches, as this causes recirculation of discharged air, or theefficiency of the heater will be reduced or even stopped.10
