3. Installation and Connection
3.1 Heat Pump Location
The unit will perform well in any outdoor location provided that the following three factors are presented:
1. Fresh Air - 2. Electricity - 3. Pool lter piping
The unit may be installed virtually anywhere outdoors. For indoor pools please consult the supplier.
Unlike a gas heater, it has no draft or pilot light problem in a windy area.
DO NOT place the unit in an enclosed area with a limited air volume, where the units discharge air will be
re-circulated.
DO NOT place the unit to shrubs which can block air inlet. These locations deny the unit of a continuous
source of fresh air which reduces its efciency and may prevent adequate heat delivery.
Normally, the pool heat pump is installed within 7.5 meters of the pool. The longer the distance from the
pool, the greater the heat loss from the piping. For the most part, the piping is buried. Therefore, the heat
loss is minimal for runs of up to15 meters(15 meters to and from the pump= 30 meters total), unless the
ground is wet or the water table is high. A very rough estimate of heat loss per 30 meters is 0.6 kW-hour,
(2000BTU)for every 5°C difference in temperature between the pool water and the ground surrounding
the pipe, which translates to about 3% to 5% increase in run time.
