4. Setup u Installazzjoni
Proper installation is crucial for the performance and longevity of your heat pump. The unit should be placed on a stable, level surface with adequate clearance for air circulation (at least 50 cm around the fan outlet).
4.1 Tqegħid
- Place the heat pump outdoors, ensuring it is not exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged periods or heavy rain without adequate cover.
- Ensure the ambient temperature is above +10 °C for optimal operation.
- Consider the noise level and air discharge direction when choosing a location.
4.2. Konnessjonijiet tal-Ilma
Connect the heat pump to your pool's filtration system. The unit uses a full-flow technology, meaning the entire pool water flow passes through the heat pump.
- Identify the water inlet and outlet ports on the heat pump (refer to Figure 3.3).
- Connect the outlet of your pool filter pump to the heat pump's IN port.
- Connect the heat pump's BARRA port back to your pool's return line.
- Kun żgur li l-konnessjonijiet kollha huma siguri u ma jgħaddix ilma minnhom biex tevita t-tnixxijiet.
4.3. Konnessjoni Elettrika
The Hotsplash HS40-4KW comes with a pre-wired power cord and a safety plug (RCD/GFCI).
- Ensure the power outlet is suitable for the unit's electrical requirements (refer to specifications).
- Ipplaggja l-korda tad-dawl fi żbokk elettriku ertjat.
- Before each use, press the "TEST" button on the plug, then the "RESET" button to ensure the safety device is functioning correctly.
5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
The Hotsplash HS40-4KW features an intuitive control panel with three buttons for easy operation.
5.1. L-Ewwel Bidu
- Ensure the pool filter pump is running and water is flowing through the heat pump. The heat pump requires water flow to operate.
- Plug in the heat pump and perform the RCD/GFCI test (Section 4.3).
- The unit will typically start automatically or can be turned on using the power button on the control panel.
5.2. L-issettjar tat-Temperatura Mixtieqa
Use the control panel buttons to adjust the target water temperature. Refer to the display for the current water temperature and the set temperature.
- Agħfas il- SET button to enter temperature adjustment mode.
- Uża l- UP u 'L isfel arrows to increase or decrease the desired temperature.
- Agħfas SET mill-ġdid jew stenna ftit sekondi biex is-setting jiġi ssejvjat.
5.3. Operazzjoni Normali
The heat pump will automatically turn on and off to maintain the set temperature, provided there is continuous water flow from the pool pump. The fan will operate to draw in ambient air for heat exchange.
6. Manutenzjoni
Manutenzjoni regolari tiżgura prestazzjoni ottimali u testendi l-ħajja tal-pompa tas-sħana tiegħek.
6.1. Tindif
- Naddaf il-barra tal-unità perjodikament b'ċarruta ratba u damp drapp. Tużax kimiċi ħarxa jew tindif li joborxu.
- Ensure the air intake and exhaust grilles are free from debris, leaves, and other obstructions. Blockages can reduce efficiency.
6.2. Winterization (If Applicable)
If you live in an area where temperatures drop below +10 °C and you will not be using the pool, it is recommended to winterize the heat pump:
- Skonnettja l-provvista tal-enerġija.
- Drain all water from the heat pump by disconnecting the water hoses.
- Store the unit in a dry, protected area, or cover it with a breathable, waterproof cover if left outdoors.
