WELCOME TO THE AQUACAL FAMILY Congratulations on your wise decision to make an AquaCal heat pump part of your home. Since 1981, AquaCal has maintained the worldwide lead in the manufacture of swimming pool & spa heat pumps. Your new heat pump is not only a great investment, but also the most cost effective method available for heating pools and spas. For example, as a means to heat pool or spa water, your heat pump is up to 400% more efficient than gas, and, when compared to electri

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION Used and maintained properly, your heat pump will provide year-upon-year of safe and economical service. However, as with any mechanical or electrical device, to get the most from your heat pump–while insuring personal safety for you and others–certain operational and maintenance factors must be observed. Likewise, excepting a few minor owner-capable maintenance items (explained later in this manual), repair and service of your heat pump must be performed

WATER CHEMISTRY & TEMPERATURE FACTORS Water Temperature Safety Factors Failure to heed the following may result in WARNING ! permanent injury or death. Prolonged immersion in water warmer than normal body temperature may cause a condition known as HYPERTHERMIA. The symptoms of hyperthermia include: unawareness of impending hazard, failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit spa, and unconsciousness. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can g

HOW A HEAT PUMP WORKS THE FOLLOWING EXPLANATION IS PROVIDED TO HELP YOU IN UNDERSTANDING WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR HEAT PUMP… A Heat Pump Does Not Make Heat… Heat pumps are so extraordinarily efficient because they do not need to produce heat in order to warm pool or spa water. Rather, heat pumps simply transfer heat from the outside air into the pool or spa water. If one considers that absolute “0”–the point where all heat is absent–occurs at 459º Fahrenheit below zero, it beco

GETTING YOUR HEAT PUMP STARTED & STOPPED ATTENTION: THIS IS A QUICK-START GUIDE…For more complete information concerning the digital controller features and programming, see: Owner’s Instructions for HP7 Digital Heat Pump Controller, located in the appendix of this manual. INITIAL START UP 1. Start the water circulator pump. NOTE: THE POOL FILTER PUMP MUST BE OPERATING FOR THE HEAT PUMP TO BEGIN HEATING. ANYTIME THE POOL FILTER PUMP IS TURNED OFF, THE HEAT PUMP WILL ALSO BE OFF.

GETTING YOUR HEAT PUMP STARTED & STOPPED (Continued) 8. In operation, whenever the actual (displayed) water temperature falls below the desired set point, the unit will start heating after an initial time delay of 3-4 minutes. NOTE: THE HEAT PUMP INCORPORATES AN ANTI-SHORT CYCLE TIME DELAY. SHOULD OPERATION BE INTERRUPTED, RESTART WILL BE DELAYED BY APPROXIMATELY 4-MINUTES. CONTINUOUS USAGE AND WATER AROUND UNIT o If you have followed the directions up to this point, you should be o

MAINTENANCE PLANNED MAINTENANCE PROGRAM AquaCal offers a very reasonably priced, professionally-performed, Planned Maintenance Program….See APPENDIX for full details. GENERAL MAINTENANCE o You should have your heat pump inspected and maintained on an annual basis by a qualified pool heat pump specialist. Additionally, if your heat pump is located on the beach, or at a sea wall where salt spray and sand can affect the unit, more frequent service may be necessary. For Service Plan inform

MAINTAINING PROPER WATER FLOW o It is important to operate and maintain your filter according to the manufacturer’s specifications. As a filter gets dirty, the water flow to the heat pump is reduced. The higher the pressure on the filter gauge, the lower the flow rate. o Similar to a dirty filter, large amounts of debris in the pump basket can reduce water flow…Keep basket free of debris. o Check for improper valve settings. A partially closed valve after the filter, or a full-ope

SEASONAL USE & SHUT DOWN DURING THE SWIM SEASON o During the swim season, even if the pool or spa is not in use, allow water to flow through the heater. o This eliminates the need to reposition valves when you do wish to heat your pool or spa. FREEZE PROTECTION / EXTENDED SHUT DOWNS o In areas where freezing conditions are a rare occurrence, allow the filtration system to run continually through the freeze period. Typically, during light freeze conditions, circulating water will not

Winterizing (Continued) To Winterize a Heat Pump Equipped with an External Drain (Per Figure-3) 1. Disconnect all electrical power to the heater; turn OFF circulating pump. 2. At the two (2) connection unions, disconnect the plumbing to the heater (removal is counter-clockwise). 3. Locate the drain plug at lower, right-hand, front corner of heater. See Figure-3. 4. Using a 5/8”, box-end wrench, remove the drain plug (removal is counter- clockwise). 5. Permit all of the water to dr

TROUBLESHOOTING HEAT PUMP NOT RUNNING o Is the display lit? If not, ensure the main breaker (located at the power supply panel) and the disconnect switch (located near the heat pump) are both turned ON. o Does the display read “Flo”? If so , check to be sure that the circulating pump is operating and the filter is clean. There may also be a valve positioned incorrectly allowing water to by-pass the heat pump; be sure water is flowing through the heater. o Does the display read “OFF”

WATER LEAKING OUT OF THE HEAT PUMP (Is it a leak or just condensation from normal operation? Here’s how to find out). o Shut off your heat pump, leaving the pool pump running. In a couple of hours there should be a marked reduction in the amount of water around the bottom of the heat pump. o Or, as an alternate method to check for a water leak, you can test the water draining out the base for the presence of the sanitizer you are using in your pool or spa. Use your water test kit
