Important Features of Your New Heat Pump ® ThermoLink Heat Exchanger ® The heart of your heat pump is the patented ThermoLink heat exchanger. One of the primary causes of premature heat pump demise is the failure of the heat exchanger. Ordinary heat exchangers are made from a cupronickel alloy. This cupronickel material is susceptible to attack from the sanitizers used in pools and spas and from other related water chemistry conditions. Once the heat exchanger fails, the heat pump is ruined. Th

COOL WATER IN WARMED WATER OUT HOWA 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 water. If one considers Absolute Zero (the point where all heat is absent) occurs at -459º Fahrenheit, it becomes evident

MAINTENANCE & OPERATION (continued) Maintain Proper Water Flow • It is important to operate and maintain the 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. • Similar to a dirty filter, large amounts of debris in the pump and skimmer baskets can reduce water flow. Keep baskets free of debris. • Check for improper valve settings. A partially closed valv

MAINTENANCE & OPERATION (continued) Control Irrigation and Storm Run Off • Control Irrigation: In regions were wells are used for irrigation, water quality is sometimes poor, and water spray can damage heater components. Regardless of water quality, it is important that irrigation be directed away from the heat pump. • Prevent rain water runoff from pouring directly into the heater. The heater is designed to withstand normal rainfall, but solid streams of water from roof drip-lines may eventual
