2. Configuração e instalação

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your heat pump. This section outlines the general steps for setting up your unit.

2.1 Conexões de encanamento

The heat pump should be installed after your pool's filter system. Water flows from the pool pump, through the filter, and then into the heat pump before returning to the pool. The unit is compatible with 1.25" and 1.5" hoses. A filter pump with a flow rate of 1000-1200 GPH is suggested.

It is highly recommended to install bypass valves to allow for maintenance or to bypass the heater when not in use. The heat pump includes 1.5" male thread hose fittings for easy connection.

2.2 Conexão elétrica

The VARMINPOOL 16000BTU heat pump operates on 110-120V / 60Hz. Ensure that the electrical supply is properly grounded and protected by an appropriate circuit breaker (15 amp recommended for this model) to prevent damage from electrical surges. Always disconnect power before performing any electrical work.

2.3 Dreno de Condensado

The unit will produce condensation during operation. Connect the provided condensate drain line to the bottom of the unit to direct water away from the heat pump and its surroundings.
