WATER PIPING LEAK ?
When the unit operates, it will produce condensation that will drain from the bottom of the unit. Do not mistake
condensation with a water piping leak. There is a certain procedure to follow to check the unit for leaks: Shut the
heat pump and filtering system off. Allow all the condensation to drain from the unit for at least an hour or so.
Then start the circulation pump only, leave the heater off. If the unit is still leaking water steadily, you may have
a water piping leak. The unit should not condensate when the heater is off. Consult your dealer.
AIR FLOW
Do not install the unit in an area where the cooler discharge air may accumulate and be drawn back into the unit.
Provide ventilation through containment walls or fencing for the air intake if needed. Do not install this unit
indoors or in filtering system equipment rooms. Do not restrict the air flow in any way.
ROOF RUN OFF
To prevent large amounts of rain water from running through the unit you may need to install a gutter and down
spout when the roof has a sharp pitch. IMPORTANT: Do not allow roof run off water to rush through the
unit. Do not install the unit under roof valleys, where two roof sections meet. The two roof sections channel water
to the valley and will allow massive amounts of water to run through the unit at high velocity.
CLEANING
To clean the heater, you should take a sponge and mild soapy water and wipe the surfaces clean. Do not use a
pressurized garden hose to clean the heater. Never force water into the unit from any direction. You may use a
garden hose at low pressure with no nozzle attachment. Clean the evaporator coils at least twice a year. If you live
near the sea coast you will need to clean at least four times a year to remove salt and sand. Use a very soft brush
with soap and gently remove any build up. Clogged evaporator coils will reduce the efficiency of the unit and
cause corrosion. Use a fin comb to straighten any minor indentations in the evaporator coils
