FibroPool FH120 Swimming Pool Heat Pump Instruction Manual

Modello: FH120

Introduzione

The FibroPool FH120 is an electric heat pump designed to efficiently heat above-ground and in-ground swimming pools and spas. This unit transfers heat from the air into your pool water, offering an energy-efficient alternative to traditional gas or propane heaters. It is suitable for in-ground pools up to 5,000 gallons and above-ground pools up to 15-foot round or 12 by 18-foot oval. For optimal performance, it is recommended for use in humid climates with temperatures down to 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

Informazioni sulla sicurezza

AVVERTIMENTO: To prevent electric shock and injury from rotating components, always isolate the unit electrically before attempting any maintenance or removing panels. Ensure all electrical connections are performed by a qualified electrician and comply with local codes and regulations. Keep children and pets away from the unit during operation.

Do not block the air intake or exhaust vents of the heat pump. Maintain adequate clearance around the unit for proper airflow. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for installation and operation to ensure safe and efficient use.

Configurazione e installazione

The FH120 heat pump features a slim profile, measuring 16"x40"x24", allowing for various mounting options. Proper installation is crucial for performance and safety. The unit should be placed on a stable, level surface with sufficient clearance for airflow and maintenance access.

Collegamenti idraulici

Connect the heat pump to your pool's filtration system. Water flows from the pool pump, through the filter, then into the heat pump's "WATER IN" port, and finally exits the "WATER OUT" port back to the pool. Ensure all connections are secure and watertight to prevent leaks. It is recommended to install bypass valves to isolate the heater for maintenance or chemical treatments.

The digital control panel provides convenient temperature setting and monitoring. An optional extension cable allows for remote mounting of the control panel.

Impostazione della temperatura desiderata

  1. Ensure the heat pump is in standby mode (machine shut off, displaying "ROOM" temperature). If it is currently running, press the power button to put it into standby.
  2. Press the "SET" button. The display will show "NO." and "VALUE".
  3. To adjust the desired temperature, press and hold both the "UP" and "DOWN" arrow buttons simultaneously for approximately 5 seconds until you hear a beep.
  4. Once the beep sounds, you can use the "UP" and "DOWN" arrow buttons to adjust the target temperature to your desired setting.
  5. After setting the temperature, allow the display to return to the standby mode automatically (it will save the value).
  6. Press the power button again to restart the heat pump. The unit will begin heating to the newly set temperature. Note that it may take between 30 seconds and 2 minutes for the unit to kick back on and begin heating.
