Machine Will Not Start
As a safety feature, the Heat Pump has a programmed time delay between provision of power and unit start, usually a few minutes. Wait for this time delay before making the following checks:
- Check electrical supply to the unit is ON.
- Check phases are in correct rotation (for three phase units only) Red and Green lights lit on Phasefail sequence relay. If red light is lit only this indicates a loss of phase or incorrect
- Check water flow
- Check electrical for loose connections and wiring.
- Check supply fuse.
- Check thermostat is correctly set.
Pool Will Not Heat;
- Check that the ejected air temperature is colder than incoming air. Check that the evaporator and internal pipes sweating. This is evidence of heat removal from the air, suggesting that the heater is working.
- Check inlet louvres, outlet grill and condenser coil has satisfactory airflow and is not clogged.
- Check that thermostat is correctly set
- Check that water pump is running
- Check water filter is operational
- Check that inlet valves are not closed
