Installation Instructions
WARNING: Installation must be carried out by a qualified person
This section is provided for information purpose only and may vary depending on your location/
regulations/ availabl spac for installation
1. Pr -R quir m nts
Needed equipment for installation of heat pump:
Suitable power supply cable for unit’s power Usually 12-2+Ground protected by flexible conduit
A by-pass kit ( 3 way valve) , PVC pipe and fittings, Pipe cleaner/ primer, Medium Bodied Glue
Electrical tools, and a ,multimeter
A service disconnect or timer within 6 feet of the heater
An equipment pad, 16” x 32” x 4” thick or 2 pieces of concrete blocks, 16 x 16 x 4 inches each
2. Location
Please comply with the following rules about heat pump location choosing
1 Make sure the heater is not directly below the roof drains, such as gutter drain, or eaves
2 Be sure that the heater does not submerge in water in heavy rain
3 Be sure to install the drain adapters into the heaters, and attach the hose to direct the
condensation water Heater will produce gallons of water from condensation, every day
4 Confirm the unit is under well-ventilated conditions; fan discharge grill vent is not blocked ( Fan
blows outwards )
5 Keep at least 12 inches of clearance on the two short sides and the long radiator side
6 Keep at least 3 feet of clearance on the fan side of the heater
7 Keep the unit as far as possible away from children's reach and within 25 feet of the pool

DRAIN ADAPTERS
Please install the darin adapters beneath the heater prior to installation You can add 5/8 hose to
the adapters to direct the condensation water
PLUMBING
·A typical installation on a pool with a small pump, such as ½, ¾ hp pump with 1 1/2” pvc or
flexible pipes, just requires pipes to go in from the bottom and exit thru top
·For stronger systems, with 1 0 Hp and larger pumps, and 2 inch plumbing systems, a bypass
system should be installed
·If The heat pump is connected to a filtration circuit with a by-pass valve; The bypass valve
should be partially opened (throttled), while all the other valves should be completely
opened We suggest to open bypass 50% then adjust until the lowest volume of water going
through the heater, but no error messages ( EE-3, PL, EE1) are present This will give
enough water to the heater, and not restrict your flow
·The old system BYPASS path usually consists of 3 valves The New FIBROPOOL BY PASS
VALVE is just 1 valve That makes it possible to adjust water flow which passes through heat
pump

PIPE C NNECTI NS
1. FH 270 Features 1 1/2” SAE machine threads They are NOT the typical pipe threads You
can use the included unionized fittings with o rings, WITHOUT thread tape, or you can use
the conical hose adapters, WITH thread tape
2. All fittings and pipes used must be 1 1/2” Sch 40 ( Schedule 40) PVC pipe
3. Tighten all fittings by hand only If using the threaded hose adapters, give a ¼ turn with
pliers after hand tight Excessive tightening will crack fittings
4. A minimum of 6 inches of straight pipe must be used before any elbows/ fittings etc
5. Please support the pipes in the air, as gravity will eventually bend and break the fittings
6. If using flexible hoses, be sure to tighten the clamps well
7. Be sure to check your fittings and glue them properly, using pipe cleaner and a good grade
Medium bodied glue
8. Heaters have heat exchanger coils, therefore they increase back pressure
9. If your pool pump is larger than 1 horsepower, you should use a bypass valve This will help
water flow of your system to continueas original plumbing You simply need to get a 3 way
valve, and a Tee Refer to diagrams for the bypass set up
10. If you have 2 inch plumbing, use our 2 inch bypass valve and a 2 inch TEE, then use
reducers to 1 1/2” pipe to connect to the heater This way you will not compromise the water
flow
11. Be sure that WATER IN pipe is connected to the bottom, and WATER OUT pipe is on Top
Reversal will result in flow error codes
