CAUTION Shipping Damage MUST be reported to the Carrier IMMEDIATELY!!! Examine the exterior. Remove cover and examine compressor and piping for signs of damage. Warning: Prior to starting the heat pump, you must ensure that: Electricity is supplied to the heat pump. The filter pump is operating with a minimum water circulation of 22.5 gallons per minute (GPM). If these two conditions are not met, the heat pump with not start. In such case, the digital display thermometer will be unusable.

INTRODUCTION Dear Valued Customer, Thank you for purchasing this DPL product. We hope that you will derive as much pleasure from using this product as we did in manufacturing it. In order to bring you the best possible products, we want to know your comments about the product. You can e-mail us at info@dplpool.com or contact customer service at +1.450.818.4758.
DPL POOL HEAT PUMP FEATURES > Quietest model on the market: 50% quieter than competing products. > Digital display thermostat. > ROTARY or SCROLL energy-efficient compressor. > Aluminium/copper evaporator with one or two vertically-positioned ventilator(s). This configuration greatly reduces noise output while improving heat exchange efficiency. > Titanium double coil, according to model. Titanium heat exchangers are very resistant to all chemical imbalances.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS This manual is a guide to the proper installation of the DPL Pool Heat Pump. Improper installation may result in unsafe and dangerous conditions that will void the factory warranty. Prior to installation, read these instructions and any instructions that are packaged with separate pieces of equipment that make up the system. Please read these instructions thoroughly and carefully before attempting installation or operation.
OPERATING THE POOL HEAT PUMP The DPL Swimming Pool Heat Pump is designed for easy operation. The side panel contains a digital temperature control readout. The Heat Pump is set to reach and then maintain the selected pool water temperature, as long as the pool pump is running. To start the unit: > Press the button . In normal operating mode, the display indicates the water temperature in centigrade degrees. To stop the heat pump, press the button.
GENERAL INFORMATION ON HEAT PUMP OPERATION Beginning of season: > Make sure that the electrical breaker for the pool heat pump is in the OFF position. > Be Ensure the water lines and the heat pump are reconnected and/or drain valves are closed. > Clean the pool filter and make sure the water is flowing adequately through the pool return line (22.5 – 70 GPM). > Complete your normal preparation and/or cleaning of the pool for the start of the season.
POOL HEAT PUMP INSTALLATION Determining Optimum Location Choose a location where the noise of the heat pump, when running, and the discharged air will not disturb the neighbours. Install the Pool Heat Pump Heater unit on a flat, stable surface that can support its weight and does not generate any unnecessary noise and vibration. Clearance Choosing the location of your heat pump is very important. You should install it as close as possible to the filter system.
POOL HEAT PUMP INSTALLATION Securing the unit We recommend that you secure the unit to the concrete pad by using four (4) TAPCON screws and washers. (See drawing below.
POOL HEAT PUMP INSTALLATION Water flow To minimize heating time, make sure all water valves are open completely, that the water level of the pool is at the correct height. The DPL Pool Heat Pump is designed to operate at full flow through the heat exchanger (condenser). A flow rate of 22.5-70 gallons per minute (GPM) should be maintained. Caution: Either no flow or a low flow rate will cause the unit to shut down. The Pool Heat Pump will not operate without a flow of water.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS > A qualified person must install the unit in accordance with all federal, provincial and local codes and guidelines. > An electrical circuit exclusive to the heat pump must be used as the power supply. > The supply voltage, size of over-current protective device, and size of supply conductors for the heat pump are shown below. > The Pool Heat Pump condensing unit must be connected to a properly grounded electrical supply. You must ensure this unit is properly grounded.
CONNECTING ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS You must remove the electrical connection box cover to access the electrical compartment. Wiring connections must be made exactly as shown in the wiring diagram found under the top cover inside inside the Pool Heat Pump. A disconnect switch must be installed near the outdoor unit for easy disconnection of power to the Pool Heat Pump.

PLUMBING SPECIFICATION Installation The typical plumbing diagram illustrates the standard plumbing layout with a single heat pump unit. Following the diagram from left to right, the plumbing sequence is as follows: Pool Pool Pump Filter Heat Pump Check Valve Chemical Loop Chlorinator Pool A detachable connection (union) must be utilized immediately adjacent to heater to facilitate servicing and winterizing of the unit.
PLUMBING SPECIFICATIONS B C A A: WATER INLET B: WATER OUTLET C: DETACHABLE CONNECTION (union) included C Factory connections are for a 1 1/2" union nut. Join the Pool Heat Pump inlet and outlet with rigid PVC (schedule 40). All joints must be glued with PVC glue. If rigid pipe is not available, you can use soft or flexible piping with stainless steel clamps. When the piping installation is completed, start the pool pump and check the system for leaks.
MAINTENANCE To ensure optimum performance of the heat pump, follow these recommendations: > Backwash the pool filter on a regular basis in order to ensure proper flow rate through the pool heater. > Keep the surfaces of the coil (evaporator) clean and free of any obstruction such as papers, leaves or other debris. The aluminium fins can be easily and safely cleaned using a low pressure water spray.

TROUBLESHOOTING The digital display thermometer will not provide a reading: The electrical breaker has tripped. Turn the electrical breaker back on. The water flow rate is insufficient or the filter pump is not working. DPL heat pumps are designed to operate with a minimum water flow rate of 22.5 gallons per minute (GPM). Start the water pump. If you are unable to activate the digital display thermostat, contact our Service Centre at +1.450.818.4758.
TROUBLESHOOTING DPL heat pumps are equipped with safeguards that will stop operation to protect your unit in certain situations: High pressure switch The high pressure circuit breaker protects the compressor in the event of any over-pressure in the refrigerant system. High pressure conditions are usually the result of insufficient water flow in the heat exchanger. To remedy the situation, simply check that there are no obstruction in the water supply circuit and/or clean out the filter system.
TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING Warning: Please do not modify the parameters in the temperature controller programming without a valid reason. To access the temperature controller programming mode, you must simultaneously press and hold the buttons for five (5) seconds. The indicator will then light up and the ‘’F0~F8’’ code will be displayed.
PRODUCT WARRANTY DPL heat pumps are warranted against material and manufacturing defects for a period of one (1) year, including parts and labour. The compressor is also warranted for a period of one (1) year. The warranty period is deemed to start on the installation date and the limited warranty plan form must be sent within sixty days following the installation. DPL is not responsible for: > Normal maintenance.
