Above ground heat pump  

Hey everyone who’s posting and emailing questions, I’m getting to them as fat as I can. Apologies for the wait.

Hi, these are the settings I have mine set to and it works great, though on colder nights you’ll have to watch the defrost time or you’ll wake up to a lot of ice. Also make sure it’s pumping at 14-17 gallons per minute, I think that’s the most important part: I put the temperatures below in C&F. Hope this helps. Thank you! 1 95°F = 35°C 2 2°F 3 b2 (I think it’s because it’s unable to display the 3rd digit) 4 1 (in case of a power failure. It will turn back on if set at one if it’s set at zero, it will not.) 5 10°F = -12°C 6 -2°F = -19°C 7 34°F = 1°C 8 10°F = -12°C 9 I think this setting changes it to Celsius or Fahrenheit 1/0

Yes it has definitely been doing better with the higher temps. I’m at 87 degrees now.

You should notice a small difference in about a day-anywhere from 2-6 degrees depending on pool size and on the outside temperature. I’ve just had to drain and refill mine, about 10K gallons and it took about 5 days to heat above 80 degrees but we’ve been super hot in Utah the last few weeks (almost and sometimes over 100 degrees) so it heated quickly this time for me. The best way I think to make sure it’s heating ok is to hang the output hose over the edge of your pool for a day or two to make sure you have it at 17 gallons per minute. With your hand in your pool water and close to the heated water coming in you’ll notice a difference in temperature.

It's been around 60 at night lows and 75 day highs.

Yes that is normal. It will take about a week or two to get up into the 80s.

That’s actually really good temperature gain in 24 hours.

Hi @jason, I have the same heater-mine is not heating at all after 36 hours. Can you please tell me what settings you have? Mine has different options than what is in this video

@@jsparky87 can you tell me what options you have? Also do you have it diverted to have only 14-17 gpm go through the heater? Paste your options here and I’ll fill in the best settings I’d use. Also if you can put your average day and night temp that would be helpful.

P4 means not enough power or not enough water flow in the unit. If you’d like to email me pictures of your setup I could give you suggestions cyle@me.com

@@Aussaliers it’s a pretty strong pump it’s pumping the water pretty strong into the pool I thought maybe it was something wrong with my settings thank you for helping

It’s the way the camera recorded it, I’m not exactly sure how to make it look good on the camera but yes the screen gives you options a,b and c, then options 1 through 9 0:20 No. Meaning Range Default Changeable A Water input temperature (actual) -2~210°F N/A B Exhaust temperature (actual) -2~210°F N/A C Copper temperature (actual) -2~210°F N/A 1 Heating setting water temperature 59°F~95°F 81°F YES 2 Water temperature difference to restart 2°F~ 18°F 4°F YES 3 Exhaust temperature protection 86°F~ 176°F 117°F YES 4 Automatic restart 0/1 1 YES 5 Automatic defrost cycle time 10-90min 40min YES 6 Automatic defrost setting temperature -22°F ~32°F 32°F YES 7 Temperature of exit auto-defrost mode 34°F~86°F 36°F YES 8 Time of exit auto-defrost mode 10-40min 30min YES

Thank you for making this video! I bought one of these and it’s bewildering!

@abav811 Your welcome I hope you were able to get yours running and working well. Mine is still going strong. Although it’s been a colder spring in Utah than usual so I’ve had to keep adjusting the defrost setting.

Hi. I have the same unit. I’ve had it on for a week now and it not heating. Any ideas?

⁠Hi I’m hoping you can help me. Mine is not heating up. Any ideas?
