Pssstttt next time wire it on the load side of the time clock that controls the filter pump. No extra breaker needed and the heat won’t run unless water is flowing.
Hi Ron , Thanks for the video ? What kind of linesman pliers are you using can you give me the brand name . They look really nice to work with … Thanks Again Eisenberg Electric. Simsbury ,Ct.
How does the heater know when the pump is running? Does the heater have a flow switch that only allows the heater to turn when the water is running through it? Sorry if this is a dumb question.
The heater has a pressure switch on the inlet of the piping system which will close the control circuit if that pressure sensor senses pressure - from the pump running - so the heater will run.
@@electricalron thanks for replying, i almost have my masters and am looking forward to start my journey in vancouver area, always curious about the permits and doing it right. One of the jobs u had, installing light fixtures in garage with piping and motion sensor, did you need permit for that? Or shed wiring Thanks!
A circuit breaker or outlet is acceptable because it's only required to be GFCI-protected. I will tell you the outlet will be cheaper than the circuit breaker. The outlet MUST BE 'WR' which means weather-resistant.
The pool water sensor as well as the pump pressure sensor and the control thermostat are all located inside of the heater. There can be options of a remote sensor control.
Why is it that some trades running their class-II wiring with no concept of dressing wires in a workmanship manner. I'm always surprised when I see HVAC equipment wired neatly some folks seem to like spaghetti.
