    NORMAL RUNNING TIME The heat pump system extracts the heat from the out- side air and delivers it to your pool. Therefore it pro- duces more BTU's (heat) the warmer it is outside. So take advantage of the higher air temperatures during the day by setting the timer for the warmest hours. W in- ter operation (during cold fronts) may require long ...

Spa temperatures are 98 to a maximum of ...

    CHLORINA TOR PLACEMENT 1. All chlorinators should have a chemical resistant check valve and a loop plumbed at least 8 inches above the chlorinator , between it and the heater , as far down line from the heater as possible. 2.
