1. Important Safety Instructions
Please read this manual thoroughly before installation, operation, or maintenance of the Mxmoonant 11KW Pool Heater. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, property damage, or serious injury.
- Electrical Safety: This unit operates on 220V. Installation requires self-wiring by a qualified electrician. If used with 110V, it requires one ground wire and two live wires. Ensure all electrical connections comply with local codes and regulations.
- Disconnect Power: Always disconnect all power to the unit before performing any maintenance, inspection, or service.
- Circulation Pump Requirement: The pool heater requires connection to a circulation pump with a minimum power of 1HP (0.735KW) for proper operation and water flow. Do not use submersible or booster pumps.
- Installation Environment: Suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation. Ensure adequate ventilation and clearance around the unit.
- Obstruction: Do not obstruct the access panel or any vents on the unit.
- Water Quality: Ensure proper water chemistry is maintained in the pool or spa to prevent damage to the heating element and other components.

4. Installation
4.1 Electrical Connection
Electrical installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national and local electrical codes. The unit is designed for 220V operation. For 110V systems, specific wiring is required (one ground wire and two live wires).
- Ensure the main power supply is disconnected before starting any wiring.
- Connect the electrical wires to the terminal block inside the heater's access panel as shown in the diagram.
- Ensure secure connections for GND (Ground), L1 (Live 1), and L2 (Live 2).
- Install a 63A circuit breaker for the heater.

4.2 Plumbing Connection
The heater must be connected in-line with your pool's filtration system, after the filter and before any chemical feeders. A circulation pump is essential for water flow through the heater.
- Ensure your circulation pump has a power rating of at least 1HP (0.735KW). Submersible or booster pumps are not suitable.
- Connect the inlet and outlet pipes of the heater to your pool's plumbing system using 1.5-inch (DN40) piping.
- Ensure all plumbing connections are watertight to prevent leaks.

5. Operation
5.1 Power On and Display
Once installation is complete and verified, turn on the main power supply to the heater. The digital touchscreen display will illuminate, showing the current water temperature.
Figure 5.1: Close-up of the pool heater's touchscreen display, illustrating how to set the desired temperature using 'SET' and arrow buttons. It also shows the real-time temperature display and the option to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
5.2 Setting the Temperature
- Press the SET button to enter temperature setting mode.
- Use the ▲ (Up) and ▼ (Down) arrow buttons to adjust the desired water temperature. The adjustable range is typically 25°C to 50°C (77°F to 122°F).
- Press SET again to confirm your selection, or wait a few seconds for the setting to automatically save.
- The unit can switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) display modes. Refer to the display for the current unit.
Recommended Temperatures:
- For Pools: 25-30°C (78-86°F)
- For Hot Tubs/Spas: 40°C (104°F)
5.3 Automatic Circulation Heating
The Mxmoonant Pool Heater features an intelligent automatic circulation heating system. Once the desired temperature is set, the heater will activate when the water temperature falls below the set point and deactivate when it reaches or exceeds the set point. This ensures consistent water temperature with optimal energy usage.
Figure 5.2: A graph demonstrating the automatic circulation heating process, showing how the water temperature fluctuates around the preset temperature (e.g., 30°C/86°F or 35°C/95°F) as the heater cycles on and off to maintain the desired warmth.

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your pool heater.
- Power Disconnection: Always turn off and disconnect the power supply to the heater before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
- Inspect Connections: Periodically check all electrical and plumbing connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion.
- Clean Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the heater with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Water Chemistry: Maintain proper pool/spa water chemistry as recommended by your pool professional to prevent scale buildup and corrosion inside the heater.
- Winterization: If the heater will be exposed to freezing temperatures, ensure it is properly drained and winterized according to local guidelines to prevent freeze damage.
