2.2 Water Pipe Connection

The heat pump is designed for hassle-free installation with versatile 1.9-inch adapters that connect to most above-ground and in-ground pool plumbing.

1. Remove the pre-installed pipe joints from the Water Outlet and Water Inlet ports on the machine.
2. Attach the external 1.9-inch PVC water pipe fittings to both the Water Outlet and Water Inlet ports.
3. Apply glue or wrap thread seal tape around the 1.9-inch PVC pipe ends before inserting them into the fittings to prevent leakage.

2.3 Drainage Pipe Installation

It is recommended to install the drain pipe before securing the machine in its final position.

1. Locate the drainage hole on the chassis of the heat pump.
2. Rotate the drain pipe slot onto the condensate outlet.
3. Ensure the drain pipe is securely attached to direct condensate away from the unit.

2.4 Electrical Connection and Voltage Check

The unit requires a 220-240V power supply. For safe and proper operation, please check the voltage at the main terminal block after installation using a multimeter.

1. Live to Ground: Measure the voltage between the L (Live) and GND (Ground) terminals. The meter should show a positive reading between 110V and 120V.
2. Neutral to Ground: Next, measure between the N (Neutral) and GND (Ground) terminals. Here, the meter should show a negative reading between -110V and -120V.
3. Line Voltage: Finally, measure between the L (Live) and N (Neutral) terminals. The reading should be positive and between 220V and 240V.

P1 and P2 terminals are for connecting to an external pump. If the pump exceeds 250W, a contactor is required. When connected, the heater controls the pump (the pump runs when the heater runs). For independent pump control, use a separate power supply.

3. Operating Instructions

Your MICOE heat pump offers flexible control options via its integrated touch screen and a smart mobile application.

3.1 Dual Smart Controls

You can command your pool's climate in two ways:

• Touch Screen: Adjust settings directly on the vibrant color touch screen located on the unit.
• Mobile App: Control the unit remotely via the mobile app from anywhere. Monitor temperature, set schedules, and fine-tune performance.

3.2 Temperature Settings and Modes

The heat pump supports both heating and cooling modes to maintain your desired pool temperature.

• Heating Mode: Set the desired temperature between 46°F and 104°F to warm your pool water.
• Cooling Mode: Set the desired temperature to cool your pool water, typically effective down to 82°F.
• Work Modes: Select between ECO, Standard, or Boost modes for optimized energy consumption and heating/cooling speed.

4. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your MICOE pool heat pump.

• Clean the Coils: Periodically inspect and clean the evaporator coils to ensure proper airflow and heat exchange efficiency. Remove any debris, leaves, or dirt.
• Check Water Flow: Ensure there is adequate water flow through the unit. Blockages in the pool filter or plumbing can reduce efficiency.
• Inspect for Leaks: Regularly check all pipe connections for any signs of water leakage.
• Winterization: In colder climates, follow proper winterization procedures to protect the unit from freezing temperatures. Consult a pool professional if unsure.
• Titanium Heat Exchanger: The corrosion-resistant titanium heat exchanger requires minimal maintenance under normal operating conditions.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MICOE pool heat pump, refer to the following basic troubleshooting steps:

• Unit Not Turning On: Check the power supply connection and ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped. Verify the power supply voltage as described in Section 2.4.
• Insufficient Heating/Cooling: Ensure the desired temperature is set correctly. Check for adequate water flow and clean the pool filter if necessary. Verify that the unit is operating in the correct mode (heating or cooling).
• Unusual Noises: While the unit operates quietly, any unusual loud noises may indicate an issue. Check for obstructions around the fan or contact customer support.
• Error Codes: If an error code appears on the display, consult the full user manual for specific code interpretations and solutions.

If problems persist after attempting these steps, please contact MICOE customer service for further assistance.
