2.4 Installation
Location
The Turbo unit must be installed in an open, well ventilated area. It is recommended that the unit is installed outside, however if it is installed indoor, it must meet the minimum floor area requirements and have adequate ventilation. Failure to do so will result in degradation of performance or, in extreme cases, irreversible damage.
The location is recommended to not be within direct sunshine and exposure to the elements. If the unit is installed in a location exposed to direct sunlight and rain, it is recommended that a protective roof is installed above the unit. This will help protect the unit from debris being sucked in and degrading performance. It will also help increase performance by reducing the large amount of added heat from the sun.
The unit must be installed at a distance from the pool within the given minimum and maximums. This is to protect the unit from direct water splashing of chemically treated water and from any losses or gains in temperature through long pipe runs.

	Minimum	Maximum
Horizontal length	5m	20m
Vertical length	5m Below	5m Above

It is highly recommended that all piping, between the pool and unit, is insulated. This will also stop condensation forming on the piping. If piping is installed inside roof spaces, insulation must be used.
Every Turbo unit contains mounting bars on the base of the unit to allow it to be easily secured to wall brackets or ceiling hangers. Otherwise, it can be placed directly on a flat surface with its anti-vibration rubber feet.
Always ensure that the location picked allows for future maintenance and servicing access.
The control display must be mounted with protection from direct water splashing and rain. It is ideal to mount this indoor and away from the pool/bath. The room should have low humidity.
Clearances
The unit must be installed with the minimum clearance distances maintained. Failure to do so may result in degradation of performance or, in extreme cases, irreversible damage. Adequate spacing must also be maintained for future servicing and maintenance.

Airflow
The Turbo unit contains two 450mm fans that push through 4000cfm of air over the condensers of the unit.
If the unit is installed in an enclosure area, the same amount of air must be circulated through the room to ensure that the unit can maintain full performance.
Waterflow
Every Turbo unit is equipped with a water flow switch with a preset minimum flowrate. If this flowrate is not adequate, the sensor will trigger the unit to stop to protect it from freezing the internal heat exchanger tanks.
Water flow should be maintained within a set range for optimised performance. It should always remain inside this range.

	Minimum	Maximum
Flow Rate (m/s)	60	80

Condensation
When the Turbo is set to heat the water, the condensers will become cold enough to condensate. In high humidity climates, the unit can condensate a significant amount of water. It is recommended that the unit is installed on a drip tray to capture this runoff.
Connections

Plumbing
The Turbo unit has two 40mm PVC barrel union connections. 40mm Pressure fittings are used and 40mm pressure pipe is required for all plumbing.
If a fixed speed pump with a greater flowrate than the optimal values given is used, it is recommended that a bypass valve is installed to reduce the flowrate to the optimal. This will improve the efficiency of the unit and is a simpler option than a variable speed pump.Turbo units should also be fitted with a filter inline to prevent debris from becoming stuck inside the heat exchangers and on the flow switch.All piping must be insulated to reduce performance loses and reduce condensation forming. Filters also have a large surface area and is also recommended to be insulated.

Wiring
The Turbo unit has three basic connections that must be completed for the unit to correctly operate. The connections are main power supply, pump, and data.
All connections must be completed within local regulations and standards by a licensed electrician.
Pump power output has a max current of 10A continuous.
All wiring is complete through terminal connections behind the side panel on the unit. This side panel must be reinstalled correctly following the completion of wiring to ensure full ingress of water protection.

1. Remove the side panel of the Turbo unit, located on the right side. Eight M5x16mm button screws must be removed for the side panel to fall away. This will require a 3mm Hex key.
2. A button hardness will be connected to the side panel and can be disconnected by unplugging it from the main control board or by the connector on the button itself.
3. The supply cable can now be pushed through the right most conduit terminator located below the side panel.
4. Push the pump power cable through the middle conduit terminator.
5. Wire the active, neutral and earth wires to their respective terminals on the main power board for both supply and pump power cables.
6. Push the data cable through the left most conduit terminator and wire the twisted pair to the control board.
7. Reconnect the button harness and rescue the side panel. Ensure all hex screws are reinstalled anddo not overtighten.

Display
Mounting
The Display is not waterproof. It must be mounted away from any direct water splashing and rain. It is ideal to mount the screen in an area or room away from water where the humidity is also low.
The display has two options for mounting. There is a mounting plate attached to the back that can be mounted to the wall, allowing the display to be removed at any time. The second option is recessed into a wall, allowing the front panel to be flush with the wall.

Maintenance

It is recommended that the unit is check yearly to ensure that it is operating at full performance. In installations close to the ocean or corrosive environments, this should be done more frequently at half yearly, minimum.
Water quality management is subject to use load and the amount of water being used. It is recommended to contact your local pool shop for advice on how to treat the water as this will need to be done a regular basis.
Disconnect all power to the unit or display while cleaning.
Warning: Isolate and disconnect all power before opening unit for servicing.
Warning: relevant maintenance must be performed by all relevant certified trades.

6.1 Turbo Unit
Paint
The turbo unit is constructed with marine grade aluminium that is powder coated to help protect the unit.
The paint will maintain in good condition if it is regularly looked after and is not placed in an environment that advances the degradation.
Avoid areas that will be exposed to erosive winds, such as ocean winds, and areas with direct and constant UV exposure.
To clean the paint the following can be performed.

1. Use water and a cloth to remove loose debris.
2. Use a mild detergent and a non-abrasive cloth/brush to clean the surface. For tougher marks, use only solvents such as Isopropyl alcohol. Never use aggressive solvents.
3. Wash unit with clean water.

Heat Exchangers
All systems should be fitted with a filter to reduce the possibility of debris getting stuck inside the heat exchangers. However, sometimes the filter may not be sufficient to keep the titanium coils and pipes from building a coating of grease and oils from users.
For best advice on maintaining a clean system, consult your local pool shop.
Condensers and Cabinet
Cleaning the cabinet and condensers is vital for continual performance. If too much dirt and debris become stuck on the condensers, it is likely to lead to reduced airflow.
The unit must be opened in order to gain access to both sides of the condensers. This also allows a perfect time to remove all loose debris inside the cabinet.

1. Remove the eleven M5x10mm Button head screws with a 3mm Hex key.
2. Pull the cover up and forward.
3. Disconnect the two fan cables at the inline connectors.
4. Place cover on a flat surface without resting any weight on the fan blades.

To clean the cabinet, use a vacuum or leaf blower to remove large debris. For dust, use a small brush or duster.
The condensers can be cleaned with water or a spray coil cleaning aerosol.

1. Start by spraying the condensers with water to remove dust and debris.
2. If the condensers still contain grease, oil or other debris, use an aerosol coil cleaning spray. Follow the directions of the specific spray used.
3. Rinse the cleaning agent off the condensers.
4. Allow the unit to dry.
5. Ensure that the fan cables do not contain any water in the pins and then reattach both cables.
6. Mount cover and reattached screws.

6.2 Display Screen
The screen should only be cleaned with distilled water. Do not use soaps or solvents as this may damage the coating on the display.

1. Use a cloth to wipe the display and remove any dust and debris.
2. Wet a cloth with distilled water and wipe in a sweeping motion from top to bottom, and side to side using light pressure.
3. For any stubborn marks, an LCD display cleaning solution can be used. Use a small amount on a clean cloth and wipe in sweeping motions again.
4. Ensure all water has been dried before turning display back on.

Case
The case can be cleaned with a microfibre cloth, compressed air, and isopropyl alcohol. Never use water on the case as it may find its way to the internal circuit board and cause permanent damage.

1. Remove dust from the case using a clean microfibre cloth. Compressed air can also be used to blast dust in the connectors.
2. Use isopropyl alcohol on a clean cloth to wipe down case.
3. Allow time for the isopropyl alcohol to dry before turning the display back on.

6.3 Transportation
