After the water heater has been running for more than 24 hrs, it should be running at full capacity. The PSI reading should be in the region 150
If the meter index is in the green area, the water heater is running in the most efficient way and you do not need to adjust anything.
If the meter reading is in the red area but you have good water flow from the circulation pump, it may be as a result of low refrigerant gas (see below).
In the event that the pressure reading is in the red area ‘A’ (dia.2) it means there may be insufficient water flow. Prior to any adjustments make sure your filter is clean by using the ‘backwashing and rinse procedure (refer to your pool hand book for guidance). Check there are no obstructions in the suction lines i.e. Main Drain or Skimmer(s).
If you are unable to increase the flow rate, please contact your pool dealer as you may need to increase the size of the filtration pump or there is a lack of gas refrigerant. Loss of refrigerant gas is normally attributed to transit damage or the heater being manhandled incorrectly. In the unlikely event that there is a refrigerant loss a replacement heater maybe required.
In the event that the pressure reading is in the red area ‘B’ (dia.3) it means the water flow is too high. You may need to install a bypass to decrease the water flow until pressure meter enters the green area.
Please contact you dealer for advice.
