Re: Swimming pool heat pump
check coils are clean - get nitro on em- checkur superheat, any dampers that are operating correctly and not slippin on shaft, also filters clean on air inlets- txv bulb insulated
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
Cheers install, evap coil is as clear as a bell, no dampers involved and no filters. Bulb is insulated, opened valve to try and increase evap pressure but it made no difference, however valve does modulate. Do you think it could be to do with the valve?
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
check ur superheat/subcooling
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
I should have said, heat pump is heating the pool water, it is a self contained unit located within the building so air passing through the evap is at around 18c, this air is then expelled out of the building.
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
lower the pool water setpoint so it reverts to heating the air- see if the pressures change- usually leaks onthe o ring on a danfoss solonoid
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
Evap fan running? Properly?
Airflow into/out of evap restricted? Leaves, grass, paper?
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
has the unit got a defrost cycle
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
the evap unit in the room is the room pressurised or is the air blowing back into the room ( is there airflow through the evap)?
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
I wonder if the duct to the outside of the building could be enough to restrict air flow through the evap. Not been back yet, but think I will remove this before going any further.
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
check the outlet grilles as they can get ****ted up due to bird mesh/insect screens
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
They were clear install, I can't think of any other way to get the pressure up other than restricting the water flow. The heat pump is only there to maintain water temp. There's an oil boiler there to bring it up to temp.
Re: Swimming pool heat pump
Water temp in/out
air temp in/out
subcool
superheat
what water temp is it maintaining at the moment, has the water flow rate changed, ie pool not heating quick enough so pump speed upped? Is there a cover for the pool? is is a Calorex unit?
