Plumbing Requirements

It is important that the pool and spa plumbing system be in accordance with local codes and the Recommended Hydraulic Schematics (page 11, 12 and 13). Before starting, please review the diagrams and the following recommended guidelines:

The spa should be at or above the level of the pool.

If the spa is attached to the pool, provide a dam between the two bodies of water to allow the spa to overflow into the pool. If the spa is not attached to the pool, an overflow, sufficient in size to carry a full pump-flow, must be installed at the water level in the spa.

Plumb a three-port Intake Valve on the suction-side of the filter pump, so that the center port of the valve is connected to the pump inlet. Connect the spa suction to one side of the Intake Valve, and the pool suction to the other side.

Plumb a three-port Return Valve on the return-side of the heater, so that the return water will enter the valve through the center port.

Connect the spa return to one side of Return Valve, and the pool return to the other side.

If required, install a spa make-up line (consisting of a manual gate or ball valve, for elevated spas install a check valve) to bypass the pool return line. This will enable some of the chemically-balanced water from the pool to cycle through the spa. The manual valve will allow the amount of bypass to be adjusted.

If the spa is to be constructed in concrete, special provision should be made at this time for the installation of the Spa-Side remote Control.

Select a convenient location in the deck or above water level in the spa wall (where the Spa-Side remote will not be submerged by the spa water), and install a 6 in. to 12 in. length of one inch PVC pipe to provide a receptacle for the Spa-Side remote. The pipe should be level and protrude beyond the finished surface of the spa. It will be cut back later at installation time. Reduce the pipe size down to ½ in. or ¾ in. conduit, and run it to the proposed Load/Power Center location at the equipment pad. Use sweep elbows for turns.

The Spa-Side remote will not be installed until the spa construction is completed.

For systems which incorporate a skimmer, it is possible to balance the amount of suction between the skimmer and main drain for maintenance purposes. This is easily accomplished by installing a manual three-port mixing valve at the suction line. Plumb one port to the skimmer and the other to the main drain.

If a “non-booster pump” pressure-side pool cleaner is being used, plumb a manual three-port

valve between the filter pump and filter, with the third port plumbed to the pool cleaner line, and install a motorized two-port Pool Cleaner Valve at this line. The motorized valve will automatically open whenever the Control System activates the pool cleaner.

If a booster pump pool cleaner is being used, plumb the booster pump so that its suction-side is connected to the pool return, after the heater, and as close to the ground as practical.

IntelliTouch Personality Kit Installation Guide

Page 17

Plumb the solar feed and return lines between the filter and the heater. Install a three-port valve at the feed line. Use a solar valve (model SOL-2T), to allow automatic draining of the panels.

A solar booster pump should be used when the distance to the panels exceed 200 ft., or the

panels are elevated higher than 25 ft.

Glazed solar panels require a drain valve (model HW-5B) to allow draining of the panels. This

prevents damage from overheating water. Install a drain valve at the solar feed line and connect to the pool fill line.

Salt Chlorine Generator (SCG): IntelliChlor IC40 or IC20 salt chlorine generator cell with check

valve at the heater output. Refer to IntelliChlor User’s Guide (P/N 520589) for plumbing requirements.

Equipment Location

All equipment, with the exception of the Spa-Side remote, must be located at least 10 ft. from the water’s edge.

5. Set both valve actuators (CVA-24T) for suction and return. Use the toggle switch on the rear of the CVA-24 to withdraw and return water from the pool.

Note:

With the filter pump operating, if the water is not being removed and returned to the pool, it may be necessary to reverse the RETURN with VLV A (or VLV B) plugs on the Personality board.

Testing the auxiliary relays

Affix the auxiliary relay labels to the appropriate buttons on the Outdoor Control Panel. If necessary, write the function on the control panel.

• Toggle the filter pump, each auxiliary circuit, heater and solar and verify the function. Press

the SYSTEM CONTROL button to set the system in “AUTO” mode when done.

Solar System Installation

• To ensure maximum flow of water through the solar panels, a solar booster pump should be added if panels are installed at a very high elevation.

• It is recommended that the solar panels are mounted in a way that gravity will allow draining whenever the filter pump is not on.

• For systems with glazed panels, damage can occur from overheating if the filter pump is still running after the solar has turned off. To enable glazed panels to automatically drain whenever the solar turns off (even if the filter pump is still running), a 1/2" motorized solar drain valve should be plumbed from the solar feed line, through a check valve, to a zero psi point (such as pool fill line or jet air intake).

Solar System Start-Up

1. Switch power on to the IntelliTouch Load Center.

2. If pool cleaner protection has been added to the system, the pool cleaner pump motor should be activated whenever the pool cleaner timer is on. Momentarily turn pool cleaner on and off to check the motor is operating correctly.

3. Check that Solar Valve is in “solar bypass” position, diverting water away from solar panels. If Solar Valve is staged incorrectly (diverting water to the solar panels), reverse switch on back of Valve Actuator (change from ON1 to ON2, or vice-versa). The Valve Actuator will automatically rotate to the correct position.

4. Check that Solar Valve has rotated from the “solar bypass” position to the “solar” position, diverting water through the solar panels.

5. The system is now ready to be operated as desired.

Pool Cleaner Protection

Recommended for use in pool systems which utilize a “booster pump” pool cleaner. This feature automatically turns off the pool cleaner pump for a few minutes whenever solar is initiated. This will protect the pump from damage caused by air in the solar panels at system start-up.

Affixing the System Wiring Diagram Label

To affix the wiring diagram label on the enclosure inside front door:

1. Open the enclosure front door.

2. Peel the backing off the wiring diagram label.

3. Position the label in middle of the inside of the front door. Apply even pressure on the surface of the label to secure in place.
