Hp1100 pool heater turns on no instructions

Put a temp sensor after the heater and then measure the resistance and find the temp from this chart.

Subtract the system temp from before the heater to after the heater to get the temp rise.

Thxs only came down slightly after backwashing

Ok I’ll look for some Hayward or similar which attach on like my other one and see if there is space on the command unit

 

[JamesW]

We can estimate the flow at about 55 to 60 GPM.

You are not going to connect the temp sensor to anything.

Just measure the resistance wire to wire and then use the chart to get the temp.

 

[JamesW]

60 gpm = 3,600 gallons per hour or 30,000 lbs per hour.

If the heat pump puts out X btu/hr, then the expected temp rise is X/30,000.

Y = X/30,000

X = 30,000 Y.

Y = Temp rise.

X = BTU/Hr.

Y = Temp after heater - temp before heater.

For example, if the temp before the heater is 80 and the temp after the heater is 83.3, then the heater is producing about 100,000 btu/hr.

(83.3 - 80)30,000 = 99,000 btu/hr.

Y = X/30000, y from 0 to 5 - Wolfram|Alpha

Thanks James all makes sense. I think my heater isn’t giving any hot water out at all as when the pool guy put the Freon in a could feel the hot water going into the pool now nothing and not even any water below the unit. If the fan is running but not heating I was going to take a guess and change the capacitor which is pretty rusted.

 

[Pkhpool]

Then once he is working again add the probes as currently I think it’s not kicking on the compressor just the fan is running

[Pkhpool]

This guy is great the harness was shot, the weird thing is it was running then buzzing nothing just the fan running, I’ll see if the ac guy will come back first

 

[Pkhpool]

The unit I have is older than this unit, I just gave my guy 600$ for Freon hoping he will come back and give it the once over as it ran for 1 day

 

[JamesW]

the harness was shot

Is your harness bad?

Can you replace it?

 

[Pkhpool]

No on the video you sent me it was shot. With mine working then stopping but the fan running I may just switch the capacitor for 12$ and see if the ac guy can come back as it only ran for one day

 

[Pkhpool]

Ok and it continues the pool ac guy came back and told me it’s a “Locked compressor motor added a hard start didn’t help “

And tried to sell me a new unit, I was going to get a new capacitor just to check below or should I over size as the capacitor in there is all rusted

I would be cautious about putting any significant money into an older heater.

At some point, you have to cut your losses and stop putting money into a unit that is not going to be reliable.

 

[JamesW]

The unit I have is older than this unit, I just gave my guy 600$ for Freon hoping he will come back and give it the once over as it ran for 1 day

Exactly why many techs will not work on older units.

They do the work and then it does not work and you expect them to come back for free and keep working on it.

Some customers even refuse to pay if they do not pay immediately based on the heater not working.
