Pump and Controller Recommendations
Pump Selection:
- Recommended: Danner Magnetic Drive Pumps (2400 GPH – 3600 GPH)
- Ensure pumps are rated for under 10 PSI max pressure. Contact our tech support for compatibility with higher-pressure pumps such as pool/spa pumps.
Digital Controller:
- The controller continuously monitors incoming water temperature. It turns the compressor and fan on when the water temperature exceeds your desired set point and off once the target temperature is reached. Constant water flow is required for proper functioning.
