Water Flow
As the graphs and table below illustrate, providing the right water flow volume is vital to the performance of the heat exchanger. If the flow rate of either the hot water supply, or the pool water circuit is too low, the heat exchanger will not perform at its designed efficiency and will be unable to transfer all the available heat energy in to the pool water.
