Section 2. Warning and Safety Instructions
SAFETY INFORMATION,
(cont’d.)
WARNING
—
Risk of fire or explosion from incorrect fuel use or faulty fuel conversion.
Do not try to run a
heater set up for natural gas on propane gas or vice versa. Only qualified service technicians should
attempt to convert heater from one fuel to the other. Do not attempt to alter the rated input or type of
gas by changing the orifice. If it is necessary to convert to a different type of gas, consult your Pentair
dealer. Serious malfunction of the burner can occur which may result in loss of life. Any additions,
changes, or conversions required in order for the appliance to satisfactorily meet the application
needs must be made by a Pentair dealer or other qualified agency using factory specified and
approved parts. The heater is available for use with natural gas or LP (propane) gas only. It is not
designed to operate with any other fuels. Refer to the nameplate for the type of gas the heater is
equipped to use.
• Use heater only with the fuel for which it is designed.
• If a fuel conversion is necessary, refer this work to a qualified service technician or gas supplier
before putting the heater into operation.
WARNING
—
Risk of fire or explosion from flammable vapors.
Do not store gasoline, cleaning fluids, varnishes,
paints, or other volatile flammable liquids near heater or in the same room with heater.
WARNING — Risk of explosion if unit is installed near propane gas storage.
Propane (LP) gas is heavier
than air. Consult local codes and fire protection authorities about specific installation requirements
and restrictions. Locate the heater away from propane gas storage and filling equipment as specified
by the Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, CAN/CSA B149.2
(latest edition) or ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition).
WARNING — Risk of fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, or asphyxiation if exhaust venting system leaks.
Only qualified service technicians should attempt to service the heater, as leakage of exhaust
products or flammable gas may result from incorrect servicing.
WARNING — Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correctly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly
when installing heater.
Do not use a drafthood with this heater, as the exhaust is under
pressure from the burner blower and a draft hood will allow exhaust fumes to blow into the room
housing the heater. The heater is supplied with an integral venting system for outdoor installation.
A vent conversion kit (
See Page 24 for Part Numbers for Conversion Kits) is available for installations
in enclosures (Canada) or indoors (U.S.). Use the specified venting, and only the specified venting,
when heater is installed in an enclosure or indoors. In Canada, this pool heater can only be installed
outdoors or in an enclosure that is not normally occupied and has no openings directly into occupied
areas. See
Page 19 for enclosure venting requirements.
CAUTION — Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Wiring errors can also destroy the control board.
• Connect heater to
120
or
240
Volt, 60 Hz., Single Phase power only.
• Verify proper operation after servicing.
• Do not allow children to play on or around heater or associated equipment.
• Never allow children to use the pool or spa without adult supervision.
• Read and follow other safety information contained in this manual prior to operating this pool
heater.
