GrOUnD FaULt CIrCUIt IntErrUPtEr (GFCI )
Before your whirlpool heater can be installed, you must
install a separate 120VAC, 15 amp dedicated circuit with
a Ground Fault Circuit Interupter (GFCI) for the heater and
for the pump.
InItIaL Start UP
Prior to operation, make sure you have read and understand the Important Safety
Instructions listed on the reverse side of this manual.
With the power ON, push the GFCI TEST button. This should cause the reset button to pop
out; simply push it back in to reset. If the reset button does not pop out, this indicates that
there is a ground fault or malfunction and a possibility of electrical shock to the user.
turn off the power and do not use the bath until the problem has been diagnosed and
repaired.
HEatEr OPEratIOn
Once the heater is installed, it comes on automatically when the pump and wall switches
are set to ON. The indicator light illuminates whenever the heater is on. The heater
maintains the temperature of the whirlpool bath water with a built-in thermostat. If the
thermostat fails, a safety circuit, or “Intelligent High-Limit Switch” will disengage the heater
automatically. Simply turn the switch to the Off position and wait for the temperature to
cool down before it resets. If the safety circuit turns off the heater frequently, this indicates
a problem that needs to be diagnosed by an authorized service technician.
ELECtrICaL COnnECtIOnS
USE COPPER CONDUCTORS ONLY to route two separate
branch circuits to the junction box near the whirlpool. Each
branch circuit must be GFCI protected.
The installation of two separate On/Off wall switches for the
heater and the pump is highly recommended for safety. Add
the switches in series with two branch circuits so that the
user can easily access the switch when necessary.

THE HEATER AND PUMP MUST BE GROUNDED AND BONDED PROPERLY. Bonding
connectors are located on the pump and heater assemblies. Use a No. 8 solid copper
wire to bond the assemblies together and to the home electrical panel or approved local
bonding point.
