b. The system's water flow exceeds 125 GPM

(475 LPM), and requires a manual bypass

valve for proper operation. Install a manual by

pass (see Figure 6 on page 10) and proceed to

Section 7.8

15. If the temperature rise is above the maximum,

there is not enough water flowing through the

heater. Check for clogging in the water filter or

restriction in the water pipes.

 Caution

Operation with the temperature rise above

maximum or below the minimum can damage

the heater and may void the warranty.

16. If the temperature rise is within the correct

range, complete the procedure as follows:
a. Set the controller to 'OFF' by repeatedly

depressing the SELECTION key until the

display shows that the heater is 'OFF'.

b. Turn the filter pump off by pressing the

PUMP key and allow up to five minutes for

the pump to shut down.

c. Turn off the power to the filter at the circuit

breaker.

d. Remove thermometer and Pete's plug.
e. Replace the drain plug.
f. Turn on the power to the filter at the circuit

breaker.

g. Return the pool temperature control to the

desired temperature. Repeatedly depress the

MODE key until the indicator at the top of the

display shows 'POOL SET'. Press the

ENTER key. Then use the UP and DOWN

keys to set the heater to the desired tempera

ture. Press the ENTER key again.

7.8. Adjusting the Manual Bypass Valve

After the manual bypass valve is installed, use

the following procedures to adjust the bypass valve:
1.

Make sure the pool filter is clean.

2.

If the filter pump is on, turn it off by pressing the

PUMP key and allow up to five minutes for the

pump to shut down.

3.

Turn off the power supply to the heater at the

circuit breaker panel.

4.

Remove the drain plug located on the inlet/outlet

header of the heater and replace it with a Pete's

plug (see Figure 14).

5.

Insert a pocket thermometer (see Figure 14)

through the Pete's plug into the header.

6.

Turn the circuit breaker on to supply the heater

with power.

7.

Close manual bypass valve.

8.

Set the controller to 'OFF' by repeatedly depress-

ing the SELECTION key until the display shows

that the heater is 'OFF'.

9.

Repeat steps 8 through 13 of the temperature

rise test (see Section 7.7).

10. If the temperature rise is below the minimum

stated in Table 6, open the manual bypass valve

until temperature rise climbs between the min.

and max. range for your size heater. If the

minimum temperature rise stated in Table 6

cannot be reached with the manual bypass fully

open, then the gas supply volume is too low.

11. If the temperature rise is above the maximum,

there is not enough water flowing through the

heater. Check for clogging in the water filter or

restriction in the water pipes.

12. Once the temperature is within the correct range,

safety wire the handle of the manual bypass

valve in place and tag the valve to prevent

change in the water flow.

13. Complete the procedure as follows:

a. Set the controller to 'OFF' by repeatedly

depressing the SELECTION key until the

display shows that the heater is 'OFF'.

b. Turn the filter pump off by pressing the

PUMP key and allow up to five minutes for

the pump to shut down.

c. Turn off the power to the heater at the circuit

breaker.

d. Remove thermometer and Pete's plug.
e. Replace the drain plug.
f. Turn on the power to the heater at the circuit

breaker.

g. Return the pool temperature control to the

desired temperature. Repeatedly depress the

MODE key until the indicator at the top of the

display shows 'POOL SET'. Press the EN-

TER key. Then use the UP and DOWN keys

to set the heater to the desired temperature.

Press the ENTER key again.

SECTION  8.

Maintenance

8.1 Water Chemistry

Proper chemical balances are necessary for

sanitary bathing conditions as well as ensuring your

heater's long life. Be sure to keep your chemical levels

within the values indicated in Table 8.
