DUAL THERMOSTAT CONTROL PANEL

THERMOSTAT

The thermostat dial is just like any other,
when you set it at a certain setting the
heater will heat up to that temperature
and then shut off.  When the pool/spa wa-
ter temperature drops below this setting
the heater will come on and start heating
the water back up to the setting on the
thermostat.

You will notice there are no number set-
tings printed on the dial face.  There is a
certain procedure to follow to determine
the exact temperature you have the ther-
mostat set at.  This is described further
on next pages.

The maximum setting for a thermostat is
104 degrees F.  You will only be able to
reach this high temperature in a spa ap-
plication.  Pool temperatures are nor-
mally between 78 and 82 degrees F.  Ac-
tual pool temperatures are determined by
your installer, when the unit is sized to
your specifications.  The lowest setting
on the thermostat is around 60 degrees F.

To disable the heater,  turn the thermo-
stat dial all the way to the left.  If you
live in a climate where the water tem-
perature may drop below 60 degrees F
you must shut the circuit breaker off.
Otherwise do not use the breaker as an
on/off switch.

See "Start up Procedures"  regarding
compressor preheating if the main power
breaker is shut off.  The compressor must
be preheated for 8 hours after the power
supply has been disconnected.

L.E.D. STATUS LIGHT PANEL

The indicator lights will help you determine that the unit is running
normally or if there is a condition that may keep the heater from
running.  Note that the spa light is inactive on single thermostat
units.  See next page for details on reading the status lights.
