3. A green terminal (or wire connector marked "G",

"GR", "GROUND" or "GROUNDING") is provided

within the control box. To reduce the risk of electric

shock, connect this terminal or connector to the

grounding terminal of the electric service or supply

panel with a continuous copper wire in accordance

with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

4. This product shall be protected by a Class A

ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).

5.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Pressure Switch Adjustment

Pressure switch is normally factory set for universal

spa applications. Heater must not be installed more

than five feet above water level or five feet below. If the

heater is installed below the spa level or if a two speed

filter pump is used it is necessary to reset the pressure

switch as follows:

1. With pump and heater on, turn adjustment knob

clockwise until a click is heard.

2. Turn adjustment knob counter clockwise 1/4 turn.

3. Turn pump off and on several times. Heater should

shut off immediately. If it does not, repeat steps

above until proper adjustment is made.

Shut Down

Turn off electrical power to heater at main disconnect

when draining spa.

MAINTENANCE

Spa Water Chemistry

Chemical imbalance can cause severe damage to

your heater and associated equipment. Maintain your

water chemistry according to the chart on page 8. If

the mineral content and dissolved solids in the water

become too high, scale forms inside the heat exchang-

er tubes, reducing heater efficiency and also

damaging the heater. If the pH drops below 7.2, the

heater will be severely damaged. This will result in cor-

rosion of the heat exchanger.

Heat exchanger

damage resulting from chemical imbalance is not

covered by the warranty.

Element Inspection and

Replacement

The element assembly head is removed as follows:

1. Turn off electrical power to heater at the main dis-

connect and turn off water supply line.

2. Drain the heater.

3. Remove access panel.

4. Disconnect all wires to terminals of elements.

5. Remove four bolts holding element in place.

6. Remove element assembly.

7. Replace element assembly and gasket using

reverse procedure.

Removing the Aquastat

1. Turn off electrical power to heater at main discon-

nect.

2. Remove screw holding aquastat to mounting

plate.

3. Disconnect wires from aquastat and control knob.

WARNING:

The use of alcohol, drugs, or medica-

tion can greatly increase the risk of fatal

hyperthermia in pools and tubs.

NOTE:

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal tem-

perature of the body reaches a level several degrees

above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F

(37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizzi-

ness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase

in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of

hyperthermia include (1) unawareness of impending

hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3) failure to rec-

ognize the need to exit pool or tub, (4) physical

inability to exit pool or tub, (5) fetal damage in preg-

nant women, and (6) unconsciousness resulting in a

danger of drowning.

WARNING:

ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL

SHOULD ATTEMPT MAINTENANCE ON THIS

EQUIPMENT (N.E.C. ARTICLE 100-1971) (MAIN-

TENANCE MUST BE DONE WITH MAIN

DISCONNECT OPEN).
