THIS WATER HEATER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR POOL HEATING.
Check the water heater is suitable for the gas type available

INSTALLATION STANDARDS
The water heater must be installed:
by a qualified person, and
in accordance with the installation instructions, and
in compliance with Standards AS/NZS 3500.4, AS 5601 or AS/NZS 5601.1,
as applicable under local regulations, and all local codes and regulatory
authority requirements.

WATER HEATER APPLICATION
This water heater is designed for use in a single family domestic dwelling for
the purpose of heating potable water. Its use in an application other than this
may shorten its life.
If this water heater is to be used where an uninterrupted hot water supply is
necessary for the application or business, then there should be back-up
redundancy within the hot water system design. This should ensure the
continuity of hot water supply in the event that this water heater was to become
inoperable for any reason. We recommend you provide advice to the system
owner about their needs and building back-up redundancy into the hot water
supply system.
Note:
AS 3498 requires that a water heater provides the means to inhibit the
growth of Legionella bacteria in potable water. This water heater can satisfy
this AS 3498 requirement provided it is operating and the thermostat setting is
60°C or higher, including when it is used as an in-series booster water heater
for a solar water heater.
