Section 1. Introduction
SAFETY INFORMATION,
(cont’d.)
WARNING —
Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correctly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly
when installing heater.
Do not use a drafthood with this heater, as the exhaust is under
pressure from the burner blower and a draft hood will allow exhaust fumes to blow into the room
housing the heater. The heater is supplied with an integral venting system for outdoor installation.
A vent conversion kit (See
Page 23
for Part Numbers for Conversion Kits) is available for installations
in enclosures (Canada) or indoors (U.S.). Use the specified venting, and only the specified venting,
when heater is installed in an enclosure or indoors. In Canada, this pool heater can only be installed
outdoors or in an enclosure that is not normally occupied and has no openings directly into occupied
areas. See
Page 19
for enclosure venting requirements.
CAUTION —
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Wiring errors can also destroy the control board.
• Connect heater to
120
or
240
Volt, 60 Hz., Single Phase power only.
• Verify proper operation after servicing.
• Do not allow children to play on or around heater or associated equipment.
• Never allow children to use the pool or spa without adult supervision.
• Read and follow other safety information contained in this manual prior to operating this pool
heater.
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
NOTICE:
•
Combustion air contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes can damage the heater and will void the warranty.
•
The Combination Gas Control Valve on this heater differs from most appliance gas controls. If it must be replaced,
for safety reasons replace it only with an identical gas control.
•
The access door panels must be in place to provide proper ventilation. Do not operate the heater for more than five (5)
minutes with the access door panels removed.
•
This heater is design certified by CSA International as complying with the Standard for Gas Fired Pool Heaters,
ANSI Z21.56/CSA 4.7, and is intended for use in heating fresh water swimming pools or spas.
•
The heater is designed for the heating of chlorine, bromine or salt system swimming pools and spas. It should
NOT
be used as a space heating boiler, or general purpose water heater. The heater requires an external
120
or
240
VAC
single-phase electric power source.
•
The heater is design certified by CSA International for installation on combustible flooring. Specified minimum
clearances must be maintained to combustible surfaces (see “Heater Clearances”,
page 18
).
•
The heater should be located in an area where leakage of the heater or connections will not result in damage to the
area adjacent to the heater or to the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a
suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the heater. The pan must not restrict air flow.
•
The heater may not be installed within five feet of the inside surface of a pool or spa unless it is separated by a solid
fence, wall or other permanent barrier.
