Jandy® Legacy™ Model LRZM Pool/Spa Heater by Zodiac®
Note that when pool equipment is located below
the pool surface a leak can result in large scale water
loss or flooding. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. cannot
be responsible for such water loss or flooding or the
damage caused by it.
For special installations such as water connec-
tions below the water level of the pool, or for other
questions contact the Zodiac Technical Support
Department at (800) 822-7933.
5.2
check valve installation
The heater must be protected from back-siphon-
ing of water, which can result in dry starts. If there is
any chance of back-siphoning, provide a check valve
between the pool and the filter pump inlet.
When an automatic chemical feeder is installed
in the plumbing, it must be installed downstream of the
heater, see Section 5.7. A check valve must be installed
between the heater and the chemical feeder to prevent
back-siphoning of chemically saturated water into the
heater where it will damage the components.
5.3
automatic Flow control valve
The inlet/outlet header of the Legacy comes
equipped with an automatic flow control valve. The
automatic flow control valve maintains the proper
flow through the heater at rates up to approximately
125 Gallons Per Minute (GPM) (475 liters per minute
[LPM]). If the filter system flow rate is higher than
approximately 125 GPM (475 LPM), install a manual
bypass valve, see Figure 7, then perform a tempera-
ture rise test, see Section 7.6 and adjust the flow using
the bypass valve until the proper temperature rise is
obtained.
5.4
Reversible Water connections
Note
Reversing the header requires a longer
syphon tube, order part number R0483601.
The Legacy heater is shipped with water connec-
tions on the right side, but can be modified in the field
to provide left-side water connections. This proce-
dure involves removing the heat exchanger headers
and reinstalling them on opposite ends of the tube
assembly. Some of the heater wiring must be discon-
nected and re-routed, so this procedure must be done
only by a trained service technician. Heat exchanger
reversals are generally done before the installation of
power and water to the heater. If you need to reverse
the heat exchanger on a previously installed heater be
sure that all electrical power, the gas supply and water
supply have been turned off before starting the proce-
dure. These instructions have been written to include
the steps needed when reversing the water connec-
tions on an existing installation. If you are reversing
the headers on a new installation, some steps will be
ignored. Water connection reversal is illustrated in
Figures 8 and 9. Proceed as follows:
NOTE: When reversal
is complete the water
temperature sensor
wires and the syphon
loop tube will exit the
inlet/outlet header at
the back of the heater
and the drain plugs are
facing down.
