measure of safety, Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. strongly recommends installation of suitable Carbon
Monoxide detectors in the vicinity of this appliance and in any adjacent occupied spaces. Improper

A. Install the New Vent Cap or Draft Hood
H0322000-
WARNING
Flue gases can be very hot and can contain carbon
monoxide which can cause property damage, severe
injury or death. Make sure the unit is off and cool to
the touch before attempting these instructions.
1. Turn off the electrical power to the heater. Turn off
the main gas supply to the heater at the meter or
the manual gas cock outside the heater.
2. Remove the vent top cover (stamped "HOT" and
"CHAUD") by removing all three (3) screws on
top. See Figure 1.
3. Remove the three (3) vent top cover brackets by
removing three (3) screws holding brackets in
place to the top enclosure. See Figure 2.
4. Remove the top enclosure by removing four (4)
screws, two (2) on each side of heater, holding top
enclosure in place to heater. See Figure 2.
5. Remove the vent cap or draft hood and accessories
from the carton.
6. Place the transition plate securely on top of flue
collector so gas will not leak. Make sure transition
plate is placed so that the vent pipe flange is
located towards the rear of the heater. See
Figure 3.
NOTE
When installing a new pool heater that will connect to existing venting, some adaptation of the vent system will
be required. This is due to variations in venting centerlines with the replacement heaters. In the USA, refer to
the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54) and all local codes. In Canada, refer to the Natural Gas
and Propane Installation Code (CSA B149.1) and all local codes.
NOTE
Jandy ships the heater with the low-profile top for an outdoor installation. Follow these procedures to install
either the Jandy draft hood (a draft hood is required on all indoor installations) or the vent cap (outdoor
installations).
