HEATER TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
- CAUTION -
This heater incorporates 240 volt electrical circuits.
Do not open the case unless unit is disconnected from electrical power.
Use only manufacturer's parts, or UL listing and warranty may be void.
Elements can be checked with an Ohm meter only when power is disconnected from heater and all wires have
been removed from the element terminals. Each element should read approximately 10.5 Ohms.
Ambient temperatures above 120°F will cause the high temperature limit to trip prematurely.
Proper water balance is important to extending the life of your Coates
Heater. While pH control is critical, the control of alkalinity and calcium
hardness will protect against scaling and also help to prevent corrosion.
