POOL PRODUCTS
7.2 Start-up
WARNING
Vent pipes, and heater tops get hot! These surfaces
can cause serious burns. Do not touch these
surfaces while the heater is in operation.
CAUTION
Do not use this heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the heater and replace any part of the
control system and any fuel control which has been
under water.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the fuel supply fail to
shut off, turn off the manual shut-off valve at the
storage tank.
CAUTION
Do not attempt repairs on the fuel controls or
appliance. Tampering is dangerous and voids all
warranties.
Be sure that there is water in the pool and that
the surface level is above the skimmer or other inlet of
the pool's filter system.
Confirm that pool water is flowing normally
through the pool system and equipment. With any new
pool or spa installation, operate the filter pump with the
heater off long enough to completely clean the water.
This will remove any installation residue from the
water. Clean the filter at the end of this operation,
before starting the heater.
WARNING
Inspect the firebox after installation and after
prolonged periods of non use. Do not try to light the
burner if the firebox shows any signs of damage or
deterioration. Call your service technician.
Each heater is fully inspected and tested before it
leaves the factory. However, rough handling may
cause damage to the firebox during shipping. At initial
start-up and at start-up after a prolonged period of non
use, inspect the firebox for damage or deterioration.
Remove the cover plate and plug from the inspection
hole (see Figure 15). Use a mechanic's mirror to
inspect the inside of the firebox. If the firebox shows
cracks or deterioration, do not attempt to start the
heater. Immediately call your service technician.
Start the heater in accordance with the Operating
Instructions section of this manual, with particular
attention to the lighting instructions and temperature
control operation.
To start the heater, be sure the pump is running
and move the lever of the ON/OFF switch to the on
position (see Figure 16). The heater may not start on
the first try. Air in the fuel line (see Section 7.4) or
other start-up situations may cause it to cycle. To
provide additional attempts, push the reset button on
the ignition control.
When the heater starts, immediately feel the
outlet header of the heater to confirm that there is
adequate water flow. The header should not be hot.
Normally, water temperature will rise only a few
degrees as it passes through the heater, and a "hot"
header or pipe indicates low water flow.
WARNING
When the heater is fired for the first time, the
combustion chamber refractory binder material is
driven out by the heat of the flame. White smoke
and/or sharp odors may be emitted from the vent
during this period. Do not inhale combustion product
fumes at any time, and especially when these fumes
are being emitted. This "burn-in" period may last an
hour or more.
