SECTION 2.
Installation Instructions
2A. General Information
Install the Laars Lite 2 heaters, vent caps and
drafthoods in accordance with the procedures in this
manual, local codes and ordinances, and in accordance
with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1. In Canada, the installation must be in
accordance with CAN1-B149.1 or .2 and local codes.
The authority having jurisdiction may require that the
installation conform to the Standard for Gas-Fired
Heaters, ANSI Z21.56. Any changes to the heater, gas
controls, gas orifices, wiring, draft diverter, or im-
proper installation may void the warranty. If field
conditions require change to any of the above, consult
the factory.
All gas-fired products require correct installation
to assure safe operation. The requirements for pool
heaters include the following:
1. Field assembly (if required)
2. Appropriate site location (clearances) and
flooring
3. Sufficient combustion and ventilation air
4. Properly sized gas meter and piping
5. Proper electrical wiring (if required)
6. Adequate water flow
This manual provides the information needed to
meet these requirements. Review all application and
installation procedures completely before continuing
the installation.
2B. Field Assembly
The Laars Lite 2 heater is shipped from the
factory with the top assembly in the low-profile
configuration for outdoor installation in the U.S. In
Canada, an outdoor installation requires the addition of
a factory approved vent cap. The Laars Lite 2 heater is
design certified for indoor installation when equipped
with a drafthood, which must be installed without
modification.
The Laars Lite 2 heater is also certified for
installation in an outdoor shelter in Canada when
equipped with a drafthood. An outdoor shelter is an
enclosure not normally occupied which does not
communicate directly with occupied areas.
Check the rating plate on the heater or the Parts
List (Sec. 4) of this manual for the correct Waterpik
Laars drafthood or vent cap part number. See instruc-
tions supplied with the drafthood or vent cap for
installation and attachment. When the drafthood is
used, locate the heater so as to be in the same atmo-
spheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to the
heater.
