The heater requires water flow and positive pressure
to fire and operate properly. It must therefore be
installed downstream of the discharge side of the filter
pump. A typical installation is plumbed as follows:
1. The inlet side of the filter is plumbed directly to the
discharge side of the filter pump;
2. The outlet side of the filter is then plumbed to the
inlet of the heater; and
3. The outlet of the heater is plumbed to the return
line to the pool or spa. The pump, filter and heater
are thus plumbed in series.

Table E: Maximum Equivalent Pipe Length
Plumbing from the heater back to the pool or spa must
not have any valves or restriction that could prevent
flow when the pump is operating.
Heater must be located so that any water leaks will not
damage the structure of adjacent area. PVC pipe may
be glued directly into optional or field-supplied header
unions.

Polymer Headers
Before attaching the optional 2-inch unions to the
In/Out header, make sure the O-rings are properly
seated in the grooves. Use AquaLube or equivalent
non-petroleum-based lubricant on the O-ring. Hand
tighten the unions. Glue PVC piping directly to the
unions.

*When flow rates exceed maximum 70 GPM, an external auxiliary
bypass valve is required. See External Auxiliary Bypass Valve sec-
tion for details.
