SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)Do not attempt to adjust the gas flow by adjusting the reg-ulator setting.

Risk of fire or explosion from incorrect fueluse or faulty fuel conversion. Do not try to run a heater setup for natural gas on LP gas (Propane) or vice versa. Onlyqualified service technicians should attempt to convertheater from one fuel to the other. Do not attempt to alter the rated input or type of gas bychanging the orifice. If it is necessary to convert to a differ-ent type of gas, consult your Sta-Rite dealer. Serious mal-function of the burner can occur which may result in lossof life. Any additions, changes, or conversions required inorder for the appliance to satisfactorily meet the applica-tion needs must be made by a Sta-Rite dealer or otherqualified agency using factory specified and approvedparts. The heater is available for use with natural gas or LP(propane) gas. Refer to the nameplate for the type of gasthe heater is equipped to use. • Use heater only with the fuel for which it is designed.

Do not attempt to convert from one type of gas toanother.

• If heater design does not match available fuel, have aqualified service technician convert the heater to thecorrect fuel before putting heater into operation.

Risk of fire or explosion from flammablevapors. Do not store gasoline, cleaning fluids, varnishes,paints, or other volatile flammable liquids near heater or inthe same room with heater.

Risk of fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, orasphyxiation if exhaust venting system leaks. Only quali-fied service technicians should attempt to service theheater, as leakage of exhaust products or flammable gasmay result from incorrect servicing.

Risk of explosion if an LP (propane) gas unitis installed in a pit or other low spot. LP gas is heavierthan air. Do not install an LP gas fired heater in pits orother locations where gas might collect. Consult localcodes and fire protection authorities about specific installa-tion requirements and restrictions. Locate the heater awayfrom LP gas storage and filling equipment as specified bythe Standard for the Storage and Handling of LiquifiedPetroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition).

Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correct-ly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly wheninstalling heater. Do not use a draft hood with this heater,as the exhaust is under pressure from the burner blowerand a draft hood will allow exhaust fumes to blow into theroom housing the heater. The heater is supplied with an integral venting system foroutdoor installation. A vent conversion kit (See Page 14 forPart Numbers for Conversion Kits) is available for indoorinstallations. Use the specified venting, and only the speci-fied venting, when heater is installed indoors.

Wiring errors can cause improper anddangerous operation.Connect heater to 120 Volt, 60 Hz., 1 Phase power only.Verify proper operation after servicing.Do not allow children to play on or around heater or asso-ciated equipment.Never allow children to use the pool or spa without adultsupervision.Read and follow other safety information contained in thismanual prior to operating this pool heater.

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS/REQUIREMENTSNOTICE: Combustion air contaminated by corrosive chemi-cal fumes can damage the heater and will void the warranty.NOTICE: The Combination Gas Control Valve on thisappliance differs from most appliance gas controls. If itmust be replaced, for safety reasons replace it only with anidentical gas control.NOTICE: The jacket covers must be in place to provideproper ventilation. Do not operate the heater for more thanfive (5) minutes with the jacket covers removed.This heater is design certified by CSA International as com-plying with the Standard for Gas-Fired Pool heaters, ANSIZ21.56*CSA 4.7, and is intended for use in heating fresh-water swimming pools or spas. NOTICE: Do not use this heater as a heating boiler, waterheater, or for heating salt-water pools. This heater isintended for use in heating fresh water swimming pools orspas only.The heater requires an external 120 VAC single-phase elec-tric power source.For indoor installation, the heater must be located as closeas practical to a chimney or gas vent. The heater is design certified by CSA International forinstallation on combustible flooring. Specified minimumclearances must be maintained to combustible surfaces(see “Installation Instructions”, Pages 9 - 11).The heater should be located in an area where leakage ofthe heater or connections will not result in damage to thearea adjacent to the heater or to the structure. When suchlocations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suit-able drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under theheater. The pan must not restrict air flow. The heater may not be installed within five feet of theinside surface of a pool or spa unless it is separated by asolid fence, wall or other permanent barrier.

DESCRIPTION OF THE HEATER

FIGURE 2

Figure 2 is a diagram of the heater showing how it operates.Precisely matched orifice plates meter the air and gas intothe mixer. The blower draws the air and gas through themixer and forces it into the burner’s flameholder. A sealedheat exchanger surrounds the flameholder, dischargingexhaust gases out the flue.Two inch PVC water piping connects directly to the mani-fold/header on the heat exchanger using 2” PVC slip unionsprovided with the heater. The outer manifold remains cool;no heat sinks are required. A thermal regulator and an inter-nal bypass regulate the water flow through the heatexchanger to maintain the correct outlet temperature.A plastic jacket with the top half split for access surrounds

the assembly. The heater control board assembly, set intothe top of the jacket, contains the operating controls.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONAn electronic temperature sensing thermistor in the mani-fold adapter inlet controls the heater operation. When theinlet water temperature drops below the temperature set onthe operating control, the burner controller suppliespower to the combustion air blower through a series ofsafety interlocks. The interlocks consist of • the pressure switch (PS), which senses that the pump is

running, • the high limit switch (HLS), which opens if the heat

exchanger outlet temperature goes above 135°F, and• the automatic gas shutoff (AGS) switch, which opens if

the heat exchanger outlet temperature goes above140°F.

• the stack flue sensor (SFS), which shuts down the heaterif the flue gas temperature reaches 500°F.

The air flow switch (AFS) senses the pressure drop acrossthe air metering orifice. As soon as there is sufficient airflow, the AFS closes, closing the circuit to the hot surfaceignition (HSI), which ignites the fuel mixture. On a call for heat, the blower and HSI are energized. Inabout 20 seconds, the gas valve opens and ignition occurs.The HSI then switches to a sensing mode and monitors theflame. The heater is equipped with a digital operating control thatenables the user to pre-set the desired pool and spa watertemperatures. The control enables the user to selectbetween pool and spa heating, and features a digital dis-play that indicates the water temperature.

This light should be on whenever the burner ison. It blinks when the heater is calling for heat but not fir-ing. If this light is on but the burner fails to come on, oneof the “service” lights should come on, indicating a fault inthe system.The SERVICE SYSTEM light indicates that there is insufficientwater flow to the heater. If the pump is operating, this usual-ly indicates that the filter and/or skimmers should be cleaned(some filters may require backwashing). If the light remainson after the filter/skimmers have been serviced, the systemshould be checked by a qualified service technician.The SERVICE HEATER light indicates a fault in the heateror its controls. If this light comes on, shut down the heater(See TO TURN OFF GAS TO THE APPLIANCE, at left), andhave a qualified service technician check the system.

Risk of explosion or fire causing burns ordeath if safety interlocks are disabled. DO NOT attempt tooperate heater when SERVICE HEATER light is on or ifblower or burner will not start. Instead, follow instructionsunder “To Turn Off Gas to the Appliance”, at left, and calla qualified service technician to repair unit.

AFTER START-UPCHECKING WATER FLOW

Fire or flooding hazard. If the unit overheatsand the burner fails to shut off, follow instructions under“To Turn Off Gas to the Appliance”, Page 6, and call aqualified service technician to repair unit.

After start-up, the outlet water pipe should feel slightlywarmer than the inlet pipe. If it feels hot, or if you hear thewater in the heater boiling, there may not be enough waterflow to the appliance. Make sure that the filter is notplugged. If water temperature remains high but the unitcontinues to operate, turn off the appliance and call yourservice technician.

SPRING AND FALL OPERATION If the pool is only used occasionally, lower the pool ther-mostat to 65°F. and leave the heater on. This will keep thepool and the surrounding ground warm enough so that theheater should restore the pool to a comfortable tempera-ture within about one day.

COLD WEATHER OPERATIONThe heater may be operated in the wintertime, provided airtemperatures remain above freezing and the water tempera-ture is not permitted to drop below 65°F. Extended heateroperation with water temperatures below 65°F can result inserious damage to the heater and is not covered by warranty. NOTICE: When starting the heater for the swimming sea-son with a water temperature below 50°F, the heater maybe used to heat the water; however, make sure that theheater operates continuously until the water temperaturereaches the heater’s minimum setting of 65°F.During cold weather, if there is no danger of freezing,operate the filter pump continuously even if the heater isnot operating. If air temperatures are expected to dropbelow freezing (32°F), shut down the heater and winterizeit (See ”WINTERIZING”, Page 8). Allowing the heater tofreeze will void the warranty.

MAINTAINING POOL TEMPERATURETo maintain pool temperature, make sure that the heaterswitch and valving are reset to pool settings after using thespa.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS 1. Keep the pool or spa covered when not in use. This

will reduce heating costs, reduce water evaporation,conserve chemicals and reduce load on the filteringsystem.

2. Reduce pool thermostat to 78°F or lower; reduce spatemperature to 100°F.

3. Use a time clock to start the filter pump at 6 a.m. orlater. The swimming pool loses less heat after day-break.

4. For pools used only on weekends, lower the thermostatsetting by 10°F to 15°F during the week to reduce heatloss. A properly sized heater will restore normal tem-perature within one day.

5. Turn the heater off when the pool will not be used foran extended period.

6. Follow a regular program of preventive maintenancefor the heater each new swimming season. Checkoperation of the heater and its controls.

CARE AND MAINTENANCEMAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Risk of fire or explosion from flammablevapors. Do not store gasoline, cleaning fluids, varnishes,paints, or other volatile flammable liquids near heater or inthe same room with heater. The following maintenance is recommended every sixmonths and at the start of every swimming season:1. Inspect the jacket and venting system to make sure that

there are no obstructions to the flow of ventilating airor burner exhaust. On indoor heaters, check that roomair intakes are open and clear of obstructions.

2. Keep the area in and around the heater clear and freefrom combustible materials, gasoline and other flam-mable vapors and corrosive liquids.

3. On heaters equipped with a pressure relief valve, testthe operation of the valve by lifting the valve lever.

4. Test for proper operation of the pressure switch. (See“SWITCH SETTINGS” for testing instructions).

5. On indoor installations with high-temperature SpecialGas Vent systems, repeat the Final Installation Check,Page 15. Check for evidence of joint leakage. Makesure that joints have not slipped partially or completelyapart. Check pipe and fittings for cracks or breaks.

The combustion air blower is permanently lubricated,and does not require periodic lubrication. The burner doesnot require maintenance or adjustment by the user. Call aqualified service technician if you suspect that the burnermay require maintenance.

WINTERIZING (See Figure 7)For outdoor heaters in freezing climates, shut the heaterdown and drain it for winter as follows:1. Turn off electrical supply to the heater and pump.2. Close main gas control valve and manual gas valve

(located outside the heater).3. Open drain cock located on the bottom of the mani-

fold adapter, and drain the heat exchanger and mani-fold adapter completely. If heater is below pool waterlevel, be sure to close isolation valves to prevent drain-ing the pool (isolation valves are not required andshould not be used on heaters installed above poolwater level). Assist the draining by blowing out theheat exchanger through the pressure switch fitting withlow pressure compressed air (less than 5 PSI or 35 kPa).

Explosion hazard. Purging the system withcompressed air can cause components to explode, withrisk of severe injury or death to anyone nearby. Use onlya low pressure (below 5 PSI), high volume blower when airpurging the heater, pump, filter, or piping.4. Remove the Water Pressure Switch. Plug the port in the

manifold to prevent bugs and dirt from getting into themanifold.

5. Drain the plastic inlet/outlet manifold through the out-let pipe. If the pipe does not drain naturally to thepool, install a drain cock in the outlet pipe to drain themanifold.

6. Cover air inlet grate with a plastic bag to prevent bugs,leaves, etc., from getting into the heater.

FIGURE 7: Winterizing

NOTICE: Water trapped in the heater can cause freezedamage. Allowing the heater to freeze voids the warranty.To return the heater to service after winterizing:1. Close drain cock and fittings.2. Before starting the heater, circulate water through the

heater for several minutes until all air noises stop. See also “BEFORE STARTUP” (Page 4) and “CARE AND MAINTENANCE” (above).

Risk of fire and explosion if installed at floorlevel in an automotive garage or near gasoline or flamma-ble liquid storage. Gasoline fumes are heavier than air andwill settle to floor level in closed spaces. Gasoline fumesand spilled gasoline or other volatile liquids (such as somepaints and varnishes) will travel across the floor and can beignited by a gas appliance. In a utility room or residentialgarage installation, install the heater with the base at least18 inches above the floor. In a garage, install a rail or wallto protect the heater from physical damage by a movingvehicle.Provide an adequate ventilation air supply (see Instruc-tions, at right). Choose a location that will avoid contami-nation by chemical fumes. NOTICE: LPG fired heaters must not be installed in garagesin Massachusetts, by order of the State Fire Marshall. Formore information, call the Massachusetts State FireMarshall’s office.NOTICE: Combustion air contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes can damage the heater and will void thewarranty (See Table 1, Page 11).

The heater is design certified by CSA International forinstallation on combustible flooring. For installation on car-peting, the heater must be mounted on a metal or woodpanel that extends at least three (3) inches beyond the baseof the heater. If the heater is installed in a closet or alcove,the entire floor shall be covered by the panel. On an indoor installation, the exhaust discharges into avent pipe. Orient the heater so that the vent pipe does notinterfere with adjustment of the operating controls. Theoperating control panel located on top of the jacket can berotated for convenient access to the control panel.

Table 1: Corrosive Vapors and Possible Causes

COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR SUPPLYFor indoor installation, the heater requires air supply open-ings for ventilation and combustion. The minimum require-ments are for two (2) openings: one 12 inches from theceiling for ventilation air and one 12 inches from the floorfor combustion air, in accordance with the latest edition ofthe National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1., and any localcodes that may apply.

The minimum net free area in square inches shall be as follows:

Table 2: Combustion and VentilationAir Requirements

INDOOR VENT INSTALLATIONAlways vent the heater to the outdoors. • Vent it horizontally or vertically using a Special Gas

Vent, (see Table 5, Page 14), or • Vent it vertically using Type “B” double wall vent con-

nector pipe. Locate the heater so as to minimize the length of horizon-tal venting and the number of vent elbows required.Horizontal vent runs must slope up 1/4” per foot from theheater to allow exhaust condensate to drain and must havea condensate drain as described in the venting installationinstructions.

OUTSIDE VENT COVER REMOVALThe heater is supplied from the factory with a built-instackless outside vent for outdoor installation. Remove theoutside vent cover for indoor installation.

VERTICAL VENTING - NEGATIVE PRESSURE(See Figures 11 and 12)

Vent the heater vertically in a negative pressure (positivedraft) system in accordance with the National Fuel GasCode, ANSI Z223.1, and local codes. Type “B” Double-wall vent connector is recommended; however single-wallpipe is allowed by the National Fuel Gas Code in somecircumstances. Consult your local code official for detailedinformation. Do not use a draft hood with this heater.To connect a negative pressure metal gas vent to theheater, order the appropriate Metal Flue Collar from thechart below:

1. See Table 3, below, to determine allowable vent sizesfor your heater.

NOTICE: Table 3 is for installations in which the total later-al vent length (that is, the horizontal distance from the fluecollar to the main vertical portion of the vent) is less than1/2 the total vent height (the vertical distance from the fluecollar to the vent termination) and which have three or lesselbows in the system. For venting systems which do notmeet these conditions, consult the National Fuel GasCode, ANSI Z223.1 2. Install the metal Flue Collar in the Vent Body of the

heater (located under the outside vent cover). Fastenthe metal Flue Collar to the Vent Body with two #10sheet metal screws. Use UltraCopper® silicone RTV toseal the metal Flue Collar to the Vent Body. Followinstructions supplied with the metal Flue Collar. Beforeconnecting the metal Flue Collar to the Vent Body, weta clean cloth or paper towel with isopropyl alcohol(rubbing alcohol) and vigorously wipe the socket of theVent Body. Immediately wipe the cleaned surfaces drywith a clean cloth or paper towel. Repeat for the exte-

rior of the 4” end of the metal Flue Collar. Attach themetal Flue Collar to the Vent Body using the RTV sup-plied with the kit, following the instructions includedwith kit. Do not use a draft hood with this heater.

3. Attach the vent pipe to the metal Flue Collar withsheet-metal screws.

Risk of fire or asphyxiation if vent is notassembled according to manufacturer’s instructions or ifvent parts from different manufacturers are mixed. Ventparts from different manufacturers ARE NOT interchange-able. Mixing parts from more than one manufacturer maycause leaks or damage to vent. When assembling a vent,pick one manufacturer and be sure that all vent parts comefrom that manufacturer and are specified by the manufac-turer for your system. Follow manufacturer’s instructionsand local and National Fuel Gas Code requirements care-fully during assembly and installation. 4. Install vent pipe so that it can expand and contract

freely as the temperature changes. Support the ventpipe according to applicable codes and the vent manu-facturer’s instructions. Pipe support must allow thevent pipe free movement out and back, from side toside, or up and down as necessary, without putting astrain on the heater or vent body. Slope horizontal piperuns up from the heater at least 1/4” per foot. InstallListed condensate drains at low points where conden-sate might collect. Plumb condensate drains to a drainthrough hard piping or high-temperature tubing suchas silicone rubber or EPDM rubber – do not use vinylor other low temperature tubing. Follow drain manu-facturer’s installation instructions.

5. Use Listed firestops for floor and ceiling penetrations.Use Listed thimble for wall penetrations. Use a Listedroof flashing, roof jack, or roof thimble for all roof pen-etrations. Do not fill the space around the vent (that is,the clear air space in the thimble or firestop) withinsulation. The roof opening must be located so thatthe vent is vertical.

A manual bypass valve should be installed across theheater when the pump flow exceeds 120 GPM. Seeinstructions below for setting of the manual bypass.Make sure that the outlet plumbing from the heater con-tains no shut-off valves or other flow restrictions that couldprevent flow through the heater (except as noted below).To switch flow between the pool and spa, use a divertervalve. Do not use any valve that can shut off the flow. Do not use a shut-off valve to isolate the heater unless it isbelow the level of the pool or spa. Install a check valve if there is a possibility of back-siphon-ing through the heater when the pump is off. NOTICE: Improper operation of chemical feeders can causesevere damage to the heater which is not covered by thewarranty. Either equip chemical feeders with an anti-siphondevice to prevent chemicals from siphoning into the heaterif the pump shuts off, or install the chemical feeder down-stream of the heater (see “Water Chemistry,” Page 17).NOTICE: If the heater is plumbed in backwards, it willcycle continuously. Make sure piping from filter is notreversed when installing heater.

WATER PIPINGConnect the heater directly to 2” PVC pipe, using the inte-gral unions provided. Heat sinks are not required. The lowthermal mass of the heater will prevent overheating of thepiping connected to the heater even if the pump shutsdown unexpectedly.

WATER FLOW RATEMaximum and minimum water flow rates required by theheater are listed below:

Table 8: Maximum and Minimum Flow Rate in GPM

If the water flow rate to the heater is above 120 GPM, itmust be reduced by installing a manual bypass valve (Figure17). After installing the valve, adjust the valve to bring theflow rate within the acceptable range. Then remove thevalve handle or lock it in place to prevent tampering.Occasionally a two-speed pump will not develop enoughpressure on the low speed to operate the heater. In thiscase, run the pump at high speed only to operate theheater. If this does not solve the problem, do not try to runthe heater. Instead, correct the installation.Do not operate the heater while an automatic pool cleaneris also operating. If the circulation pump suction is plugged(for example by leaves), there may not be adequate flow tothe heater. Do not rely on the pressure switch in this case.

WATER CHEMISTRYWater chemistry should follow good swimming pool waterchemistry practices. See Table 9 (below) for water chem-istry parameters.When using a chlorinator, install it downstream from theheater and at a lower level than the heater outlet. Install acorrosion resistant positive seal check valve (see Figure 15)between the heater and the chlorinator to prevent concen-trated chemicals from back-siphoning into the heater.Back-siphoning is most likely to occur when the pumpstops, creating a pressure-suction differential.

WATER PRESSURE SWITCHHazardous pressure. Do not bypass the Water

Pressure Switch or render it inoperable.

Switch SettingsThe water pressure switch turns off the burner if the waterflow is interrupted. If the water flow is restricted, the waterpressure switch may prevent the burner from firing andcause the “Service System” light to go on. If the lightremains on after the filter has been serviced, have a quali-fied service technician check the system. For deck-level heater installations, the Pressure Switch isfactory set at 3 psi. If the pressure switch is one to two feetbelow or one to five feet above the pool water level, resetthe switch so that it is open when the pump is off andclosed when the pump is running. Turn the star-wheel onthe switch clockwise ( ) to raise setting (heater belowthe pool) and counterclockwise ( ) to lower the setting(heater above the pool - see Figures 18 and 19). Test theswitch after resetting.

FIGURE 18: Remove cover for access to Switch

FIGURE 19: Pressure Switch Adjustment

NOTICE: When the heater is mounted more than five feetabove or two feet below the deck level, a Pressure Switchis no longer adequate. A Flow Switch must be installedinstead.NOTICE: Heater operation with incorrect Pressure Switchsetting may cause operation with no water flow. Operationof the heater without sufficient water flow may severelydamage it.Verify proper operation of the water pressure switch at thestart of every season and every six months thereafter by thefollowing steps:1. Lower the thermostat setting to turn off the heater.2. Wait at least 15 minutes after the burner is off, and

then turn off the filter pump. 3. Turn up the thermostat as though to fire the burner. 4. Wait one minute. The “Service System” light should go

on but the burner should not fire and the blower shouldnot start. If the blower or burner do start, or if the“Service System” light does not go on, there is a pres-sure switch malfunction. Immediately press the OFF but-ton on the operating control to turn the burner off andcall a qualified service technician to check the system.

Live steam hazard. If the Burner and thePump stop at the same time, wait at least 15 minutesbefore starting the filter pump to avoid severe damage tothe heater.

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVEA pressure relief valve is not supplied with the heater.Some local codes may require installation of a pressurerelief valve. If your local code requires a relief valve, installa 3/4” pressure relief valve complying with the ANSI/ASMEBoiler and Pressure Vessel Code, having a capacity equalto the Btu/hr rating of the heater. The relief pressure of thevalve MUST NOT EXCEED 50 PSI.A 3/4” NPT connection is provided in the manifold forinstalling a pressure relief valve. The relief valve must beinstalled vertically. To install the valve, use a 3/4” brassnipple and elbow, as illustrated in Figure 20. No valve isallowed to be placed between the manifold adapter andthe relief valve.

To avoid water damage or scalding from operation of therelief valve, install a drain pipe in the outlet of the pressurerelief valve that will direct water discharging from thevalve to a safe place for disposal. Do not install any reduc-ing couplings or valves in the drain pipe. The drain pipemust be installed so as to allow complete drainage fromthe valve and drain line. The relief valve should be testedat least once a year by lifting the valve lever.

Explosion hazard. Any heater installed withrestrictive devices in the piping system downstream fromthe heater (including check valves, isolation valves, flownozzles, or therapeutic pool valving) must have a reliefvalve installed as described above. See Page 16.

Risk of fire and explosion. Improperinstallation, adjustment, alteration, service, or main-tenance of the Combination Gas Control Valve canlead to fire or explosion, causing loss of life, per-sonal injury, or property damage.These instructions are for the use of qualified service technicians only!Do not attempt this procedure unless you havebeen trained and certified in the care and repair ofgas-fired appliances!Do not attempt this procedure if the followinginstructions are confusing!This appliance is equipped with an unconventional gascontrol valve that is factory set with a manifold pressureof –.2” wc. Installation or service must be performed bya qualified installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.If this control valve is replaced, it must be replaced withan identical control.The combination gas valve incorporates dual shut-offvalves and a negative-pressure regulator. For properoperation, the regulated pressure at the outlet manifoldof the valve must be 0.2” wc below the reference pres-sure at the blower mixer inlet, and the gas valve ‘VENT’tap must be connected to the endcap air orifice asshown in Figure 21 (above).Do not attempt to adjust the gas input by adjusting theregulator setting. The correct gas regulator setting isrequired to maintain proper combustion and must not bealtered.To check that the gas pressure setting is correct,use the following procedure:1. Turn off the heater and remove the top covers for

access to the Combination Gas Control Valve.2. Use a 3/16” hex key to remove the plug from the

‘PRESSURE TAP’ port on the outlet side of the

Combination Gas Control Valve.3. Install a 1/8” NPT barbed fitting into the ‘PRESSURE

TAP’ port. Use a flexible tube to connect it to the lowside of a differential pressure gauge or a slopegauge.NOTICE: If you are using a slope gauge or a differ-ential pressure gauge of less than 3” capacity, closethe shutoff valve of the gauge to avoid pulling the liq-uid out of the gauge when the blower starts.

4. Disconnect the tube from the Gas Valve ‘VENT’ port.Connect it to a tube with a tee running to the highside of a differential pressure gauge and to the blow-er’s air orifice grille (See Figure 21, above).

5. Turn on the heater and verify the gas supply pres-sure (Page 20).

6. After the burner ignites, open the shutoff valve of thegauge. The pressure gauge should then read 0.2” wc±0.1” wc (0.0” to 0.1” wc = rich mixture; 0.3” to 0.5”wc = lean mixture). (Since the pressure tap is con-nected to the low side of the gauge, the pressure isactually negative.)

Risk of fire or explosion ifCombination Gas Control Valve is incorrectlyadjusted. If it is necessary to adjust the gasvalve, this must be done only by a qualified service agency.

7. Turn off the heater.8. Replace the plastic hose between the ‘VENT’ port

and the inlet of blower mixer. Remove the barbed fit-ting and replace the plug in the ‘PRESSURE TAP’port of the gas valve, using a thread sealantapproved for use with natural gas and LPG.

9. Replace the heater covers and cycle the heater tocheck for proper operation.

GAS CONNECTIONSThe heater requires a gas supply of not less than 4” wc andnot more than 14” wc. Gas supply pressures outside of thisrange may result in improper burner operation. A minimuminlet pressure of 4” wc is required to maintain input rating.The gas supply must be installed in accordance with theNational Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and all applicablelocal codes. Install a manual shut-off valve and a sedimenttrap and union located outside the heater jacket (Figure22). Do not use a restrictive gas cock. The following gas pipe sizes are recommended for naturalgas supply piping. For low pressure LP gas, pipe size maybe reduced by 1/4”, with a minimum pipe size of 3/4”.Check for compliance with local codes.

NOTICE: DO NOT use a corrugated flexible gas line tosupply heater. It will not deliver enough gas (at nominaldiameter) to supply heater.

PRESSURE TESTINGBefore operating the heater, the heater and its gas connec-tions must be leak tested. Test all gas connections for leakswith soapy water.

Risk of fire or explosion. Do not use an openflame to test for leaks.The heater and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-nected from the gas supply piping system during any pres-sure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2psig (3.5 kPa).The heater must be isolated from the gas supply system byclosing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pres-sure testing of the gas supply at test pressures equal to orless than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

SUPPLYING POWER TO THE HEATERThe heater requires a 120V/60Hz/1Ph power supply.Enclose the 120 Volt line to the heater in an approved flex-ible conduit connected directly to the junction box on theinside of the heater jacket. Line voltage field wiring should be 14 gauge, with a circuitcapacity of 15 amps.

ELECTRICAL WIRING1. All wiring must be in accordance with all applicable

codes.2. The heater, when installed, must be electrically

grounded and bonded in accordance with local codesor, in the absence of local codes, with the NationalElectrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. A bonding lug is pro-vided on the outside of the jacket under the vent forthis purpose.

3. Electrical power circuits to the pool heater must followlocal codes and National Electrical Code or CanadianElectrical Code (as applicable).

4. All wiring between the heater and devices not attachedto it, or between separate devices which are fieldinstalled and located, shall conform to the specifica-tions of Type T wire (35°C rise).

5. All line voltage wiring shall be enclosed in approvedflexible conduit, and shall be securely attached to thefield wiring box located inside the jacket. The conduitor cable connector at the field wiring box should con-tain an insulating bushing or its equivalent to preventabrasion of the wires as they enter the box.

6. The filter pump should run continuously when theheater is on, and for at least 15 minutes after theheater is off. Any switches in the pump circuit (includ-ing circuit breakers) that can disconnect the pumpmust also disconnect the heater.

7. Do not wire single pole switches, including protectivedevices, into a grounded line. Observe hot/neutralpolarity when connecting power to the heater.

Connect the hot lead of the power supply to the blackwire, the neutral lead to the white wire, and the groundwire to the green wire (See Figure 23).A time clock controlling the filter pump should have a low-voltage Fireman’s Switch that switches off the heater atleast 15 minutes before shutting off the pump.

FIREMAN’S SWITCH CONNECTIONNOTICE: If, while there is 120VAC connected to theheater, you touch either 120VAC terminal with any 24VACwire that is connected to the control board (including theFireman’s Switch jumper), you will immediately destroy thecontrol board and void the warranty.

NOTICE: When using a timer and Fireman’s Switch, theheater’s power supply should come from the load side ofthe timer. The Fireman’s Switch completes the circuit forthe low voltage safety switches. It DOES NOT get anypower from the 115 volt power supply.Connect the Fireman’s switch to the heater as follows:1. Turn off power to heater at main circuit breaker panel.2. Unbolt and remove the upper jacket halves (see Figure

3, Page 5).3. Open control box cover (see Figure 24).4. Remove the factory-installed jumper between the

Fireman’s Switch terminals (see Figure 25).5. Connect the wires between the Fireman’s Switch termi-

nals on the heater and those on the time clock using18 gauge wire with a minimum 3/64” thick insulationrated for a temperature rise of at least 105°C. Route thewires out through the knockout on the bottom of theControl Box. Use a 90° conduit el and conduit run outthrough the cutout on the Lower Enclosure, next to theJunction Box (see Figure 23).
