INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Risk of fire, explosion, or asphyxiation if heater
is improperly installed, adjusted, serviced or maintained.
These instructions are for licensed, certified, trained and
experienced installers only. Be sure your installer or service
technician holds all required licenses or certification for
your area. Attempts by unqualified persons to service or
repair this heater are dangerous and could be fatal.
PUTTING THE HEATER INTO SERVICE
If the heater is installed below the level of the pool, or
more than two feet above pool level, the pressure switch
setting should be adjusted. See PRESSURE SWITCH, in the
MAINTENANCE section.
Before putting the heater into service for the first time, fol-
low the instructions under BEFORE STARTUP in the front
of this manual. Check for proper operation of the heater by
following the steps under OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
Damage to equipment caused by improper installation or
repair will void the warranty.
OUTDOOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
For heaters located outdoors, using the built-in stackless
venting system.
Risk of explosion if an LP (propane) gas unit is
installed in a pit or other low spot. LP gas is heavier than
air. Do not install the heater using LP gas in pits or other
locations where gas might collect. Consult your local build-
ing code officials to determine installation requirements of
heater relative to LP gas storage tanks and filling equipment.
Installation must meet the requirements of the Standard for
the Storage and Handling of Liquid Petroleum
Gases,
ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition). Consult local codes and fire pro-
tection authorities about specific installation restrictions.
Locate the heater on a level surface in an open area that is
protected from drainage or run-off. Install the heater in an
area where leaves or other debris will not collect on or
around the heater. Do not install the heater where water
(including sprinklers or runoff) will fall directly onto the
jacket.
HEATER CLEARANCES – OUTDOOR
If the heater is located under a roof or deck overhang,
there must be at least three feet (3’) clear space between
the bottom of the overhang and the top of the heater
exhaust vent. The heater must be at least six inches (6”)
from the nearest wall (clearance for service access will
depend on the installation). If the heater is under a roof or
deck overhang, the space around the heater must be open
on three sides.
The heater is certified for installation on combustible flooring.
The following clearances must be maintained from com-
bustible surfaces:
TOP ............................................3 FEET
ALL SIDES..............................6 INCHES
Orient the heater for convenient access to the water con-
nections and the gas and electrical connections.
