WARNING — FOR YOUR SAFETY

This product must be installed and serviced by a professional service technician, qualified in pool
heater installation. Some jurisdictions require that installers be licensed. Check with your local building
authority about contractor licensing requirements. Improper installation and/or operation could create
carbon monoxide gas and flue gases which could cause serious injury or death. Improper installation
and/or operation will void the warranty.
WARNING — This heater is equipped with an unconventional gas control valve that is factory set with
a manifold pressure of -.2 inches wc. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or
maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury or loss of life. Installation or service must
be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier. If this control is replaced, it
must be replaced with an identical control.
Do not attempt to adjust the gas flow by adjusting the regulator setting.
8 Section 2. Warning and Safety Instructions
SAFETY INFORMATION, (cont’d.)
WARNING — Risk of fire or explosion from incorrect fuel use or faulty fuel conversion. Do not try to run a
heater set up for natural gas on propane gas or vice versa. Only qualified service technicians should
attempt to convert heater from one fuel to the other. Do not attempt to alter the rated input or type of
gas by changing the orifice. If it is necessary to convert to a different type of gas, consult your Pentair
dealer. Serious malfunction of the burner can occur which may result in loss of life. Any additions,
changes, or conversions required in order for the appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs
must be made by a Pentair dealer or other qualified agency using factory specified and approved
parts. The heater is available for use with natural gas or LP (propane) gas only. It is not designed to
operate with any other fuels. Refer to the nameplate for the type of gas the heater is equipped to use.
s 5SEHEATERONLYWITHTHEFUELFORWHICHITISDESIGNED
s )F A FUEL CONVERSION IS NECESSARY REFER THIS WORK TO A QUALIlED SERVICE TECHNICIAN OR GAS SUPPLIER
before putting the heater into operation.
WARNING — Risk of fire or explosion from flammable vapors. Do not store gasoline, cleaning fluids, varnishes,
paints, or other volatile flammable liquids near heater or in the same room with heater.
WARNING — Risk of explosion if unit is installed near propane gas storage. Propane (LP) gas is heavier than
air. Consult local codes and fire protection authorities about specific installation requirements and
restrictions. Locate the heater away from propane gas storage and filling equipment as specified by
the Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, CAN/CSA B149.2 (latest
edition) or ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition).
WARNING — Risk of fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, or asphyxiation if exhaust venting system leaks. Only
qualified service technicians should attempt to service the heater, as leakage of exhaust products or
flammable gas may result from incorrect servicing.
WARNING — Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correctly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly
when installing heater. Do not use a draft hood with this heater, as the exhaust is under pressure
from the burner blower and a draft hood will allow exhaust fumes to blow into the room housing the
heater. The heater is supplied with an integral venting system for outdoor installation. A vent conversion
kit (See Page 23 for Part Numbers for Conversion Kits) is available for installations in enclosures
Canada) or indoors (U.S.). Use the specified venting, and only the specified venting, when heater is
installed in an enclosure or indoors. In Canada, this pool heater can only be installed outdoors or in
an enclosure that is not normally occupied and has no openings directly into occupied areas. See
Page 18 for enclosure venting requirements.
CAUTION — Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper
and dangerous operation. Wiring errors can also destroy the control board.

Exercise care when installing chemical feeders so as to not allow back siphoning of chemical into the heater, filters or
pump. When chemical feeders are installed in the circulation of the piping system, make sure the feeder outlet line is
down stream of the heater, and is equipped with a positive seal noncorrosive “Check Valve”, (P/N R172288), between
the feeder and heater.

CAUTION
BELOW OR ABOVE POOL INSTALLATION
The water pressure switch is set in the factory at 3.00 PSI (± 0.75 PSI). This setting is for a heater installed at pool level.
If the heater is to be installed more than 1’ above or below, the water pressure switch must be adjusted by a qualified
service technician. See page 34, Figure 29.
FLOW SWITCH
If the heater is installed more than 5’ above the pool or more than 4’ below the pool level, you will be beyond the limits
of the pressure switch and a flow switch must be installed. Locate and install the flow switch externally on the outlet
piping from the heater, as close as possible to the heater. Connect the flow switch wires in place of the water pressure
switch wires.

The gas meter should be checked to make sure that it will supply enough gas to the heater and any other appliances that
may be used on the same meter. The gas line from the meter will usually be of a larger size than the gas valve supplied
with the heater. Therefore a reduction of the connecting gas pipe will be necessary. Make this reduction as close to the
heater as possible.

WARNING
Risk of explosion if a unit burning propane gas is installed in a pit or other low spot. Propane is heavier than air. Do not
install the heater using propane in pits or other locations where gas might collect. Consult your local building code officials to
determine installation requirements and specific installation restrictions of the heater relative to propane storage tanks and filling
equipment. Installation must meet the requirements for the Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquid Petroleum Gases,
ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition) in the U.S., or CAN/CSA B149.2 (latest edition) in Canada. Consult local codes and fire protection
authorities about specific installation restrictions.

WARNING
Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correctly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly when installing heater. Do not
use a draft hood with this heater, as the exhaust is under pressure from the burner blower and a draft hood will allow exhaust
fumes to blow into the room housing the heater. Exhaust venting to the outdoors is required for all outdoor shelter installations.
WARNING
Risk of explosion if a unit burning propane gas is installed in a pit or other low spot. Propane is heavier than air. Do
not install the heater using propane in pits or other locations where gas might collect. Consult your local building code officials
to determine installation requirements and specific installation restrictions of the heater relative to propane storage tanks and
filling equipment. Installation must meet the requirements for the Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum
Gases, CAN/CSA B149.2 (latest edition) or ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition). Consult local codes and fire protection authorities
about specific installation restrictions.

WARNING
Risk of fire and explosion if installed at floor level in an automotive garage or near gasoline or flammable liquid storage.
Gasoline fumes are heavier than air and will settle to floor level in closed spaces. Gasoline fumes and spilled gasoline or other
volatile liquids (such as some paints and varnishes) will travel across the floor and can be ignited by a gas appliance.
