Receiving equipment

The manufacturer recommends that this manual be
reviewed thoroughly before installing the pool/spa heater. If
there are any questions that this manual does not answer,
please contact the factory or your local representative.
On receipt of your equipment it is suggested that you
visually check for external damage to the carton. If the

of Lading when signing for the equipment. Remove the
heater from the carton. If it is damaged, report the damage
to the carrier immediately. Save the carton.
These items are shipped inside a box in the carton with
the heater:

Rating and certifications

These heaters are design-certified and tested under the
latest requirements of the ANSI Z21.56 / CSA 4.7 Standard
for Gas-Fired Pool Heaters. All heaters can be used either
indoor or outdoors when appropriate venting is installed.
The appropriate top designated for each type of use is
required. If necessary, the top can be changed at a later
date to change from outdoor to indoor or vice versa.

Elevation

Rated inputs are suitable for up to 5,000 feet (1524 m)
elevation. For elevations above 5,000 feet (1524 m),
consult the factory.

4. INSTALLATION

WARNING: This unit contains refractory ceramic
A
fiber (RCF) insulation in the combustion chamber. RCF,
as manufactured, does not contain respirable crystalline
silica. However, following sustained exposure to very
high temperatures (>2192°F), the RCF can transform
into crystalline silica (cristabolite). The International
Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified
the inhalation of crystalline silica (cristabolite) as
carcinogenic to humans.
When removing the burners or heat exchangers, take
precautions to avoid creating airborne dust and avoid
inhaling airborne fibers. When cleaning spills, use wet
sweeping or High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA)
filtered vacuum to minimize airborne dust. Use feasible
engineering controls such as local exhaust ventilation
or dust collecting systems to minimize airborne dust.
Wear appropriate
including gloves, safety glasses with side shields, and
appropriate NIOSH certified respiratory protection,
to avoid inhalation of airborne dust and airborne fiber
particles.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: These instructions are intended
only for the use by qualified personnel, specifically
trained and experienced in the installation of this type
of heating equipment and related system components.
Installation and service personnel may be required by
some states to be licensed. If your state is such, be sure
your contractor bears the appropriate license. Persons
