The heater must be electrically grounded and bonded in
accordance with local codes, or, in the absence of local
codes, with the latest edition of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. (Canada - Canadian Electrical
Code, CSA C22.1, Part 1 and Part 2.)
CAUTION
120 VAC and 240 VAC is applied, damage to the trans-
former and PC board may result. Such damages are not
covered under manufacturer's limited warranty.
NOTE: Input power to the heater (120 or 240 VAC) can be
supplied from the load (pump) side of time clock or directly
from the GFCI power source. It is preferred that full-time
power be supplied to the heater from the GFCI power
source, and that the heater be controlled by the fireman's
switch connection or using a two or three-wire remote. If
using a switched GFCI power source, the heater could display
false service indicators on the display panel if the pump is
turned off.
