SECTION 3: INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Activating
the Aqua-Hot
3.30
Initial Activation of the Aqua-Hot
1.
Move the Aqua-Hot's "Diesel" switch to the ON position. Do this by pressing the
switch in an upward motion.
NOTE: Activate the "Diesel" switch for approximately five seconds ONLY and then
switch it OFF. This procedure will purge the Diesel-Burner's fuel system by
allowing the Heater's Fuel-Pump to operate for approximately three minutes
during its normal shutdown/purge cycle. After the three minute purge cycle has
ended, repeat this procedure once more.
2.
Move the Aqua-Hot's "Diesel" switch to the ON position and leave it on. This
procedure will activate the Diesel-Burner and the Indicator Light circuit of the switch.
NOTES:
A. It will take approximately 30 seconds before the Diesel-Burner will ignite
and exhaust can be heard exiting the heater.
B. Allow approximately 10-20 minutes for the Aqua-Hot to reach normal
operating temperature (approximately 195°F).
3.
Because the number and voltage of the Electric Elements vary by model, locate the
Marking Plate on the Aqua-Hot (reference Figure 1 for the Marking Plate locations,
as well as Figure 3 for additional information) to determine which model is employed.
Follow the Electric Element activation instructions below.
AHE-100-04S
Move the Aqua-Hot's "Electric" switch to the ON position. This will supply 120
Volt-AC Power to the Aqua-Hot's Electric Heating Element.
AHE-130-04X
Move the Aqua-Hot's "Electric" switch to the ON position and move the "High/Low"
switch to the "High" position. This will supply 120 Volt-AC power to both Electric
Heating Elements.
NOTE: Both the 12 Volt-DC powered Diesel-Burner and all Electrical Heating Elements
are thermostatically controlled. Either or both heating sources will automatically
maintain the temperature of the Aqua-Hot's antifreeze and water heating
solution.
4.
Once the Aqua-Hot has reached its normal operating temperature of approximately
195°F, switch ON each Interior and Fresh Water Tank Thermostat to their maximum
temperature settings. This procedure will activate all Interior and Fresh Water Tank
Heat Exchangers in each particular heating zone.
5.
The Aqua-Hot is now ready for normal operation and use.
