NOTE: The instructions in this manual are for the
use of qualified individuals specially trained and
experienced in the installation and maintenance of this
type of equipment and related system components.
Installation and service personnel are required by
some states to be licensed. Persons not qualified

Elevated water temperature can be hazardous. The
U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has these
guidelines:
1. Spa water temperatures should never exceed
104°F (40°C). A temperature of 100°F (38°C) is
considered safe for a healthy adult. Special caution
is suggested for young children.
2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during
spa or hot tub use can cause drowsiness which
could lead to unconsciousness and subsequently
result in drowning.
3. Pregnant Women Beware! Soaking in water over
102°F (39°C) can cause fetal damage during
the first three months of pregnancy resulting in
the birth of a brain-damaged or deformed child.
Pregnant women should stick to the 100°F (38°C)
maximum rule.
CAUTION: Operating control and high limit are NOT
part of the Indirect Pool Heater. These items must be
supplied separately.

NOTE: Minimum 18 AWG, 105°C, stranded wire must
be used for all low voltage (less than 30 volts) external
connections to the unit. Solid conductors should not
be used because they can cause excessive tension on
contact points. Install conduit as appropriate. All high
voltage wires must be the same size (105°C, stranded
wire) as the ones on the unit or larger.
CAUTION
4. Before entering the spa or hot tub, users should
check the water temperature with an accurate
thermometer; spa or hot tub thermostats may err
in regulating water temperatures by as much as
4°F (2.2°C).
5. Persons with a medical history of heart disease,
circulatory problems, diabetes, or blood pressure
problems should seek a physician's advice before
using pools or hot tubs.
6. Persons
drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines,
or anticoagulants, should not use spas or hot tubs.
