  • Page 7 If used outdoors, install far from open windows, doors, vents and other openings. Pentair strongly recommends that all vents, pipes and exhaust systems be initially and periodically tested for proper operation. This testing can be accomplished by using a hand-held carbon monoxide meter and/or by consulting with a gas professional.
  • Page 8 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.
  • Page 9 Section 2. Warning and Safety Instructions CONSUMER INFORMATION AND SAFETY WARNING The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that carbon monoxide is an "invisible killer". Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless gas. 1. Carbon monoxide is produced by burning fuel, including natural gas and propane. 2.
  • Page 10 Section 3. Installation Instructions Section 3: Installation Instructions HEATER DESCRIPTION Figure 1 is a diagram of the heater showing how it operates. Precisely matched orifice plates meter the air and gas into the mixer. The blower draws the air and gas through the mixer and forces it into the burner’s flame holder.
  • Page 11 Section 3. Installation Instructions SPECIFICATIONS These installation instructions are designed for use by qualified personnel only, trained especially for installation of this type of heating equipment and related components. Some states require installation and repair by licensed personnel. If this applies in your state, be sure your contractor bears the appropriate license. See Figure 2 for Outdoor and Indoor Installations.
  • Page 12 The MasterTemp heater has the unique capability of direct schedule 40 PVC plumbing connections. A set of bulkhead fittings is included with the MasterTemp heater to insure conformity with Pentair’s recommended PVC plumbing procedure. Other plumbing connections can be used. See Figure 3 for plumbing connections.
  • Page 13 Section 3. Installation Instructions VALVES When any equipment is located below the surface of the pool or spa, valves should be placed in the circulation piping system to isolate the equipment from the pool or spa. Check valves are recommended to prevent back-siphoning. Back- siphoning is most likely to occur when the pump stops, creating a pressure-suction differential.
  • Page 14 Section 3. Installation Instructions GAS CONNECTIONS GAS LINE INSTALLATIONS Before installing the gas line, be sure to check which gas the heater has been designed to burn. This is important because different types of gas require different gas pipe sizes. The rating plate on the heater will indicate which gas the heater is designed to burn.
