CONSUMER INFORMATION AND SAFETY
THE MASTERTEMP HEATER IS CLASSIFIED AS A CLASS 4 LOW NOX BOILER.
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the heater. Do not
use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater
and to replace any part of control system and gas control which has been under water.
CARBON MONOXIDE GAS IS DEADLY – Exhaust from this pool heater contains toxic levels of carbon monoxide, a dangerous,
poisonous gas you cannot see or smell.
The 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. Proper installation, operation and maintenance of fuel-burning appliances in the home is the most important factor in reducing
carbon monoxide poisoning.
3.
Be sure that fuel burning appliances such as heaters are installed by professionals according to manufacturer's instructions and
codes.
4. Always follow the manufacturer's directions for safe operation.
5.
Have the heating system (including vents) inspected and serviced annually by a trained service technician.
6. Examine vents regularly for improper connections, visible cracks, rust or stains.
7.
Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms. The alarms should be certified to the requirements of the most recent UL, CE,
IAS, CSA and IAPMO standard for carbon monoxide alarms. Test carbon monoxide alarms regularly and replace dead batteries.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that elevated water temperature can be hazardous. See below
for water temperature guidelines before setting temperature.
1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 40° C. A temperature of 37° C. is considered safe for a healthy adult.
Special caution is suggested for young children. Prolonged immersion in hot water can induce hyperthermia.
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 above 37° 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 37° C. maximum rule.
4.
Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should check the water temperature with an accurate thermometer. Spa or hot tub
thermostats may err in regulating water temperatures by as much as -15° C.
5. Persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or blood pressure problems should obtain their
physician's advice before using spas or hot tubs.
6. Persons taking medication which induce drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants should not use
spas or hot tubs.
