MAINTENANCE & OPERATION (continued)
Seasonal Use & Shut Down
During the Swim Season:
•During the swim season, even if the pool or spa is not in use, allow water to flow through the heater. Doing so eliminates the need to reposition valves when you do wish to heat the pool or spa.
•During periods when heating or cooling is not desired, leave heater controls in the OFF position.
