MIXING VALVE

Fig. 14: Single Pool Heater Application

A thermostatically controlled mixing valve is used to mix the outlet water with the pool water. This mixed water is supplied as the inlet water to the pool heater. The proper configuration is shown in Fig. 15. The active element of the valve adjusts the mixing ratio to maintain the inlet water above 105°F.

Automatic Chlorinators and Chemical Feeders

CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heater and void the warranty.

All chemicals must be introduced and completely di- luted into the pool or spa water before being circulated through the heater. Do not place chlorine tablets or bromine sticks in the skimmer. High chemical concen- trations will result when the pump is not running (e.g. overnight).

Chlorinators must feed downstream of the heater and have an anti-siphoning device to prevent chemical back-up into the heater when the pump is shut off.

NOTE: High chemical concentrates from feeders and chlorinators that are out of adjustment will cause very rapid corrosion of the heat exchanger in the heater. Such damage is not covered under the warranty.

Winterizing Your Heater

Heaters installed outdoors in freezing climate areas should be shut down for the winter. To shut down heater, turn off manual main gas valve and main gas shut-off. Close isolation valves and remove water pip- ing from the in/out header on the heater. Drain the heater and any piping of all water that may experience below-freezing temperatures.

Pool/Spa Water Chemistry

NOT : ChemicalE imbalance can cause severe damage to your heater and associated equipment.

Water Hardness

Water hardness is mainly due to the presence of cal- cium and magnesium salts dissolved in the water. The concentration of these salts is expressed in mg/l, ppm or grains per gallon, as a measure of relative hardness of water. Grains per gallon is the common reference measurement used in the U.S. water heater industry. Hardness expressed as mg/L or ppm may be divided by 17.1 to convert to grains per gallon. Water may be classified as very soft, slightly hard, moderately hard or hard based on its hardness number. The salts in water will precipitate out when the water is heated and will cause accelerated lime and scale accumulation on a heat transfer surface.
