MECHANICAL (FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY)

PROBLEM	CAUSE	SOLUTION
Harmonics, or whining noise.	U.G. inoperative	Check movement by putting in hot water (110°F
		or higher). If no movement, replace.
	*Debris or restriction in system	Locate the restriction and remove. Flush system
		and clean.
	*Debris in gas line	Remove debris or blow out gas line.
	Low flow	Scale forming in heat exchanger - clean heat
		exchanger and check pool pH and total alkalinity.

Heater going on and off continously.

Liming or scale forming on

7.8heat exchanger.

Sooting

Pilot outage.

Yellow lazy flame

Outer jacket very hot (paint blistered)

Takes long time to heat pool or spa.

Dirty filter	Backwash filter.
Low water level in pool	Raise water level.
External bypass setting out of
adjustment	Adjust bypass
*Pressure switch out of
adjustment	Adjust pressure switch
Pool water	Recommended pH should be between 7.4 and
	7/8 total alkalinity 100-150 PPM maximum. Hard-
	ness 150-400 PPM maximum.
High flow rates	Reduce by adding manual bypass valve and
	adjust by putting thermometer in header (1/4"
	NPT) drain opening. Set bypass so thermometer
	reads between 105° and 110°F.
U.G. Inoperative	Check movement by putting in hot water (110°F
	or higher). If no movement, replace.
*Air starvation	Refer to installation instructions.
*Improper venting	Follow recommended installation instructions.
*Insects or debris clogging
burner intake ports	Clean burners.

Low gas pressure	Adjust gas pressure.
*Insects or debris clogging
burner intake ports	Clean burners.
*Broken refractory caused by
shipping damage or improper
combustion	Replace refractory panels.
Excessive sooting of heat
exchanger	Determine cause of sooting & correct.
Calculate temperature in °/hr	Heat rise (°/hr.)= Heater Output

	Pool gallonage x 8.33
	or refer to heater sizing chart.
	This does not take into account heat loss due
	to weather.
Filter not running long enough	Reset time clock.
Dirty filter	Clean filter.
Gas line or meter undersized	Refer to installation instructions.
