2.If the FlexTemp selector switch is set to "Pool" or "Spa", and if the water temperature is not warm enough, the FlexTemp control signals the combustion system to start.

5.The igniter is allowed to reach ignition temperature, at which it glows bright red- orange. This is visible through the combustion chamber view port.
6.The gas valve is opened and gas flows into the combustion air. The gas/air mixture flows through the burner into the combustion chamber. It is ignited by the igniter.
7.The ignition control electronically senses successful ignition by “flame rectification”, and the gas valve is allowed to stay on. The igniter is
8.The heater operates for as long as the FlexTemp control demands heat, subject to
