SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)
Do not attempt to adjust the gas flow by adjusting the reg- ulator setting.
Risk of fire or explosion from incorrect fuel use or faulty fuel conversion. Do not try to run a heater set up for natural gas on LP gas (Propane) or vice versa. Only qualified service technicians should attempt to convert heater from one fuel to the other.
Do not attempt to alter the rated input or type of gas by changing the orifice. If it is necessary to convert to a differ- ent type of gas, consult your
The heater is available for use with natural gas or LP (propane) gas. Refer to the nameplate for the type of gas the heater is equipped to use.
•Use heater only with the fuel for which it is designed. Do not attempt to convert from one type of gas to another.
•If heater design does not match available fuel, have a qualified service technician convert the heater to the correct fuel before putting heater into operation.
Risk of fire or explosion from flammable vapors. Do not store gasoline, cleaning fluids, varnishes, paints, or other volatile flammable liquids near heater or in the same room with heater.
Risk of fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, or asphyxiation if exhaust venting system leaks. Only quali- fied service technicians should attempt to service the heater, as leakage of exhaust products or flammable gas may result from incorrect servicing.
Risk of explosion if an LP (propane) gas unit is installed in a pit or other low spot. LP gas is heavier than air. Do not install an LP gas fired heater in pits or other locations where gas might collect. Consult local codes and fire protection authorities about specific installa- tion requirements and restrictions. Locate the heater away from LP gas storage and filling equipment as specified by the Standard for the Storage and Handling of Liquified Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest edition).
Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not correct- ly vented. Follow venting instructions exactly when installing heater. Do not use a draft hood with this heater, as the exhaust is under pressure from the burner blower and a draft hood will allow exhaust fumes to blow into the room housing the heater.
The heater is supplied with an integral venting system for outdoor installation. A vent conversion kit (See Page 14 for Part Numbers for Conversion Kits) is available for indoor installations. Use the specified venting, and only the speci- fied venting, when heater is installed indoors.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
Connect heater to 120 Volt, 60 Hz., 1 Phase power only. Verify proper operation after servicing.
Do not allow children to play on or around heater or asso- ciated equipment.
Never allow children to use the pool or spa without adult supervision.
Read and follow other safety information contained in this manual prior to operating this pool heater.
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS/ REQUIREMENTS
NOTICE: Combustion air contaminated by corrosive chemi- cal fumes can damage the heater and will void the warranty. NOTICE: The Combination Gas Control Valve on this appliance differs from most appliance gas controls. If it must be replaced, for safety reasons replace it only with an identical gas control.
NOTICE: The jacket covers must be in place to provide proper ventilation. Do not operate the heater for more than five (5) minutes with the jacket covers removed.
This heater is design certified by CSA International as com- plying with the Standard for
NOTICE: Do not use this heater as a heating boiler, water heater, or for heating
The heater requires an external 120 VAC
For indoor installation, the heater must be located as close as practical to a chimney or gas vent.
The heater is design certified by CSA International for installation on combustible flooring. Specified minimum clearances must be maintained to combustible surfaces (see “Installation Instructions”, Pages 9 - 11).
The heater should be located in an area where leakage of the heater or connections will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the heater or to the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suit- able drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the heater. The pan must not restrict air flow.
The heater may not be installed within five feet of the inside surface of a pool or spa unless it is separated by a solid fence, wall or other permanent barrier.
LPG (Propane) fired heaters must not be installed in garages in Massachusetts, by order of the Massachusetts State Fire Marshall. For more information, call the Fire Marshall’s office.
