SECTION I. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following.

1.This light can be installed on storable above ground or permanent above ground pools.

2.A storable pool has a maximum water depth of 42 inches and is so constructed that it may be readily disassembled for storage and re-assembled to its original integrity.

3.A permanent pool has a maximum water depth over 42 inches. Do not install on therapeutic pools, hydro-massage bathtubs, spas or hot tubs.

4.To reduce the risk of electric shock, if any cord becomes damaged, return the entire transformer assembly for repair or replacement.

5.Risk of entrapment, injury or death. Use plumbing passageways only to return water to pool. Do not use as a suction device.

6.Risk of electrical shock. Connect only to a grounding type circuit protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Contact a licensed electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacle or circuit is protected by a GFCI. Do not use an extension cord.

7.Locate your pool so that the wall is at least 10 feet from all electrical receptacles and at least

20 feet from all receptacles not protected by a GFCI. It is also very important to locate the pool so that it is not under any electrical wiring, that is less than 18 feet vertically above the pool wall and within an area located 10 feet outside the pool walls. The pool must also never be located under any lighting fixture or within five (5) feet measured horizontally from any fixture mounted less than five (5) feet vertically above the pool water level.

8.Risk of injury. Install the top of the lens with a minimum of 8 inches and a maximum of 10 inches below top of pool wall or in manufacturers pre-punched return fitting hole.

9.Do not use electrical equipment within 10 feet of pool wall unless specifically U.L. listed for that use.

SECTION II. LAMP HOUSING INSTALLATION

NOTE

Installation of the lamp housing into the pool wall is the same for both the storable and the permanent above ground pools.

1.Remove the bulb retainer nut and push the bulb assembly out from the rear of the fitting body so that it will come out of the front of the fitting. The flow director will come off along with the bulb assembly; see Figure 1. Push the red cap/plug in the end of the bulb assembly. It will be removed later.

2.Unscrew the threaded wall flange from the fitting body by rotating it counter-clockwise.

Quasar specifications

Pentair Quasar is an innovative pool and spa filtration system designed to enhance water quality while providing exceptional energy efficiency and ease of use. Known for its advanced engineering and robust features, the Quasar series stands out in the competitive world of pool maintenance.

One of the key features of the Pentair Quasar is its advanced filtration technology, which integrates multi-layer filtration media to effectively capture both large debris and microscopic particles. This results in exceptionally clean water, ensuring that pool owners can enjoy crystal-clear swimming conditions. The multi-layer system minimizes the need for frequent filter changes, thus significantly reducing operational costs and environmental impact.

The Quasar utilizes cutting-edge pump technology, designed to operate efficiently at varying flow rates. This dynamic performance allows for optimal circulation without wasting energy, catering to different pool sizes and requirements. The variable-speed pumps are engineered to deliver silent operation while achieving significant energy savings compared to traditional single-speed pumps. This aligns well with the growing trend towards sustainability in pool management.

Another standout characteristic is its user-friendly control system, which features intuitive touchscreen interfaces that allow for easy adjustments to temperature, filtration schedules, and maintenance alerts. The user-centric design ensures that operators, regardless of experience level, can manage water quality effectively. Moreover, this system can seamlessly integrate with modern smart home technologies, allowing users to monitor and control their pool environment remotely via mobile applications.

The Pentair Quasar also emphasizes durability and reliability. Constructed from high-quality materials resistant to corrosion and UV damage, the system is built to withstand the rigors of outdoor environments. Maintenance is simplified further by design elements that facilitate easy access to internal components, making routine servicing more convenient.

In addition, the Quasar series features advanced water sanitization technologies, including options for salt chlorination systems which promote a more natural swimming experience, free from harsh chemicals. This enhances swimmer comfort while maintaining the highest water sanitation standards.

In summary, the Pentair Quasar represents a leap forward in pool filtration technology. With its multi-layer filtering capabilities, energy-efficient pumps, intuitive control systems, and enhanced durability, it offers an optimal solution for homeowners looking to maintain pristine pool conditions with minimal effort and environmental impact. The Quasar is a testament to Pentair's commitment to innovation in water technology, making it a preferred choice for discerning pool enthusiasts.
