PART 2 - INSTALLATION / SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
SECTION 1 / RECEIVING EQUIPMENT
On receipt of your equipment it is suggested that you visually check for external damage to the carton. If the carton is damaged, a note should be made on the Bill of Lading when signing for equipment. Remove the heater from the carton and if it is damaged, report the damage to the carrier immediately.
On occasion, we ship some items loose. Be sure that you receive the number of packages indicated on the Bill of Lading.
When ordering parts, you must specify model and serial number of the heater. When ordering under warranty conditions, you must also specify date of installation.
Raypak recommends that this manual be reviewed thoroughly before installing your Raypak pool/spa heater. If there are any questions that this manual does not answer, please contact the factory or your local Raypak Representative.

These instructions are intended for the use of qualified personnel only, specifically trained and expe- rienced in the installation of this type of heating equip- ment and related system components. Installation and service personnel may be required by some states to be licensed. If your state is such, be sure your contractor bears the appropriate license. Persons not qualified shall not attempt to fix this equipment nor attempt repairs according to these instructions.
WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment, altera- tion, service or maintenance may damage the equip- ment, create a hazard resulting in asphyxiation, explo- sion or fire, and will void the warranty.
CODE REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: The heater should not be located in an area where possible water leakage will result in damage to the area adjacent to the appliance or to the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recom- mended that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the appliance. The pan must not restrict combustion air flow.
Installation must be in accordance with local codes, or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
