This appliance is equipped with an
WARNING
unconventional gas control valve that is factory
set with a manifold pressure of -.2 inches wc.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, ser-
vice or maintenance can cause property damage,
personal injury or loss of life. Installation or service
must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency
or the gas supplier. If this control is replaced, it must be
replaced with an identical control.
Do not attempt to adjust the gas flow by adjusting
the regulator setting.
Risk of fire or explosion from incorrect
WARNING
fuel use or faulty fuel conversion. Do not try to run a
heater set up for natural gas on propane gas 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 Pentair dealer. Serious mal-
function of the burner can occur which may result in loss of
life. Any additions, changes, or conversions required in
order for the appliance to satisfactorily meet the application
needs must be made by a Pentair dealer or other qualified
agency using factory specified and approved parts.
The heater is available for use with natural gas or LP
(propane) gas only. It is not designed to operate with any
other fuels. 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.
• If a fuel conversion is necessary, refer this work to a
qualified service technician or gas supplier before
putting the heater into operation.
Risk of fire or explosion from flamma-

ing, or asphyxiation if exhaust venting system
leaks. Only qualified 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 unit is installed
WARNING
near propane gas storage. Propane (LP) gas is heavier
than air. Consult local codes and fire protection authorities
about specific installation requirements and restrictions.
Locate the heater away from propane gas storage and fill-
ing equipment as specified by the Standard for the
Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases,
CAN/CSA B149.2 (latest edition) or ANSI/NFPA 58 (latest
edition).
Risk of asphyxiation if exhaust is not

correctly 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
installations in enclosures (Canada) or indoors (U.S.). Use
the specified venting, and only the specified venting,
when heater is installed in an enclosure or indoors. In
Canada, this pool heater can only be installed outdoors
or in an enclosure that is not normally occupied and has
no openings directly into occupied areas. See Page 11 for
enclosure venting requirements.
when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Wiring errors
can also destroy the control board.
Connect heater to 120 or 240 Volt, 60 Hz., 1 Phase
power only.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
Do not allow children to play on or around heater or
associated equipment.
Never allow children to use the pool or spa without adult

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS/
REQUIREMENTS
NOTICE: Combustion air contaminated by corrosive
chemical 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 access door panels must be in place to
provide proper ventilation. Do not operate the heater for
more than five (5) minutes with the access door panels
removed.
This heater is design certified by CSA International as
complying with the Standard for Gas Fired Pool Heaters,
ANSI Z21.56/CSA 4.7, and is intended for use in heating
fresh water swimming pools or spas.
NOTICE: Do not use this heater as a heating boiler,
water heater, or for heating salt-water pools. This heater
is intended for use in heating fresh water swimming
pools or spas only. The heater requires an external 120
or 240 VAC single-phase electric power source.
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 8 and 9).
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 suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed
under the heater. The pan must not restrict air flow.
