Jandy' Pro Series, JA' Gas -Fired Pool & Spa Heat(, � _"',nstallation '& Operation Manual
Carefully monitor the water temperature of your
pool in the summertime. You can reduce heater
usage due to warmer air temperatures.
Find the proper setting on the pool heater
temperature control and use the Set Point'Lockout
feature to discourage further adjustments.
4. Set the pump time clock to start the pump no
earlier than 6:00 AM during the pool heating
season. -This is the time when nightly heat loss
balances.
S. If the pool is only going to be used on weekends,
reduce the heater temperature control setting by 8
or 10 degrees during the week. Reset it to the 78°F
(25°C) level a day or so before you plan to..use the
pool.

1.5 ---------------
Certification Codes and Standards
The heater is design -certified by CSA (Canadian
Standards Association) compliant with the latest edition of
the Standard for Gas Fired Pool Heaters, ANSI® Z21.56
in the USA and CSA 4.7 in Canada.
All Jandy Pro Series heaters must be installed in
accordance with the local building and installation codes
as per the utility or Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
In the absence of local codes, refer to the latest edition of
the following national codes for installation:
1. In the United States, the National Fuel Gas Code,
NFPA® 54/ANSI Z223.1. Pay particular attention
to the chapter addressing Venting ofEguipment.
2. In Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CAN/CSA-B 149.1. Minimum
combustion air requirements MUST be
followed for proper and safe operation. The
Jandy Pro Series JXi heater may not operate
properly when installed with only the minimum
combustion air openings allowed in CAN/
CSA-B 149.1.
The JXi pool and spa heaters meet or exceed the
requirements of energy conservation regulations, such as
those in California, Hawaii, New York, Oregon and other
states that have disallowed the use of continuously lit pilot
type ignition sources. In addition, the natural gas models
of this heater comply with the California South Coast Air
Quality Management District's (SCAQMD) Rule 1146.2
for Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions.
Any changes to the heater, gas controls, air orifice, gas
orifices, wiring, draft diverter, or improper installation.
may void the warranty. If change is required to any of the
above, consult the factory.
1.6 General Operation Description
In the JXi heater, the blower draws air and fuel through
specially designed orifices for both air and gas, then
delivers the precise mixture to the burner located inside
the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber
is completely sealed and contains the heat exchanger,
which surrounds the burner. Once combustion gases pass
through the heat exchanger, the flow is directed through
an exhaust duct located on the side of the combustion
chamber, where it vents to the atmosphere.
1.7 Safety Controls
The JXi heater is equipped with the following safety
controls to protect internal componerits and prolong the
life of the heater.
Air Flow Switch
The air flow switch monitors the vacuum (negative
pressure) within the Blower housing. The. air flow switch,
is factory set and the ignition module will not operate
unless the air pressure switch and all safety switches are
satisfied.
Water Pressure Switch
Operating the heater without sufficient water flow may
severely damage the heater. If water flow to the heater is
restricted, the water pressure switch prevents the burner
from firing. The control panel will display an error
message to indicate water flow is insufficient.

"ool & Spa Heater Installation & Operation Manual V Wit FeW M W. W Page 5
NOTE: If the heater is installed�below the level of the pool,(or
more than two feet above the pool level), the pressure
switch setting must be adjusted. See Section 5.4
Adjusting the Water Pressure Switch for guidelines.
Water Temperature Control
All heater models are equipped with an electronic control
which senses water temperature by means of a thermistor
and controls heater operation to bring the water to the
temperature selected. It has an option\for two (2) separate.
thermostat settings which are typical]' used to set pool and
spa temperatures.
Ignition Control
The ignition control provides energy for ignition of the air/
gas mixture, monitors the flame and controls the gas valve.
When the temperature control calls for heat,`the ignition
control initiates the start-up process by first purging the
combustion chamber gases. The ignition cont%ol will
then energize the igniter and open the gas valve when
the igniter surface is sufficiently hot. During the start-up
process and after ignition, the ignition control system is
continually monitoring the flame condition. If the control
senses an unstable flame it will close the gas valve as a
safety precaution.
