E. Do not opWmte the pool heater unless the pool or spa is . property filled with water. F. Before operating the appliance for thd-first'time or after it has. been off for an extended time, perform the following checklist 1. kemove debris or other articles from inside the heater and the area around the heater and its exhaust vent. Make sure the ventilation openings are clear of debris or obstruction. For installations in an enclosed space, make sure openings for combustion and ventilation air are unobstructed. 2. Keep• hgater area clear and free from combustibles, flammable liquids and chemicals. 3. Check that all water connections -are tight. 4. Water must be flowing through the heater during dperation. Make sure that pooUspa is filled with water and have pump operating. Check that water flow is unobstructed from the appliance. When operating for the first time or after an extended shut -down, run filter pump for several minutes to clear all air from the system. 34 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Sectio44:- Operation Instructions 1. STOP! Read the safety information on (page 33). - 2: Set both pool and spa thermostats to the lowest settings. 3.Turn off all electric power to the appliance. 4. This appliance does not have a pilot. It is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the.bumer. Do not try to light theibutner by hand. 5. Remove the access door panels by -unfastening the four screws- located on each door, then lift up and out from the bottomof the panel to remove. If necessary, the screws may be used as handles, see Figure 25. 6. Toggle -Style Valve: Pull toggle toward you to turn gas off;, see Figure 26. 7. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If you then sriiell gas, STOP! Follow "B" in the "Before Start-up" instructions (page 33). If you don't smell gas, go to the next step. S. Push the toggle switch away. from you to switch the gas on 9. Replace the Door Access Panels. All panels must be in place] when operating the heater. 10. Set 3-way valves on inlet and outlet to pool or spa, as appropriate. 11. Tufa on all electric power to the appliance. 12. Press either the POOL ON or SPAON button switch on the operating control. 13. Set the thermostat to desired setting (NOTICE:' Setpoint must be above actual water temperature or burner will not fire). See "OPERATING the CONTROL PANEL". 14. The blower should come on immediately, and after about 20 seconds, the burner should fire. When operating for the first time, the burner may not fire on the first try because of air in the gas line. If it does not fire at first, push the OFF switch, wait five minutes, and again push the POOL or SPA ON switch. The burner should fire after about 20 seconds. You may have to repeat this until all of the air has cleared the.gas line. .You are here. it �e Figure 25.. Gas contnil Is shown OFF_ Push toggle switch away from you Figure 26. 15. The burner should fire until the'poollspa temperature reaches the desired temperature set on the thermostat. The blower will continue to run for about 45 seconds after the burner shuts off. If any of the safety interlocks should open during burner operation, the burner shuts off immediately, but the blower continues to run for about 45 seconds, Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the appliance. 16. If the�appliance will not operate, follow the instructions below "TO TURN OFF GAS TO THE APPLIANCE", and call your service technician or gas supplier.. TO TURN OFF GASTO APPLIANCE 1. Press the OFF button on operating control 2. Switch off all electric power to the unit. . 3. Remove the access door panels, see Figure 25. 4. Toggle -Style Valve: Pull toggle toward you to turn gas off, see Figure 26. 5. Replace the Access Door Panels. Section 2. Warning and Safety Instructions 9 CONSUMER INFORMATION AND SAFETY f _ OWARNING j The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission ugams that carbon monoxide is an "invisible killer". Carbon monoxide i is a colorless and odorless gas. 1. Carbon monoxide is produced by burning fuel, including natural gas and propane. 2. Proper installation, operation and maintenance of fuel-Niming appliances in the home is the most important factor in reducing carbon monoxide poisoning. 3. Be sure that fuel burning -appliances such asiheaters are installed by professionals according to manufacturers instructions and codes. 4. Always. follow the manufacturers directions for safe operation 5. Have the heating system (including vents) inspected and serviced annually by a trained service technician. 6. • Examine vents regularly for improper connections, visible cracks, rust or stains.. 7.. Install battery -operated carbon monoxide alarms. The alarms should be certified to the requirements of the most recent UL, IAS, CSA and IAPMO standard for carbon monoxide alarms. Test carbon monoxide alarms - regularly and replace dead batteries. GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS. NOTICE: • • Combustion air contaminated by -corrosive chemical fumes can damage the heater and will void the warranty. • The Combination Gas Control Valve on this heater differs from most appliance gas controls. If it must be replaced, for safety reasons replace it only with an identical gas control. • 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 GSA Intemaponal as complying with the Standard for Gas Fred Pool Heaters, - ANSI Z21.56/CSA 4.7, and is intended for use in heating fresh water swimming pools or spas. • The heater is designed for the heating of chlodno, bromine or salt system swimming pools and Spas. It should NOT be used as a space heating boiler, or general purpose water heater. • The heater is design certified by CSA International for installation on combustible flooring. Specified minimum clearances must be maintained to combustible surfaces (see "Heater Clearances", page 19). • 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. • The heater may not be installed within 5 ft. (1.5M ) of the inside surface of a pool or spa unless it is separated by a solid fence, wall or other permanent barrier. k�H .

Exception: When a window in existing exterior walls is enclosed by an addition, an amount equal to the area of this window may be subtracted from the glazing area for the addition for that overhang and orientation. R405.53.2 Overhangs. Overhang effect is measured by Overhang Separation, which is the vertical measure of the distance from the top of a window to the bottom of the overhang. The overhang for adjustable exterior shading devices shall be determined at its most extended position. Nonpermanent shading devices such as canvas awnings shall not be considered overhangs. Permanently attached wood and metal awnings may be considered overhangs. R405.5.33 Doors with glazing. For doors that are opaque or where the glass is less than one-third of the area of the door, the total door area shall be included in the door calculation. For unlabeled sliding glass doors or when glass areas in doors are greater than or equal to orie-third of the area of the door, the glazing portion shall be included in the glazing calculation and the opaque portion of the door shall be included in the door calculation. When glass areas in doors are greater than or equal to one-third of the area of the door, the door shall be included in the glazing calculation as a total fenestration using the tested U-factor and solar heat gain coefficient. R405.5.3.4 Maximum fenestration SHGC. The Pro- posed Design must have either an area -weighted aver- age maximum fenestration SHGC of 0.50 or a window area -weighted average overhang depth of 4.0 feet or greater (all conditioned space windows must be included in the calculation). The area -weighted average maximum fenestration U-Factor permitted using tradeoffs from Section R402.1.5 or R405 shall be 0.48 in Climate Zones 4 and 5 and 0.40 in Climate Zones 6 through 8 for vertical fenestration, and 0.75 in Climate Zones 4 through 8 for skylights. The area -weighted average maximum fenestration SHGC permitted using tradeoffs from Section R405 in Climate Zones I through 3 shall be 0.50.
