Installation Notes
This heater must be installed by a qualified pool professional, licensed gas technician, or licensed contractor as required by local code. Proper installation requires correct natural gas supply sizing, gas pressure verification, electrical wiring, bonding, grounding, water flow verification, plumbing layout, combustion air, and venting where required.
Before installation, confirm that the site requires a natural gas heater and that the gas supply can support a 400K BTU class pool/spa heater. The system should also be evaluated for correct flow rate, equipment pad clearance, automation requirements, and ASME compliance needs.
Water chemistry must be maintained within recommended ranges to protect the cupronickel heat exchanger, bronze headers, and connected pool equipment. Improper water balance, poor flow, incorrect gas pressure, or improper installation can damage the heater and may void warranty coverage.
