Unit Protection Very Important! (non titanium only)

It is your responsibility to maintain the correct chemical balance in your pool and spa water. Improper or inconsistent chemical maintenance could cause damage to your pool/spa equipment, pool surface or lining, pool heater and also could be harmful to your health. Here are a few tips to avoid these problems.

Install any chlorinating device down stream of heater with a check valve and plumbing loop between the heater and the chlorinator.

DO NOT inject chlorine gas into your pool or spa.

DO NOT use floating chlorine tablet feeders.

DO NOT put solid chlorine tablets in the skimmer.

Maintain a consistent, chemically-balanced pool. Depriving a pool of chemicals, then "shocking" it with heavy chemicals is an incorrect and sometimes damaging practice when performed too often. This is common for homeowners who are out of town for extended periods of time and their pool is neglected.

If the heat exchanger in the unit is deprived of water for several days, high chlorine gas could cause excessive corrosion, Even if power to the unit is turned off, be sure that water can still circulate through the unit at all times, especially during the summer months when no heat is required.

Make sure your unit is electrically bonded, as described in the electrical section of this manual. This will help prevent electrolysis, which could damage the heat exchanger in your pool heater.

The following are recommended water quality readings. These readings should be maintained at all times to ensure good health while protecting your pool heater investment.

PH Level.....................................7.2 - 7.8

Total Alkalinity............................80 - 100 PPM (parts per million)

Total Dissolved Solids.................below 1200 PPM

Chlorine Concentration...............(free) 1.0 - 2.0 PPM
