The heater is designed and constructed to provide long
performance life when installed and operated properly
under normal conditions. Periodic inspections, especially
at spring start-up, are important to keep your heater
running safely and effi ciently through the years. Zodiac
Pool Systems, Inc. recommends that the homeowner
inspect the heater on a regular basis (especially after
abnormal weather conditions), and arrange to have a
professional inspection at least once a year by a qualifi ed
service technician.
WARNING
For your safety, when starting the heater, keep your head and face
away from the exhaust grill opening and blower inlet grill to prevent
any risk of personal injury. Make sure all doors/panels are securely
in place and stand back from the heater.

•
Keep the top of the heater, under the heater, and
surrounding area clear of all debris and combustible
materials such as paper, leaves, etc.
• If there is a pressure relief valve, check for corrosion in
and around the valve. If there is corrosion, turn off the
fi lter pump and replace the pressure relief valve.
• Once a year check that water is running freely through
the pressure relief valve. To check, turn on the fi lter
pump and lift the release lever on the top of the valve.
• Be sure combustion air and ventilation openings are
not blocked.

• Check for loose or broken wires and terminal
connections.

pump, there is a chance that power will be disconnected to the
heater before the fan is able to fully purge the combustion chamber.

f. Control circuit fuse
g. Ignition control
h. Air pressure switch
• Inspect the inlet grill at the blower for blockage,
leakage, and corrosion.
• Inspect the combustion blower for damage.
• Conduct a normal operating cycle and observe that
the sequence proceeds as intended.
•
If the heater is equipped with a pressure relief valve,
clean any accumulated corrosion and make sure that
water runs freely when lever is lifted.
•
Inspect combustion chamber and blower exterior for
corrosion and indication of improper operation.
•
Inspect electrical controls for deterioration. Repair
and replace as necessary.
