2. WATER CHEMISTRY • Automatic chemical dosing devices and salt chlorinators are usually more efficient in heated water, unless controlled, they can lead to excessive chlorine level which can damage your heater. • Further advice should be obtained from your pool or spa builder, accredited pool shop, or chemical supplier for the correct levels for your water. NOTE: Corrosive water voids all warranties. Chemical imbalance can cause severe damage to your heater and associated equipment.

See Vent Piping section for details. Minimum allowable space is shown on the rating plate. Follow the installation instructions provided with the Indoor Drafthood Kit for installation. NOTE: For Canada, indoor installation is restricted to an enclosure that is not occupied and does not directly communicate with an occupied area. Refer to the latest edition of CAN/CSA-B149 for specific requirements.

4.7.7. Internal Automatic Bypass Valve A built-in automatic bypass valve is provided in the In/Out header. The internal bypass valve automatically responds to changes in water pressure in the piping system. The proper amount of water flow is maintained through the heater under varying pressures dictated by the conditions of the pump and filter. 4.7.10. Pressure Relief Valve Installation To conform to local building codes, it may be necessary to install a pressure relief valve. A 3/4” (1.

4.8. Electrical Connections Be sure that electrical service to the heater has proper overload fuse or circuit breaker protection, wire size and connections which comply with all applicable codes. If any of the original wire as supplied with the appliance must be replaced, it must be replaced with type 302°F (150°C) wire or its equivalent. Si un des fils original fourni avec l’appareil doit être remplacé, utilisez un fil 302°F (150°C), ou l’équivalent.

5. CONTROLS HOT 5.1. P-106 Control Adjustments The P-106 has an analog control system. The pool or spa water temperature is controlled by the thermostat on the upper front panel of the heater. The control center contains an On/Off toggle switch and a thermostat. The switch functions as a means for turning the heater On or Off. The thermostat is fitted with a means of limiting the upper temperature limit below the maximum level.
PAGE 17
5.2. P-156 Control Adjustments 5.3. P-156 Thermostat Operation The P-156 has a digital control system. The pool heater (chauffe-piscine) touchpad, located on the upper front panel of the heater, allows the user to select either POOL or SPA operation, and to adjust the setpoint temperature. The LCD display window indicates the mode (OFF, SPA, POOL) and the actual water temperature. A manual power switch provided below the touchpad turns the control power ON or OFF. Program Mode Button (SW1) Figure 22.
PAGE 18
Figure 25. Run Time Indicator Press the DOWN button. The Fault History displays up to ten faults in memory. The order of the faults begins with “Fault Last,” which is the most recent fault, and proceeds through ten most recent messages in chronological order. The second line of the display shows the fault message. If there are no faults in the history buffer, the second line reads “All Faults Clear.
PAGE 19
NOTE: Both the POOL and SPA setpoints will revert back to 65°F (18°C) and the POOL and SPA maximum temperature settings will be 104°F (40°C). These setpoints will need to be readjusted to desired settings. NOTE: The LCD temperature display may not agree with the temperature reading of your pool or spa thermometer. The heater reads the water temperature at the inlet.
PAGE 20
5.4.1. Remote Control Installation and Operation CAUTION: Before installing remote controls to the P-156 heaters, read the following: The digital thermostat model is remote-ready in most cases. The digital liquid crystal display (LCD) shows the actual pool temperature, operating status, and service codes. See Figure 28. The touch pad on the control panel allows you to select the desired pool or spa temperature.
PAGE 21
NOTE: The remote wires must be connected to the 7-pin connector before the connector is plugged into the board. 5.5.1. 2-Wire Remote Control (On-Off) This application assumes that only one heating function (pool or spa) is required. 1. Turn on power to the heater. 2. For a 2-Wire Remote Control from a remote without its own sensor, push the MENU/SET button to the “POOL” or “SPA” mode and set the desired setpoint (eg. 102 °F (39°C) for Spa). 3.

On P-106 heaters, splice into the red/white wire to connect the time clock. For P-156 heaters the fireman’s switch connection is located on the 14-pin header connected to the digital control board. Splice into the red wire jumper tagged “Where necessary add “Fireman’s” switch circuit here” to connect the time clock. The fireman’s switch connection on both heaters must be a dry contact and must not supply power to the heater.

7. MAINTENANCE The following preventative maintenance is to be performed one month after start-up and semi-annually thereafter. 1. Inspect top of heater and drafthood for soot, a sticky black substance around finned tubes and “V” baffles, and open flue gas passageways. Any visible soot should be cleaned for proper operation. See "De-sooting Procedure" on page 26. 2. Clean main burners and pilot burner of dust and lint. 3.

7.1.4. Flame Roll-Out Safety Switch 12. Reverse above procedure to reinstall. Heaters are equipped with a thermal cutoff device to prevent flame roll-out in the event the heat exchanger becomes blocked. This is a “single-use” type fusible link or thermal fuse, that must be replaced when disabled by an over-temperature condition, caused by excessive restriction in the heat exchanger flue passage, roll-out, high winds, etc. 7.1.5. High Limits The heater is equipped with two automatic high limits.

7.1.10. 1. Heat Exchanger Removal Shut water, gas and electricity off, close valves and relieve pressure, then remove relief valve. Remove side inspection panels. 2. Remove the (8) top jacket holding screws. Remove the jacket top. 3. Remove the screws holding down the flue collector. Remove the flue collector. 4. Remove upper in/out access panel. 5. Disconnect all electrical wiring from in/out header. 6. Remove temperature sensor from in/out header. 7. Disconnect flange nuts on In/Out header.
