TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
The new Raypak series RP2100 pool heaters have been designed to eliminate
the need for conventional heat sinks (high temperature piping). The initial
connection to the heater is made with a 2" PVC union adapter to which PVC
may then be connected with appropriate cement.
This newly authorized piping arrangement is described in the installation
manual provided by Raypak, and has been successfully tested by Raypak to
assure its acceptability.

AFTER START-UP
Feel the inlet and outlet pipes. Outlet pipe should be
only slightly warmer than the inlet. It should not be hot.
WARNING: Should overheating occur or the gas
supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control to
the appliance.
VISUAL INSPECTION
With the heater on, remove the door and make a
visual check of the pilot and burner.
The flame should be blue with a well-defined
pattern.
4" MAX
Fig. # 8205.2
MAIN BURNER FLAME
Fig. # 8964.1
PILOT BURNER FLAME
A yellow or "floating" flame indicates restricted air
openings or incorrect orifice size. Should this occur,
shut the heater off and contact your installer or gas
supplier.
WATER PRESSURE SWITCH
A water pressure switch is provided in the heater to
shut off the burners in the event that water supply to the
heater is interrupted. It is very important to verify that
the switch electrically opens and shuts off the gas valve
when water flow to the heater is interrupted. Otherwise,
rapid and severe damage will likely occur to the heater.
(The water pressure switch should be checked and
adjusted for proper operation by a qualified service
person at the time of installation and periodically
checked thereafter. Refer to pressure switch servicing
instruction in Section 4 of this manual).
WARNING: Operation of the heater without water circu-
lation will cause rapid and severe damage to the heater.
SECTION 2/CAUTION
Elevated water temperature can be hazardous, and
the U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission rec-
ommends the following guidelines:
1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never
exceed 104°F (40°C). A temperature of 100°F (38°C)
is considered safe for a healthy adult. Special
caution is suggested for young children.
2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa
or hot tub use can cause drowsiness which could
lead to unconsciousness and subsequently result in
drowning.
3. Pregnant Women Beware! Soaking in water over
102°F (39°C) can cause fetal damage during the first
three months of pregnancy resulting in the birth of a
brain-damaged or deformed child. Pregnant women
should stick to the 100°F (38°C) maximum rule.
4. Before entering the spa or hot tub, users should
check the water temperature with an accurate ther-
mometer; spa or hot tub thermostats may err in
regulating water temperatures by as much as 4°F
(2.2°C).
5. Persons with a medical history of heart disease,
circulatory problems, diabetes, or blood pressure
problems should obtain a physician's advice before
using pools or hot tubs.
6. Persons taking medications which induce drowsi-
ness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines, or anti-
coagulant, should not use spas or hot tubs.
SECTION 3/MAINTENANCE AND
CARE PROCEDURES
To be followed one month after start-up and then
semi-annually.
1. Inspect top of heater and drafthood for soot, a sticky
black substance around finned tubes and "V"
baffles), and open flue gas passage ways. Any visible
soot should be cleaned for proper operation.
CAUTION: Soot may be combustible. Wet sooted
surfaces completely prior to cleaning. Do not use steel
wire brush.
2. Clean main burners and pilot burner of dust and lint.
3. Inspect and operate all controls, gas valve and
pressure relief valve.
7
4. Make visual check of the burner and pilot flame.
Flame pattern on the main burner and pilot is indi-
cated in the previous illustration. Yellow flame
means restriction of the air openings. Lifting or
blowing flame indicates high gas pressure. Low
flame means low gas pressure. Should this occur,
shut the heater off and contact your gas supplier or
qualified service agency.
5. On indoor heaters, clean room intake openings to
assure adequate flow of combustion and ventilation
air.
CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated by
corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heater
and void the warranty.
6. Keep area around heater clear and free from combus-
tible materials, gasoline and other flammable and
corrosive vapors and liquids.
BASIC TIPS IF HEATER WILL NOT FIRE:
1. If you have no electrical power; it may be your "circuit
breakers" have tripped. Try re-setting them.
2 If you have electrical power but the heater will not fire
check the following:
3. The time clock must be moved to the "ON" position.
4. Your pump strainer basket may be full. If so remove
debris.
5. Your filter may be dirty. If so, backwash or clean
filter. (To tell if your filter is dirty, look to see if the
filter pressure will be higher than usual).
6. The pump may have lost it's prime. It may be run-
ning dry, check the pressure on the filter. If there is
no pressure; then you are not moving water (or your
gauge is broken). Try to get the pump to run at it's
normal flow rate.
POOL & SPA WATER CHEMISTRY
Chemical imbalance can cause severe damage to
your heater and associated equipment. Maintain your
water pH between 7.4 and 7.8 and total alkalinity between
100 and 150 p.p.m. If the mineral content and dissolved
solids in the water become too high, scale forms inside
the heat exchanger tubes, reducing heater efficiency and
also damaging the heater. If the pH drops below 7.2, the
heater will be severely damaged. This will result in
corrosion of the heat exchanger. Heat exchanger
damage resulting from chemical imbalance is not
covered by the warranty.
AUTOMATIC CHLORINATORS AND CHEMICAL FEED-
ERS
All chemicals must be introduced and completely
diluted into the pool or spa water before being circulated
through the heater. Do not place chlorine tablets or
bromine sticks in the skimmer. High chemical concen-
trations will result when the pump is not running (i.e.
overnight).
Chlorinators must feed downstream of the heater and
have an anti-siphoning device to prevent chemical back-
up into the heater when the pump is shut off.
NOTE: High chemical concentrates from feeders and
chlorinators that are out of adjustment will cause very
rapid corrosion to the heat exchanger. Such damage is
not covered under the warranty.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
MODERATE CLIMATE: Heater operation can continue
during short term cold spells. When temperatures are
below freezing, flow (continuous pump operation) must
be maintained.
CAUTION: Do not use the heater to maintain water
temperatures just above freezing or for freeze protection.
When heater is used during freezing weather, care must
be taken to avoid freeze ups. Continuous pump opera-
tion is a must. Additional protection may be required.
The heater is not warranted against freeze ups.
COLD CLIMATE: Prolonged operation with water tem-
peratures below 50°F is not recommended. When
starting the heater with pool temperatures below 50°F
operate the heater continuously until higher tempera-
tures are reached. Operating the heater for prolonged
periods with pool water below 50°F can seriously damage
the heater, and is not covered by the warranty.
For cold climate areas, please follow the winterizing
procedures listed.
8
WINTERIZING THE POOL & SPA HEATER
When heaters installed outdoors in freezing climate
areas are to be shut down for the winter, observe the
following step-by-step procedure:
1. Turn off gas valve, manual gas valve, and
electrical supply to the heater.
2. Open drain plug located on the inlet/outlet
header, (under water pipes). Remove the heat
exchanger inspection panel on the side op-
posite water piping to gain access to the drain
plug on the return header. Open drain plug on
return header.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
These instructions are intended for the use of quali-
fied personnel only, specifically trained and experienced
in the installation of this type of heating equipment and
related system components. Installation and service
personnel may be required by some states to be licensed.
If your state is such, be sure your contractor bears the
appropriate license. Persons not qualified shall not
attempt to fix this equipment nor attempt repairs accord-
ing to these instructions.
WARNING:
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, ser-
vice or maintenance may damage the equipment,
create a hazard resulting in asphyxiation, explosion or
fire, and will void the warranty.
CODE REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: The heater should not be located in an area
where possible water leakage will result in damage to
the area adjacent to the appliance or to the structure.
When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recom-
mended that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained,
be installed under the appliance. The pan must not
restrict combustion air flow.
Installation must be in accordance with local codes,
or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition
of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 and National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, and for Canada, the
latest edition of CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2, and
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 Part 1 and Part
2.
BASE INSTALLATION
Heater must be mounted on a level base, such as
cement slab, cement blocks or other non-combustible
surface. An optional non-combustible base is available
for all models. An alternative method for providing a base
for combustible floors is illustrated below. Heaters must
not be installed on carpeting.
Fig. # 8148.1
Utilize hollow concrete cinder blocks, align holes and
leave ends open.
CLEARANCES
ALL HEATERS
For clearances from combustible surfaces, see the
chart below.
CLEARANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION
INDOOR INSTALLATIONS:
Top*(Drafthood) - 30" Back - 6"
Front - Alcove Right Side-(Water Side) 12"
Vent - 6" Left Side-(Opposite Water
side) 6"
OUTDOOR INSTALLATION:
Top* (Stackless top or outdoor stack) - Unobstructed
Back - 6"
Side - 6"
*Clearance from top of vent terminal.
When installed according to the listed minimum
clearances from combustible construction materials, the
Raypak pool heaters can still be serviced without remov-
ing permanent structural construction around the heater.
However for ease of servicing, we recommend a
clearance of at least 24" in the front, and at least 18" on
the water connection side. This will enable the heater to
be serviced in its installed location, that is, without
movement or removal of the heater.
Clearances less than these (6" minimum), may
require removal of the heater to service either the heat
exchanger or the burner tray. In either case, the heater
must be installed in a manner that will enable the heater
to be serviced without removing any structure around the
heater.
OUTDOOR HEATERS
These heaters are design certified for outdoor
installation, when equipped with the approved tops des-
ignated for outdoor use.
WARNING: The heater shall not be located in an area
where water sprinklers, or other devices, may cause
water to spray through the cabinet louvers and into the
heater. This could cause internal rusting or damage
some electrical components, and this would void the
warranty.
WARNING: Do not install within 3 feet of a heat pump or
an outdoor condensing unit. Strong air intake from these
equipment can disturb the combustion process and
cause damage or personal injury.
Heaters must not be installed under an overhang of less than three (3) feet from the top of the heater. Three
(3) sides must be open in the area under the overhang. Roof water drainage must be diverted away from the
heaters installed under overhangs with the use of gutters.
For U.S. installations,the point from where the flue products exit the heater must be a minimum of four (4) feet
below, four (4) feet horizontally from, or one (1) foot above any door, window or gravity inlet into any building. The
top surface of the heater shall be at least three (3) feet above any forced air inlet, or intake ducts located within ten
(10) feet horizontally.
For installations in Canada, pool heaters shall not be installed with the top of the vent assembly within 10 feet
below, or to either side, of any opening into the building. Refer to the latest revisions of CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2.

COMBUSTION AIR (Indoor Units Only)
Air For Combustion And Ventilation
(Indoor Units Only)
The heater must have both combustion and ventila-
tion air. Minimum requirements for net free air supply
openings, one 12 inches from ceiling for ventilation and
one 12 inches from the floor for combustion air as
outlined in the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z2231(Canada-CAN/CGA-B149.1 and
B149.2) and any local codes that may have jurisdiction.
CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated
by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the
heater and void the warranty.
*Designation for Propane is "EP", Natural gas is "EN". Prefix "C" is for Cast Iron (ASME) Headers; "P" is for Plastic (Capron)
Headers. Above input ratings are per A.G.A. specifications. Reduce input 4% for each 1000 ft. above sea level when installed above
2000 ft. elevation. For Canada, no de-rate is required for elevations up to 4500 feet. Manufactured under Patent No. 3,623,458.
Note: Plastic (Capron) Headers cannot be used for ASME installations.
VENT PIPING
WARNING:
Indoor boilers require a drafthood that must be
connected to a vent pipe and properly vented to the
outside. Failure to follow this procedure can cause fire
or fatal carbon monoxide poisoning.
Vent piping the same size as the draft hood outlet is
recommended, however, when the total vent height is at
least ten (10) feet (draft hood relief opening to vent
terminal), the vent pipe size may be reduced as speci-
fied in Chapter 10 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z 223.1. (Canada-CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2) As
much as possible avoid long horizontal runs of vent pipe
and too many elbows. If installation requires horizontal
non-vertical runs, the vent pipe must have a minimum of
1/4 inch per foot rise and should be supported at not less
than five foot intervals. Plumbers tape, criss-crossed, will
serve to space both horizontal and vertical piping. Gas
vents supported only by the flashing and extending above
the roof more than five feet should be securely guyed or
braced to withstand snow and wind loads. We recom-
mend use of insulated vent pipe spacer through the roofs
and walls. Another option for installation that requires
horizontal runs is using the D-2 powervent kit option. The
powervent is certified for catagory III venting up to 40 ft.
equivalent 4" diameter venting.
For protection against rain or blockage by snow, the
vent pipe must terminate with a vent cap which complies
with the local codes or, in the absence of such codes, to
the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1. (Canada-CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2)
The discharge opening must be a minimum of two feet
vertically from the roof surface and at least two feet
higher than any part of the building within ten feet. Vent
stack shall be at least five feet in vertical height above
the drafthood outlet. The vent cap location shall have a
minimum clearance of 4 feet horizontally from, and in no
case below, unless a 4-foot horizontal distance is main-
tained, from electric meters, gas meters regulators and
relief equipment.
The weight of the vent stack or chimney must not
rest on heater draft hood. Support must be provided in
compliance with applicable codes. The heater top and
draft hood must be readily removable for maintenance
and inspection. Vent pipe should be adequately sup-
ported to maintain proper clearances from combustible
construction.
Type "B" double wall or equivalent vent pipe is
recommended. However single wall metal vent pipe
may be used as specified in the latest edition of the
National Flue Gas Code ANSI Z 223.1. (Canada-CAN/
CGA-B149.1 and B149.2)
Fig. #RP 8119.2
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
Gas piping must have a sediment trap ahead of the
heater gas controls, and a manual shut-off valve located
outside the heater jacket. All gas piping should be
tested after installation in accordance with local codes.

CAUTION: The heater and its manual shut off valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 KPA). Dissipate test pressure
in the gas supply line before reconnecting the heater
and its manual shut off valve to gas supply line. FAIL-
URE TO FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE MAY DAMAGE
THE GAS VALVE. OVER PRESSURED GAS VALVES
ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. The heater and
its gas connections shall be leak tested before placing
the appliance in operation. Use soapy water for leak
test. DO NOT use open flame.

Fig. # 8149
NOTE: Do not use teflon tape on gas line pipe thread. A
flexible sealant is recommended.
A minimum of 7" W.C. and a maximum of 14" W.C.
upstream pressure under load, and no load conditions
must be provided for natural gas or a minimum of 12"
W.C. and a maximum of 14" for propane gas.
GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator is preset at 4" W. C. for
natural gas, and 11" W. C. for propane gas. The pressure
at the gas valve, taken with a manometer, should be about
3.7" W. C. natural gas (3.9" W.C. for Low NOx) and 10.5"
W. C. propane gas. If an adjustment is needed, remove
seal and turn adjustment screw clockwise to
increase pressure or counter-clockwise to
decrease pressure.
PIPE SIZING FOR GAS CONNECTIONS
Low NOx units are not available in propane.
PLUMBING FOR WATER CONNECTIONS
LOCATION
The RP 2100 heater requires water flow and positive
pressure to fire and operate properly. It must therefore
be installed downstream of the discharge side of the filter
pump. A typical installation is plumbed as follows:
1. The inlet side of the filter is plumbed directly to the
discharge side of the filter pump;
2. The outlet side of the filter is then plumbed to the inlet
of the heater; and
3. The outlet of the heater is plumbed to the return line
to the pool or spa. The pump, filter and heater are
thus plumbed in series.

UNITHERM GOVERNOR OPERATION
The patented Unitherm Governor is a thermostatic
mixing valve specifically designed to maintain constant
heater internal temperature between 105° to 115°F
despite continually changing flow rates from the filter
and changing pool temperatures. This narrow range is
needed to prevent damaging condensation on the burn-
ers which will occur if the heater runs for any length of
time below 100°F. It is also needed to inhibit scale
formation in the tubes by maintaining temperatures
well below accelerated scaling temperatures.
16
INTERNAL AUTOMATIC BY-PASS VALVE
In addition to the Unitherm Governor, a built-in
automatic by-pass valve is provided in the in/out
header. While the Unitherm Governor responds to the
changes in water temperature in the heater, the internal
by-pass valve automatically responds to changes in
water pressure in the piping system. Proper amount of
water flow is maintained through the heater under
varying pressures dictated by the conditions of the
pump and filter.
Fig.#2003
EXTERNAL AUXILIARY BYPASS VALVE
(Where Required)
An auxiliary bypass valve should be used when flow
rates exceed 125 GPM (usually a high performance
pump size larger than two horsepower will exceed this
flow rate). This valve is required to complement the
function of the automatic bypass valve, particularly
when starting the heater in winter or early spring when
the spa or pool temperature is down below 50°F. It also
serves to eliminate needless pressure drop through the
heater and accompanying reduction in the flow rate to
the spa jets, etc.

AUXILIARY BYPASS VALVE ADJUSTMENT
To set bypass: With clean filter, adjustment is made
by feeling the inlet and outlet pipes at the heater. Outlet
pipes should be slightly warmer than inlet and comfort-
able to the touch. If pipe is hot, close bypass; if cold,
open bypass.
Plumbing from the heater back to the pool must not have
any valves or restriction that could prevent flow when the
pump is operating.
CAUTION: A source of additional heated water, i.e. solar
systems, must be connected to the heater outlet pipe. If
this is connected to the heater inlet, incorrect pool water
temperature readings will be displayed on the heater
control panel.

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE INSTALLATION
To conform to local building codes, it may be
necessary to install a pressure relief valve. A 3/4"
pressure relief valve having a capacity equal to BTU/HR
output of the model to be installed is recommended for
this appliance. The maximum acceptable pressure re-
lief valve setting is 125 psi.
A 3/4" NPT connection is provided in the inlet/outlet
header for installation of a pressure relief valve. The
valve shall be installed in a vertical position. Do not over
tighten. Install pressure relief valve hand tight plus 1/2
turn.

NOTE: To avoid water damage or scalding due to valve
operation, drain pipe must be connected to valve outlet
and run to a safe place of discharge. Drain pipe must be
the same size as the valve discharge connection
throughout its entire length and must pitch downward
from the valve. No shutoff valve shall be installed
between the relief valve and the drain line. Valve lever
should be tripped at least once a year to ensure that
waterways are clear.

The Raypak RP 2100 Digital Heater is remote ready in
most cases. The digital liquid crystal (LCD) display
shows the actual pool temperature, operating status,
and service codes (See examples below). The touch
pad on the control panel allows you to select the desired
pool or spa temperature. It also indicates when a remote
system is controlling the heater by displaying REM in
the display. When connecting the RP2100 Digital to a
remote system, identify whether it is a two or three wire
remote system. Select the appropriate instruction listed
below to properly install the remote to the heater.
Important Installation Notes for
Remote or external wiring configuration
Remote wiring must be run in separate conduit.
Remote wiring must not be run parallel to High Voltage
lines.
For runs of under 30 feet, remote wiring should have
stranded conductors with a minimum of 22 AWG,
600V, cable twisting 1.5 to 2.5 and jacketed.
For runs over 30 feet, the conductors should be a
minimum of 20 AWG, 600V, cable twisting 1.5 to 2.5
inch lay that is shielded and jacketed.
Maximum cable length of 200 feet.
For both Two and Three wire remote systems, the
provided P-7 wiring connector must be utilized. Please
refer to the wiring instructions.
Two-Wire Remote Systems:
To remotely select either pool or spa operation (3-wire/2-
function) requires 3 wires to be connected to the heater.
A switch mechanism that will provide contact closure
between HIGH/SPA or LOW/POOL and common, needs
to be supplied. This mechanism can be a 3-way switch
or any other remote control system that provides dry
contact closure for either setting. See remote wiring
instructions on this page.
Two or Three-Wire Remote Operation:
To remotely select a single operating ON/OFF mode (2
wire/single function) requires two wires to be connected
to the heater. This requires a switching mechanism that
can be a 2-way switch or a remote control system with a
single dry contact closure. See remote wiring instruc-
tions on this page.
NOTE: Do Not connect wiring to fireman switch
location.

PRESSURE SWITCH
The pressure switch, or heater actuator, insures
that the heater operates only when the filter pump is in
operation. It is located on the inlet/outlet header. It is
factory set at 1.75 PSI for deck level installations.
When the heater is located below the level of the spa or
pool, it may be necessary to reset the pressure switch
to compensate for the no-flow static head. If it is
necessary to reset the pressure switch, utilize the
following procedure:
PRESSURE SWITCH ADJUSTMENT:
1. With pump and heater on, turn adjustment
knob (clockwise) until a click is heard from
the gas valve.
2. Turn adjustment knob (counter clockwise)
1/4 turn.
3. Turn pump off and on several times. Heater
should shut off immediately. If it does not,
repeat steps above until proper adjustments
made.

NOTE: If heater is installed outside of the limits shown,
a flow switch mounted and wired adjacent to the heater
must be used in place of the pressure switch.
TWO SPEED PUMPS
In some cases, the flow on the low speed is
insufficient to operate the heater. This is apparent when
the pressure switch cannot be further adjusted or if the
heater makes banging noises or goes off on high limit.
In these cases, the pump must be run at high speed
when heating the water.
CAUTION: Do not operate the heater without the func-
tion of a properly adjusted pressure switch or flow
switch.

FLAME ROLL-OUT SAFETY SWITCH
The heater is 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 dis-
abled by an over temperature condition, caused by
excessive restriction in the heat exchanger flue pas-
sage.
Fig. #9177
HIGH LIMITS
The heater is equipped with two automatic high
limits. Both are located in the inlet/outlet header. Both
are set to open at 135°F.
NOTE: An erratic high limit is often characteristic of
internal heat exchanger problem, i.e. scale buildup,
defective bypass. Refer to troubleshooting sections.
Fig. # 2009
HIGH LIMIT REMOVAL
1. Shut off main electrical power switch to heater.
2. Remove inlet/outlet inspection panel.
3. Remove defective high limit and replace with a new
high limit.
4. Replace inspection panel.
PILOT SAFETY (Millivolt)
The heaters equipped with the standing pilot (milli-
volt system), have pilot generators which act as a safety
device to shut off the flow of gas to the main burners and
the pilot burner in case the pilot flame is extinguished.
The pilot burner must be manually relighted to place the
heater in operation again. Refer to the lighting instruc-
tions provided on the heater label.
PILOT SAFETY (Electronic)
The heater employs a pilot safety which closes the
main gas valve within 8/10ths of a second whenever the
pilot flame is interrupted. Pilot flame is automatically lit
when the device is powered. Unit performs its own
safety check and opens the main valve only after the
pilot is proven to be lit.

TUBE CLEANING PROCEDURE
Establish a regular inspection schedule, frequency
depending on local water condition and severity of
service. Do not let the tubes clog up solidly. Clean out
deposits over 1/16" in thickness.
The heater may be cleaned from the return header
side, without breaking pipe connections. It is prefer-
able, however, to remove both headers for better visibil-
ity through the tubes and to be sure the ground-up lime
dust does not get into the system.
Note that you do not remove the top panel or the
heater exchanger, generally.
After reaming, mount the wire brush in place of the
auger and clean out debris remaining in the tubes.
Another method is to remove the heat exchanger,
ream tubes and immerse heat exchanger in non-inhib-
ited de-scale solvent for severe scale build-up.
DESOOTING PROCEDURE
CAUTION: SOOT IS COMBUSTIBLE. EXERCISE
EXTREME CARE:
Soot will clog areas between fins and cause even-
tual tube failure. Any sign of soot at the base of the
burners or around the outer jacket indicates a need for
cleaning.
1. Remove top and flue collector from cabinet.
2. Remove "V" baffles from heat exchanger.
3. Remove burner drawer. (See burner tray removal).
4. Remove heat exchanger from the heater and wash
with a garden hose, making sure soot is removed
from spaces between fins.
5. Reverse above procedure to re-install.
NOTE: In extreme cases it may be necessary to do
steam cleaning at the local car wash. DO NOT
WIREBRUSH.
COMBUSTION CHAMBER REMOVAL
To remove combustion chamber, you must first
have removed the heat exchanger. Unbolt metal com-
bustion chamber retainer from top and remove combus-
tion chamber panels individually.

The Raypak Low Nox Pool Heaters are certified and
tested under the ANSI Z21.56.CSA 4.7 Standards for gas
fired pool heaters.
The heater should be installed to meet all local codes, the
latest editions of the National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1 and
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
OPERATION
On call for heat, the ignition system, consisting of an
electronic spark module, gas pilot system is energized.
Providing pilot is proven blower will start running, the
main gas valve will open and the heater will operate.
When the operating control is satisfied the heater will
shut down.
START-UP PROCEDURES (S8610B)
1.Turn on power to the heater with gas supply off.
2.Check ignition module as follows:
a. Set the thermostat or controller to call for heat.
b. Watch for continuous spark at the pilot burner.
c. Check the ignition spark operation. Time must be
within the lockout timing period (15 or 90 seconds).
d. Turn control down to end call for heat and wait 60
seconds on lockout models before beginning step
3.
3.Turn on gas supply.
4.Set controller to call for heat.

FLAME ROLL-OUT SAFETY SWITCH
The heater is equipped with a cutoff device to prevent
flame roll-out in the event the heat exchanger becomes
blocked. This is a "manual reset" type roll-out switch that
must be reset by a service technician after any over
temperature conditions have been fixed. Excessive
restriction in the heat exchanger flue passage may cause
the switch to disable the heater.
BURNER ADJUSTMENT
This burner assembly does not require any primary air
adjustments.
VISUAL INSPECTION
Flame can be observed through the slot opening above
the plenum. Flame color is blue and evenly spread on the
top surface of the burner. At least every three months a
visual inspection should be made of the burners. In case
flame lifting is observed on the burner, check gas pres-
sure on manifold. Gas pressure in manifold should be
3.9" W.C.
ELECTRICAL
Be sure that electrical service to the boiler has proper
overload fuse or circuit breaker protection, wire size and
connections which comply with all applicable codes.
