PART ONE - OWNER'S OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR SAFETY - READ BEFORE OPERATING WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT, CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. SECTION 1- START-UP PROCEDURES BEFORE START-UP BURNERS Clean main burners and air louvers of dust, lint and debris. Keep heater area clear and free from combustibles, flammable liquids and chemicals. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilating air.
CAUTION: Propane gas is heavier than air and will settle on the ground. Since propane can accumulate in confined areas, extra care should be exercised when lighting propane heaters. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS AND SHUT-OFF PROCEDURES MANUALLY LIGHTED PILOTS ( MILLIVOLT SYSTEM) A. This appliance has a pilot that must be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly. *If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department. C.
CAUTION: Propane gas is heavier than air and will settle on the ground. Since propane can accumulate in confined areas, extra care should be exercised when lighting propane heaters. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND SHUT-OFF PROCEDURES AUTOMATICALLY LIGHTED PILOTS (ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEMS) A. This appliance is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the pilot. Do not try to light the pilot by hand. *If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department. C.
AFTER START-UP SECTION 2 / CAUTION Feel the inlet and outlet pipes. Outlet pipe should be only slightly warmer than the inlet. It should not be hot. Elevated water temperature can be hazardous, and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommends the following guidelines: WARNING: Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the appliance. 1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 104°F (40°C).
4. Make visual check of the burner and pilot flame. Flame pattern on the main burner and pilot is indicated 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.
PART 2 - INSTALLATION / SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS SECTION 1 RECEIVING EQUIPMENT SECTION 3 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS On receipt of your equipment it is suggested that you visually check for external damage to the carton. If the carton is damaged, a note should be made on the Bill of Lading when signing for equipment. Remove the heater from the carton and if it is damaged, report the damage to the carrier immediately. On occasion, we ship some items loose.
OUTDOOR HEATERS These heaters are designed certified by A.G.A. for outdoor installation, when equipped with the approved top designated for outdoor use. CLEARANCES ALL HEATERS For clearances from combustible surfaces, see chart below. 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.
HIGH WIND CONDITIONS (OUTDOOR UNITS ONLY) In areas where high winds are frequent, it may be necessary to locate the heater a minimum of 3' from high vertical walls, or install a wind break so the heater is not in direct wind current. In areas of daily high winds, it may be necessary to replace the outdoor stackless top with a stack adapter in combination with a wind resistant/weather proof outdoor stack. See illustration below. INDOOR HEATERS The design is certified by A.G.A.
VENTING CONNECTIONS OUTDOOR STACK W/ADAPTER VENT TERMINAL (Outdoor) STACKLESS TOP STEP STEP STEP 1: Remove the (4) screws which fasten jacket top to heater. 2: Lower outdoor top onto unit lining up slots in outdoor top with screw holes in jacket top. 3: Reinstall (4) screws to secure jacket top and outdoor top to unit. JACKET TOP MOUNTING SCREWS (8) OUTDOOR TOP Fig # 9256 VENT TERMINAL (Indoor) Locate and assemble as shown. Secure with screws supplied in envelope inside carton.
VENT PIPING 10' OR LESS VENT CAP WARNING: Indoor boilers require a draft hood 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.
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTIONS ROBERTSHAW MV 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. Gas Pressure Adjustment Manual Shut Off Valve Sediment Trap Fig. # 8156.1 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.
PLUMBING FOR WATER CONNECTIONS LOCATION The VERSA 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.
ELECTRICAL WIRING For 120 V input power to the unit, connect the black wire to the “L1” or hot leg of the power supply. Connect the white wire to the “L2” or neutral leg of the power supply. Attach the wire nut to the red wire. There should be no connection to the red wire for 120V operation. NOTE: If it is necessary to replace any of the original wiring, it must be replaced with 105 °C wire or its equivalent, except all black wire must be replaced with 150 °C wire or its equivalent.

SECTION 4 / SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL LOCATION OF CONTROLS HIGH LIMITS BYPASS VALVE MANUAL THERMOSTAT MANUAL SWITCH THERMAL FUSE TRANSFORMER PRESSURE SWITCH IGNITION CONTROL (IID) BURNERS & PILOT Fig# 9252 CONTROLS/ADJUSTMENTS/ REPLACEMENTS PRESSURE SWITCH The pressure switch, or heater actuator, insures that the heater operates only when the filter pump is in operation. It is factory set at 1.75 PSI for deck level installations.
HIGH LIMITS PRESSURE SWITCH ADJUSTMENT: The heater is equipped with two automatic high limits. Both are set to open at 135°F. 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 adjustment is made.
BURNER DRAWER REMOVAL 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Shut off main electrical power switch to heater. Shut off gas upstream of heater. Remove front door. Disconnect gas line from gas valve. Remove (2) screws that mount burner tray to unit. Disconnect wires that terminate at gas valve. Slide out burner tray. Reverse above procedure to reinstall. Pilot Pilot Air Opening GAS VALVE REMOVAL 1. Remove burner tray. (See burner tray removal procedure). 2. Disconnect pilot tubing from gas valve. 3.
Extension Pieces (2) Auger with Carbide Tip 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 preferable, however, to remove both headers for better visibility through the tubes and to be sure the ground-up lime dust does not get into the system.
