heaters must be positioned to prevent children from using them as a means of access to the pool.
CAUTION – This heater is intended for use on permanently installed swimming pools and may also
be used with spas. Do NOT use with storable pools. A permanently installed pool is constructed in or
on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is
constructed so that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original
integrity.
Though this product is designed for outdoor use, it is strongly recommended to protect the electrical

circulation of air for cooling. Do not install in a damp or non-ventilated location.
WARNING – It is required that licensed electricians do all electrical wiring. Risk of
Electric Shock. Hazardous voltage can shock, burn, cause death or serious property
damage. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use an extension cord to connect
unit to electric supply. Provide a properly located outlet. All electrical wiring MUST be
in conformance with applicable local and national codes and regulations. Before work-
ing on this unit, turn off power supply to the heater.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of electric shock replace damaged wiring immediately. Locate conduit
to prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other equipment.
WARNING – Failure to bond to pool structure will increase risk for electrocution and could result in
injury or death. To reduce the risk of electric shock, the electrician must comply with installation in-
structions and must bond the heater accordingly. In addition, the licensed electrician must also conform
to local electrical codes for bonding requirements.

entrapment hazards:
Hair Entrapment- Hair can become entangled in suction outlets.
Limb Entrapment- A limb inserted into an opening of a suction outlet or suction outlet
cover that is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached can result in a
mechanical bind or swelling of the limb.
Body Suction Entrapment- A differential pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can
result in an entrapment.
Evisceration/ Disembowelment - A vacuum applied directly to the intestines through an unprotected
suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover which is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or unsecured
can result in evisceration (disembowelment).

Maximum Installation Altitude
* All indoor installations at altitudes above 2,000 ft also require a special vent pressure switch to be installed in addition to the blower air inlet plate.
The special vent pressure switch is included with the appropriate indoor vent kit (UHXNEGVT1xxx or UHXPOSHZ1xxx), or the high-altitude vent
pressure switch kit FDXLVPS1931.

1. The heater is self-venting when installed outdoors and does not require additional vent piping.
2. Do not install in a location where growing shrubs may in time obstruct a heaters combustion air
and venting areas.
3. Do not install this appliance under an overhang less than (3) feet from the top of the appliance.
The area under the overhang must be open on (3) sides.
4. Do not install the heater where water spray from ground sprinkler can contact the heater. The wa-

To remove the shipping carton from the heater:
1. Remove the corrugated carton from the
heater. The carton, top pad, bottom pad, and
the four corner posts can be recycled.
2. There are three (3) screws total used to se-
cure the heater to the wood pallet. All three
must be removed to separate the heater from
the pallet. One (1) is located in the lower
rear of the heater as shown in Figure 1.
3. To access the other two (2) screws, open the
front access panel by removing the four (4)
black phillips-head screws. Then remove
the two (2) screws which hold the
heater base pan to the pallet as
shown in Figure 2.
4. Lift the heater clear of the corrugat-
ed bottom pad and off of the pallet.
ATTENTION: Do not drop the
heater from a pickup truck tailgate
to the ground. This may damage the
heater.
Remove the (2)
shipping screws
and discard bottom
corrugated tray.

This heater is designed so that it can be installed
with the water connections located on either the right
or left side. Heaters are factory-shipped with right-side
water connections. To move the connections to the left
side follow the instructions below. A trained service
technician should perform these steps before the heater
is installed.
1. Before beginning, be aware that it is not necessary to remove the water header from the heat exchang-

water outlet will be located at the FRONT.
2. Remove screws and remove both of the upper plastic heater side panels (see Figures 11 and 12). Note
the wires that pass through a hole in the heater side panel go through a split-bushing, which will allow
separation of the wires from the panel without disconnecting them.
3. Disconnect the 2 wires connecting the heater wire harness to the heat exchanger header. One is lo-
cated on the water pressure switch and one is located on the temperature limit switch, both on the top
of the header. Pull these wires into the heater cabinet from the hole in the right-hand metal side panel
in the heater, and re-route them out through the left-hand metal side panel in the heater.
4. Remove countersunk screws on the heater top and remove louvered exhaust panel on heater top (see
Figure 12).

6. Remove screws and remove rain shield assembly (see Figure 12). Note that there are screws which
hold the rain shield assembly to the heat exchanger tube sheets, which also must be removed.
7. Remove the front access panel (see Figure 12).
8. Disconnect water temperature sensor plug from the ignition control board located inside the heater
