illustrated in Figure 10. Any conguration other than
as illustrated in Figure 10 can affect the operation of
the water pressure switch. Locating the heater above or
below the pool water surface can also affect operation of
the water pressure switch.
NOTE: When pool equipment is located below the pool surface,
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. is not responsible for any large scale
waterloss,oodingordamagecausedbyaleak.
CAUTION
The pool equipment must be protected from back-siphoning of wa-
