WARNING
The following “Safety Rules for Hot Tubs,” recommended by the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission, should be observed when
using the spa. Consult heater operation and installation instructions
for water temperature guidelines before setting temperature.
• Spa or hot tub water temperature should never exceed 104°F
(40°C). One hundred degrees Fahrenheit (100°F [38°C]) is consid-
ered safe for a healthy adult. Special caution is recommended for
young children.
• The drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or
hot tub use can cause drowsiness which could lead to uncon-
sciousness, and subsequently result in drowning.
• Pregnant women take note! Soaking in water above 102°F
(38.5°C)cancausefetaldamageduringtherstthree(3)months
of pregnancy (which could result in the birth of a brain-damaged or
deformed child). If pregnant women are going to use a spa or hot
tub, they should make sure the water temperature is below 100°F
(38°C) maximum.
• The water temperature should always be checked with an ac-
curate thermometer before entering a spa or hot tub. Temperature
controls may vary by as much as 1F°/1C°.
• Persons with a medical history of heart disease, diabetes, cir-
culatory or blood pressure problems should consult their physician
before using a hot tub or spa.
• Persons taking any medication which induces drowsiness
(e.g., tranquilizers, antihistamines, or anticoagulants) should not
use spas or hot tubs.
• Prolonged immersion in hot water can induce hyperthermia.
• Hyperthermia occurs when the internal body temperature
reaches a level several degrees above the normal body tem-
perature of 98.6°F (37°C). Symptoms include dizziness, fainting,
drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal body tempera-
ture. The effects of hyperthermia include:
• Lack of awareness of impending hazard
• Failure to perceive heat
• Failure to recognize need to leave spa
• Physical inability to leave spa
• Fetal damage in pregnant women
• Unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning
2.4 General Operation Description
The blower draws air and fuel through specially designed
orices, delivering a precise mixture to the burner,
located inside the sealed combustion chamber. Water
ows through the heat exchanger, which surrounds
the burner transferring the heat to the water. Exhaust
gases are then directed through a duct where it is vented
to the atmosphere.
