RECEIVING EQUIPMENT
On receipt of the equipment, visually check for exter-
nal damage to the carton or the shipping crate. If the
carton or shipping crate is damaged, make a note on
the Bill of Lading and report the damage to the Carrier
immediately. Remove the heater from the carton or
shipping crate. Do NOT use the shipping base crate as
an installation base.
On occasion, we ship some items loose. Be sure that
you receive the number of packages indicated on the
Bill of Lading. When ordering parts, you must specify
Model and Serial Number of heater. When ordering
under warranty conditions, you must also specify date
of installation.
Raypak recommends that this manual be reviewed
thoroughly before installing your Raypak Pool Heater.

GENERAL
SPECIFICATIONS
Models 962, 1125, 1223, 1336, 1468, 1631, 1826 &
2100 through 4001 are specifically designed for indoor
installation ONLY. Models 926, 1083, 1178, 1287,
1414, 1571 & 1758 are specifically designed for out-
door installation ONLY. All heaters are standard with
electronic ignition for both natural and propane appli-
cations. Heaters require 120V power supply. Control
circuits operate at 24V, supplied by an internal 120V to
24V transformer.
These heaters are design certified and tested under
the requirements of ANSI Z21.56 / CSA 4.7 American
National Standard for Gas-Fired Pool Heaters. Rated
inputs suitable for up to 2000 feet elevation. For eleva-
tions above 2000 feet, reduce input 4% for each 1000
feet above sea level, as high elevation reduces com-
bustion performance.
INSTALLATION
These instructions are intended for the use of qualified
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 according to these instructions.
Code Requirements
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 editions
of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54,
and National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Base Installation
Do NOT use the shipping base crate as an installation
base. Heater must be mounted on a level base, such
as cement slab, cement blocks or other non-com-
bustible surface. An optional non-combustible base is
available for Indoor Models 962 through 1826. An
alternative method for providing a base for com-
bustible floors as illustrated below. Heaters may not be
installed on carpeting.

WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment,
alteration, service or maintenance may damage the
equipment, create a hazard resulting in
asphyxiation, explosion or fire, and will void the
warranty.
