Keep all objects off the top of the heater, and

do not obstruct louvre openings in heater

sides. Blocking ventilation air flow may

damage the heater and void the warranty.

3B. Temperature Controls

The LX and LT heaters have temperature controls

that can be set to heat the pool and spa with independent

temperature settings. The controls display information to

indicate that the heater needs service, and diagnostic

information for the service person (see Figure 21). The

LX utilizes a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen to display

the information while the LT uses indicator lights. The LX

Temperature Control also displays pool/spa water

temperature and allows for precise temperature settings of

the heater.

The controls allow the heater to directly interface

with all Waterpik Technologies/Jandy remote control

units. The LX offers full remote control capabilities while

the LT controls offer limited remote control.

3B-1. Information Displayed

The Model LX displays information on a Liquid

Crystal Display (LCD) screen. The temperature control

displays the water temperature of the pool or spa as well as

the desired temperature (thermostat setting) in either

Fahrenheit or Celsius. When there is water flowing

through the heater (the filter pump is on), the water

temperature is displayed in the right-most of two bar

graphs in the center of the screen. This bar graph is

labeled as ‘Water Temperature’. The selected thermostatic

setting (either Pool or Spa) is displayed as a bar graph

directly to the left of the water temperature bar graph. This

bar graph is labeled as ‘Thermostat Setting’. Note that

when neither thermostat is selected (the heater is in off

mode) only the water temperature is displayed.

If there is no water flowing through the heater (the

filter pump is off), then only the thermostat setting for the

mode selected will be displayed.

The Model LT heater does not display water

temperatures or thermostatic settings.

When the heater is unable to operate due to a

problem, the temperature control will identify which limit

is not satisfied. The Model LX displays this information

on the left side of the LCD under the LAARS LX logo.

When the gas heater is firing, the LCD displays ‘Heating’

under the LAARS LX logo toward the center of the upper

portion of the screen.

The Model LT displays this information by lighting

a set of indicator lights located on the front of the control

panel.

On the upper right-hand portion of the LCD screen

on the Model LX is a selector arrow. Directly to the left of

the selector arrow are three positions. They are ‘POOL’,

‘OFF’, and ‘SPA’. This part of the display indicates the

mode of operation in which the heater is set.

The mode of operation of the Model LT is shown by

two indicator lights labeled "SPA" and "POOL"

Underneath the mode selector on the Model LX

display screen is a Backlight indicator. To turn the

backlight on, press the middle button to the right of the

screen, labeled "Backlight".
