MiniMax NT ® LN Series
Pool and Spa Heaters
Congratulations on your purchase of a MiniMax NT LN high performance heating system. Proper installation
and service of your new heating system and correct chemical maintenance of the water will ensure years
enjoyment. The MiniMax NT LN is a compact, lightweight, efficient, induced-draft, gas fired high performance
pool and spa heater that can be directly connected to schedule 40 PVC pipe. The MiniMax NT LN also comes
equipped with the Pentair multifunction temperature controller which shows, at a glance, the proper functioning
of the heater. All MiniMax NT LN heaters are designed with a direct ignition device, HSI (hot-surface ignition),
which eliminates the need for a standing pilot. The MiniMax NT LN requires an external power source
(120/240 VAC 60 Hz) to operate.
This instruction manual provides operating instructions, installation and service information for the
MiniMax NT LN high performance heater. The information in this manual applies to all MiniMax NT LN
models. It is very important that the owner/installer read and understand the section covering installation
instructions, and recognize the local and state codes before installing the MiniMax NT LN. History and
experience has shown that most heater damage is caused by improper installation practices.
