Setup und Installation
The Raypak PR156AENC heater is designed for above-ground pools and spas. Proper installation is critical for safe and efficient operation. It is highly recommended that installation be performed by a qualified and certified technician.
Elektrische Anforderungen:
- The unit requires either 120V or 240V electrical supply. Consult the wiring diagram located inside the heater's control panel for specific connections.
- The power cord provided is approximately 3 feet long. If replacement is necessary, use a cable rated for 304 degrees.
Gasanschluss:
- This heater operates on natural gas. Ensure your gas supply matches the heater's requirements.
- If your gas system is a 2 PSI system, an external gas regulator is required to reduce the pressure to approximately 1/4 PSI for proper ignition and operation. Failure to do so may result in ignition issues.
