8.2.3 Spring Start-up
To restart the heater in the Spring, have a
professional service technician reassemble the heater
as follows:
1.
Fill the siphon loop with approximately 5cc of
SAE 50, non-detergent oil. Attach the copper
tubing to the pressure switch (see Figure 22).
2.
Tighten the drain plugs.
3.
Make sure that power is supplied to the heater
controller and the pump. Turn on the filter pump
by pressing the PUMP key and circulate water
through the heater for 5 minutes. Check for
leaks while circulating.
4.
Turn on the main gas supply valve to the heater,
outside the heater jacket.
5.
Turn on the heater following the lighting instruc-
tions found on the inside of the heater, or page
23 of this manual.
8.3 Inspection and Service
Water Pik Technologies designs and constructs
the Lite2 heater to provide long performance life
when installed and operated properly under normal
conditions. Periodic inspections, especially at spring
start-up, are important to keep your heater running
safely and efficiently through the years. Improper
maintenance can result in conditions where nausea or
asphyxiation from carbon monoxide or flue gases
could cause severe injury, property damage or death.
WARNING
Improper installation or maintenance can
cause nausea or asphyxiation from carbon
monoxide in flue gases which could result in
severe injury, or death.
8.3.1 Owner Inspection
Water Pik Technologies recommends that you
inspect the heater on a continual basis and especially
after abnormal weather conditions. The following basic
guidelines are suggested for your inspection:
1.
Keep the top and surrounding area of the heater
clear of all debris.
2.
Keep the area around and beneath the heater
clean and free of all combustible materials such as
paper, leaves, etc.
3.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors, liquids or chemicals in the vicinity of this
or any other appliance.
Ne pas entreposer ni utiliser d'essence ni d'autres
vapeurs ou liquides inflammables à proximité de
cet appareil ou de tout autre appareil.
4.
Do not use the heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified professional
technician to inspect the heater and replace any
part of the control system which has been sub-
merged.
N'utilisez pas cet appareil s'il a été plongé dans
l'eau, même partiellement. Faites inspecter
l'appareil par un technicien qualifié et remplacez
toute partie du système de contrôle et toute
commande qui ont été plongés dans l'eau.
5.
If the heater is equipped with a pressure relief
valve, check for corrosion in and around the valve.
Twice a year, with the filter pump on, lift the
release lever on the top of the valve to make sure
that water runs freely through it. If corrosion is
found, replace the pressure relief valve. When
replacing the valve, be sure that the pump is off.
Install the valve so that the discharge is directed
away from any area that may be damaged by
water.
5.
Be sure all combustion air and ventilation openings
are not blocked. Check for spider webs and other
debris inside the heater, in the vents on all sides of
the heater jacket and in the exhaust outlet
especially after a long period of nonuse.
8.3.2. Professional Inspection
Inspections performed at least once a year by a
qualified technician are required to maintain your
heaters safe and efficient operation. The following
basic safety checks must be performed.
1.
Check for loose or broken wires and terminal
connections.
2.
Verify pressure switch operation. Press the
SELECT key to turn the heater 'OFF'. Turn off
Figure 22. Pressure switch copper tubing.
