WARNING
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
warns that elevated water temperature can be
hazardous. Consult heater operation and installation instructions for water temperature guidelines
before setting temperature.
AVERTISSEMENT
La U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission indique que des températures de l'eau
élevées peuvent être dangereuses. Voir la notice
d'installation et de fonctionnement pour le réglage
de la température.
1. Spa or hot tub water temperature should never
exceed 104°F (40°C). One hundred degrees
Fahrenheit (100°F [38°C]) is considered safe for
a healthy adult. Special caution is recommended
for young children.
2. The drinking of alcoholic beverages before or
during spa or hot tub use can cause drowsiness
which could lead to unconsciousness, and subsequently result in drowning.
3. Pregnant women take note! Soaking in water
above 102°F (38.5°C) can cause fetal damage
during the Þ rst three months of pregnancy (which
could result in the birth of a brain-damaged or
deformed child). If pregnant women are going
to use a spa or hot tub, they should make sure
the water temperature is below 100°F (38°C)
maximum.
4. The water temperature should always be checked
with an accurate thermometer before entering a
spa or hot tub. Temperature controls may vary by
as much as 1F° (1C°).
5. Persons with a medical history of heart disease,
diabetes, circulatory or blood pressure problems
should consult their physician before using a hot
tub or spa.
6. Persons taking any medication which induces
drowsiness (e.g., tranquilizers, antihistamines, or
anticoagulants) should not use spas or hot tubs.
7. Prolonged immersion in hot water can induce
hyperthermia.
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal body
temperature reaches a level several degrees above the
normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). Symptoms
include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and
an increase in the internal body temperature. The
effects of hyperthermia include:
• Lack of awareness of impending hazard
Page 6

• Failure to perceive heat
• Failure to recognize need to leave spa
• Physical inability to leave spa
• Fetal damage in pregnant women
• Unconsciousness resulting in a danger of
drowning
1.2.2 Swimming Pool Energy Saving
Tips
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc., offers the following
recommendations to help conserve fuel and minimize
the cost of operating your pool heater without
sacriÞ cing comfort.
1. The American Red Cross recommends a
maximum water temperature of 78°F (25°C).
Use an accurate pool thermometer. A difference
of 4F° (2°C) , between 78°F and 82°F (26°C and
28°C), will use as much as 40% more gas.
2. Carefully monitor the water temperature of your
pool in the summertime. You can reduce heater
usage due to warmer air temperatures.
3. Find the proper setting on the pool heater tem-
perature control and use the Set Point Lockout
feature to discourage further adjustments.
4. Set the pump time clock to start the pump no
earlier than 6:00 AM during the pool heating
season. This is the time when nightly heat loss
balances.
5. If the pool is only going to be used on weekends,
reduce the heater temperature control setting by
8 or 10 degrees during the week. Reset it to the
78°F (25°C) level a day or so before you plan to
use the pool.
6. During the winter or when on vacation for longer
than a week, shut down the heater by following
the shutdown instructions found on the inside of
the heater.
7. Where possible, shelter the pool from prevailing
winds with well-trimmed hedges or other land-
scaping, cabanas, or fencing.
8. Always use a pool cover when practical. Besides
providing a valuable safety feature, a pool cover
will reduce heat loss, conserve chemicals, and
reduce the load on Þ lter systems.
1.3 Warranty
The Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater is sold
with a limited factory warranty. Details are speciÞ ed
on the back cover of this manual.

terminate at least 4.0 ft (1.2 m) below, 4.0 ft (1.2 m)
horizontally from, or 1.0 ft (300 mm) above any door,
operable window, or gravity inlet into any building. In
Canada, the heater must be installed so that the exhaust
point of the heater is at least 10.0 feet (3.0 m) from any
building opening (see Figure 3).
WARNING
United States
Do not install the heater with the top of the vent
assembly within 4 feet (1.22 m) horizontally, 4 feet
(1.22 m) below or less than 1 ft (300 mm) above of
any opening into a building.
Canada
Do not install the heater with the top of the vent
assembly within 10 feet (3.05 m) of any opening
into a building.
AVERTISSEMENT
Lorsque vous installez l’appareil de chauffage, assurez-vous que l’ouverture d’aération se trouve à un
minimum de 10 pieds (3.05 m) de toute ouverture
d’un bâtiment.
The top surface of the heater must be at least
3 feet above any forced air inlet, or intake ducts
located within 10 feet horizontally.
If the heater is installed under an overhang,
there must be a minimum clearance of 5 feet (1.5 m)
above the top of the heater and the structure should not
overhang the heater more than 12 inches (0.30 m). The
area under the overhang must be open on three sides.
This prevents combustion gases from being diverted
into living areas through doors, windows, or gravity
inlets.
Ne pas installer ce chauffe-piscine sous une
saillie mesurant moins de 3 pi de hauteur. La partie
sous la saillie doit être ouverte sur 3 côtés.
If the heater is installed close to a structure,
protect it from rain water runoff with rain gutters on
the roof or other measures. Do not locate the heater
near irrigation sprinkler systems that could spray water
on it. Water from sprinklers may cause damage to
controls and electronic components.
Avoid locations where wind deß ection off nearby
structures might cause downdraft conditions. Where
downdraft conditions exist, locate the heater at least
3 feet (0.91 m) from vertical surfaces (e.g., nearby
buildings and walls).
In Florida, it is required that the heater be
securely fastened to the equipment pad. Use a size
1/4" x 1-1/2" long stainless steel Tapcon
®
type
concrete screws and washers at each of the four
tabs located at the base of the heater. Mounting
the appliance in this manner meets the applicable
requirements of the Florida Building Code.
Mounting screws are not provided with this
heater. After placing the heater on the equipment pad,
drill a hole in the concrete at each of the four tabs
on the feet of the heater. (The correct size drill bit
is usually provided with the concrete screws when
purchased). Place a screw in each of the holes and
fasten the heater to the equipment pad (see Figure 4).
Do not over-torque the screws.

2.3.5 Indoor and Outdoor Shelter
Installations
An outdoor shelter (Canada only) is an
unoccupied enclosure which does not communicate
directly with occupied areas. All indoor installations
and outdoor shelter installations require a factory
approved draft hood. The draft hood must be installed
without modiÞ cation and in accordance with the
instructions provided by the manufacturer.

Une remise extérieure (au Canada seulement)
est un endroit inoccupé qui ne communique pas
directement avec les endroits occupés. Toutes
les installations intérieures et remises extérieures
exigent l’addition d’une cheminée approuvée par le
manufacturier. La cheminée doit être installée sans
aucune modiÞ cation et selon les exigences fournies
par le manufacturier.
These codes, standards and Zodiac Pool Systems,
Inc., require that the heater be properly vented as
outlined in this manual. Proper ventilation of exhaust
and combustion air are essential for the safe and
efÞ cient operation of the heater (See Section 3).
Section 3. Venting
3.1 Combustion Air Supply
The heater location must provide sufÞ cient
air supply for proper combustion and ventilation of
the surrounding area as outlined in the latest edition
of ANSI standard Z223.1 (NFPA 54) or in Canada,
CAN/CSA-B149.1, and any local codes that may be
applicable.
In general, these requirements specify that the
room in which a heater is installed should be provided
with two permanent air supply openings; one within
12 inches (305 mm) of the ceiling, the other within 12
inches (305 mm) of the ß oor. All indoor installations
must have openings to outside air for combustion,
ventilation, and dilution of ß ue gases from inside
the building (see Figure 5 and Table 3). Zodiac
Pool Systems, Inc., does not recommend indoor
installations that do not provide combustion air from
outside the building.
All outdoor shelter installations (Canada only)
must have uninterrupted openings to outside air for
combustion and ventilation. The installation must
be in accordance with the latest edition of CAN/
CSA B149.1. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc., does not
recommend outdoor shelter installations that depend
on internal air for combustion. Combustion air should
be ducted to the heater from outside the structure.
Outside Air Supply: When combustion air
is supplied directly through an outside wall, each
opening should have a minimum free area of one
square inch per 4,000 BTU/h (1.2kW) input of the
total input rating of all appliances in the enclosed
area. If air is provided through horizontal ducts,
each opening and duct must provide one square inch
of ß ow area for each 2000 BTU/h (0.6 kW). These
requirements are summarized in Table 3. Note that
the areas speciÞ ed are net free areas and should be
increased when the openings are covered by screens,
louvers, grills or other protective covers (see Figure 5
and Table 3 notes).
Note In Canada, follow Canadian Standard, CAN/
CSA-B149.1 or local codes.
Exhaust Fans or Vents: Any equipment
which exhausts air from the room where the heater
is installed can deplete the combustion air supply or
reverse the natural draft action of the venting system.
This could cause ß ue products to accumulate in the
room. Additional air must be supplied to compensate
for such exhaust.
The information in Table 3 is not applicable in
installations where exhaust fans or blowers of any
type are used. Such installations must be designed by
qualiÞ ed engineers.
The heater must be completely isolated and
protected from any source of corrosive chemical fumes
such as those emitted by trichlorethylene, perchloroethylene, chlorine, etc.
WARNING
Do not store any chemicals, cleaners, or other
corrosive material near combustion air openings
or in the room. Avoid locating appliance vents in
the vicinity of combustion air openings. Failure
to prevent corrosive materials from mixing with
combustion air can result in reduced heater life and
unsafe heater operation.
AVERTISSEMENT
Ne pas entreposer ni utiliser d'essence ni d'autres
vapeurs ou liquides inß ammables à proximité de cet
appareil ou de tout autre appareil.
*Area indicated is for one of two openings; one at ß oor level and
one at the ceiling, so the total net free area would be double the
Þ gures indicated. For special conditions, refer to NFPA54 ANSI
Z223.1. In Canada refer to the National Standard CAN/CSA-
B149.1 which differs from this table.
Note: If using screens and/or metal louvers, compensate by adding
50% additional area to each opening. If using wood louvers each open-
ing must be at least four times the area indicated in the table above.

the heater (See Section 2.3.4). If the heater cannot
be placed so as to meet the requirements stated in
Section 2.3.4, a vent pipe and cap may be added to
the heater to move the exhaust vent opening to a
position that complies with the requirements. When
the heater is installed in areas of high wind or when
unavoidably installed near a vertical obstruction where
downdrafting may occur, it may be desirable to add a
vent cap directly to the top of the heater. In all cases,
vent pipes and caps must be of the same diameter as
the exhaust outlet of the heater. Approved vent caps
may be obtained through your Jandy distributor.
3.2.2 Indoor and Outdoor Shelter
Installations
WARNING
Vent pipe diameter must be as required by the
National fuel Gas Code Z223.1 or the Canadian
Installation Codes for Gas Appliances CAN/CSAB149.1. Undersized pipe can result in inadequate
venting and oversize pipe can result in vent condensation. In either case the result can be release
of combustion products to the indoors. This can
cause serious injury or death by carbon monoxide
poisoning or asphyxiation.
AVERTISSEMENT
Le diamètre des tuyaux de ventilation doit répondre
aux exigences du National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1
ou du code canadien des installations des appareils
à gaz CAN/CSA B149.1. Des tuyaux trop petits
risquent d’entraîner une ventilation inadéquate et
des tuyaux trop gros risquent de provoquer une
condensation dans les tuyaux. Dans un cas comme
dans l’autre, des produits de combustion risquent
de s’échapper dans le bâtiment et causer des
blessures graves ou l’asphyxie par le monoxyde de
carbone.
All indoor installations and outdoor shelter
installations require a factory approved draft hood. The
draft hood must be installed without modiÞ cation. All
vent installations must be made in accordance with all
local, state or provincial codes and with:
1. The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
(NFPA 54), latest edition; pay particular
attention to the chapter addressing "Venting of
Equipment". Applicable provisions of additional
applicable local building codes may also need to
be followed.
2. In Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1.
Avoid long horizontal runs of the vent pipe, and
90° elbows, reductions and restrictions. Horizontal
runs should have at least a 1/4 inch rise per foot
(20mm per meter) in the direction of ß ow.
Avoid terminating heater vents near air
conditioning or air supply fans. The fans can pick up
exhaust ß ue products from the heater and return them
inside the building, creating a possible health hazard.
Do not locate the vent terminal where ß ue
products could strike against building materials and
cause degradation.
Vent opening should be well away from trees
or other obstructions that would prevent free air ß ow
Page 14
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
to and from vent terminal. Do not terminate the vent
under decks, stairways, or car ports.
Be sure to support all venting so that connections
will not separate and so that the weight of the vent pipe
does not rest on the heater draft hood. All connections
should be made with rustproof sheet metal screws.
Do not weld or fasten the vent pipe to the heater draft
hood. The draft hood and heater top must be easily
removable for normal heater service and inspection.
The draft hood outlet is to be connected to
an unobstructed vent pipe of the same diameter,
terminating outside the building. The vent must
terminate at least two (2) feet (0.6 m) above the
highest point of the roof or other object that is within
ten (10) feet (3.0 m) of the vent termination. The vent
pipe must have a listed vent cap which allows a full
equivalent opening for ß ue products (see Figure 5).
The top of the vent cap must be at least Þ ve feet in
vertical height above the draft hood outlet.
Type “B” double wall or equivalent vent pipe is
recommended for the entire venting system. However,
single wall metal vent pipe may be used within
the structure as speciÞ ed in the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 or in Canada
CAN/CSA-B149.1
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use sheet metal screws at
the snap lock joints of Type B gas vents.
When venting multiple appliances through one
common duct, each appliance must have its own vent
temperature limit switch. All vent limit switches must
be wired in series so as to prevent any appliance from
Þ ring in the event of a blocked vent. Refer to ANSI
Z223.1 or, in Canada, to CAN/CSA B149.1 for more
information on multiple venting.
3.2.3 Inspection and Replacement of
Existing Vent System with New
Components
If the Legacy Model LRZ electronic is being
installed to replace an existing pool heater, it is
recommended that a new appropriate venting system
be installed with the new heater. However, if an
existing venting system must be used, be sure to
carefully inspect the venting system to ensure that it is
in good condition and continues to be appropriate for
the Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater. Replace any
parts that are not in good and serviceable condition
with new parts before completing the pool heater
installation.
Section 4. Gas Connections
4.1 Gas Supply and Piping
Review the following general instructions before
continuing the installation.
Important: Do not install LP gas units indoors.
WARNING
The Legacy Model LRZ pool and spa heaters are
designed for use with either natural gas or LP gas.
Check the rating plate on the inner panel to be sure

3. Use the Þ gures in Table 4 to size the gas inlet
piping from the gas meter to the heater. Check all
local codes for compliance before installing the
heater.
Notes:
*1. These numbers are for natural gas (0.65 Sp. Gr.) and
are based on 1/2 inch (3.45 kPa) water column pressure
drop. Check supply pressure with a manometer, and local code requirements for variations. For LP gas, reduce
pipe diameter by one size, but maintain a minimum
3/4" diameter.
2. Check supply pressure and local code requirements before
proceeding with work.
3. Pipe Þ ttings must be considered when determining gas
pipe sizing.

6. Disconnect the heater and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply system during pressure
testing of the system at pressures higher than 1/2
pounds per square inch (psi) (3.45 kilopascals
[kPa]). If the test pressure is equal to or less than
1/2 psi (3.45 kPa), close the manual shutoff valve
on the heater during the piping pressure test.
7. If the gas supply pressure is less than required,
check for undersized pipe between the meter and
the heater, a restrictive Þ tting, or an undersized
gas meter. Gas supply pressures to the heater are
listed in Table 5.
Figure 6. Proper Design for a Sediment Trap/Drip Leg
Page 16
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
4.2 Manifold Pressure
ConÞ rm that gas supply pressure is correct. If
the gas supply pressure is less than required, check
for undersized pipe between the meter and the heater,
a restrictive Þ tting, or an undersized gas meter. Gas
supply pressures to the heater, when it is operating, are
listed in Table 5.
CAUTION
Manifold gas pressure for the Legacy Model
LRZ natural gas heaters should be set at 4" WC.
Propane heaters should be set to 9" WC.
ATTENTION
La pression du collecteur de pression pour les
systèmes de chauffage au gaz naturel devrait être
de 4'’ WC. Pour les sytèmes de chauffage au gaz
propane devrait être de 9'’ WC.
The manifold pressure may be checked by
connecting a manometer to the pressure port on the
outlet side of the valve. The pressure will be zero when
the heater is not running. When the heater is operating
the manifold gas pressure should be 4" WC for natural
gas heaters and 9.0" WC for LP gas heaters.
If the manifold pressure indicated above is not
correct, check the gas train for possible problems.
Check the meter, gas line, gas Þ ttings, and gas shut
off for under sizing. Check the gas valve inlet for
excess pipe dope, if all is correct, then it may be
necessary to adjust the gas valve regulator. To adjust
the manifold gas pressure, Þ rst remove the slotted cap
next to the inlet pressure port on the inlet side of the
gas valve. Under the slotted cap is a slotted plastic
screw which increases the manifold pressure when
turned clockwise and decreases the manifold pressure
when turned counterclockwise. After measurements,
and adjustments if necessary, have been made, make
sure to replace the 1/8" NPT gas valve plugs on the
inlet and manifold pressure ports, and the cap on the
manifold pressure adjustment screw. It is extremely
important to replace these parts before leaving the
installation. Failure to do so can result in damage to
property or injury or death. With the heater Þ ring, the
pressure must be within the range shown in Table 5.
Also check the pressure with the heater off.
4.3 Special Precautions for LP Gas
LP Gas is heavier than air and can therefore more
readily collect or “pool” in enclosed areas if provision
for proper ventilation is not made. Installation of
pool heaters in enclosed areas such as pits is not
recommended. However, if such an installation is
required be sure to pay special attention to proper
ventilation requirements for LP gas. Locate heaters
a safe distance from LP gas cylinders and Þ lling
equipment. Consult the National Fuel Gas Code
(NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1, latest edition), the Natural
Gas and Propane Installation Code in Canada (CAN/
CSA B149.1, latest edition), and any other local
codes and Þ re protection authorities about speciÞ c
installation restrictions in your area.
Section 5. Water Connections
5.1 Water Piping
Figure 7 illustrates typical piping for pool
equipment in pool/spa combination pools.
For normal installations, do not install a shutoff
valve or any kind of variable restriction in the water
piping between the heater outlet and the pool/spa. In
special installations where a shut-off valve, diverter
valve or other variable restriction is required in the
plumbing between the heater outlet and the pool,
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. recommends the installation
of a pressure relief valve on the heater (see Section
5.6).
Arrangement of pool system components other
than as illustrated in these diagrams can affect the
operation of the heater’s water pressure switch.
Location of the heater above or below the pool
water surface can also affect operation of the switch.
In general, the pressure switch can be adjusted
to accommodate this effect if the heater water
connections are no more than six feet below the pool
water surface and no more than 15 feet above it. See
instructions for pressure switch adjustment (Section
7.7) in the heater start-up section of this manual for
more information about this.
Note that when pool equipment is located below
the pool surface a leak can result in large scale water
loss or ß ooding. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. cannot
be responsible for such water loss or ß ooding or the
damage caused by either occurrence.
For special installations such as water
connections below the water level of the pool, or for
other questions contact the Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc.
Technical Service department at (800) 822-7933.
5.2 Check Valve Installation
The heater must be protected from backsiphoning of water, which can result in dry starts. If
there is any chance of back-siphoning, provide a check
valve between the pool and the Þ lter pump inlet.
When an automatic chemical feeder is installed
in the plumbing, it must be installed downstream of
the heater (see Section 5.7). A check valve must be
installed between the heater and the chemical feeder to
prevent back-siphoning of chemically saturated water
into the heater where it will damage the components.
5.3 Automatic Flow Control Valve
The inlet/outlet header of the Legacy Model LRZ
electronic heater comes equipped with an automatic
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
AQUAPURE
Page 17
Figure 7. Typical Piping Installation
ß ow control valve. The automatic ß ow control valve
maintains the proper ß ow through the heater at rates
up to approximately 125 Gallons Per Minute (GPM)
(475 liters per minute [LPM]). If the Þ lter system ß ow rate is higher than approximately 125 GPM (475
LPM), install a manual bypass valve (see Figure 7),
then perform a temperature rise test (see Section 7.8)
and adjust the ß ow using the bypass valve until the
proper temperature rise is obtained.
5.4 Reversible Water Connections
The Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater is
shipped with water connections on the right side,
but can be modiÞ ed in the Þ eld to provide left-side
water connections. This procedure involves removing
the heat exchanger headers and reinstalling them
on opposite ends of the tube assembly. Some of the
heater wiring must be disconnected and re-routed, so
this procedure must be done only by a trained service
technician. Heat exchanger reversals are generally
done before the installation of power and water to the
heater. If you need to reverse the heat exchanger on
a previously installed heater be sure that all electrical
power, the gas supply and water supply have been
turned off before starting the procedure. These
instructions have been written to include the steps
needed when reversing the water connections on an
existing installation. If you are reversing the headers
on a new installation, some steps will be ignored.
Water connection reversal is illustrated in Figures 8
and 9. Proceed as follows:
2. Remove the heater front panel (door).
3. Remove the I/O header side cover plates, top and
bottom. See Figure 10.

5.5 Connections at Heater
The Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater has
a standard two (2) inch water header and coupling
design. With this feature, only nominal two inch PVC
or CPVC may be connected to the heater. However,
by installing the appropriate pipe adapters and two
short pieces of two inch plastic pipe (supplied by the
installer), any size existing pipe may be Þ tted to the
heater.
To connect a section of 2” PVC or CPVC pipe
to the heater, Þ rst slip a coupling nut onto the pipe.
Then prepare the end of the pipe with the proper PVC/
CPVC primer and glue. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions provided with the primer and glue for
preparation procedures and curing times. Apply the
slip-Þ t side of the coupling to the end of the pipe.
Allow the glue to cure completely. Set the o-ring
into the groove on the face of the coupling. Slide the
coupling nut up to the coupling and tighten it to the
threaded connection on the header (see Figure 12).
5.6 Pressure Relief Valve
A pressure relief valve (PRV) is recommended in
all installations, and is mandatory in any installation
in which the water ß ow can be shut off between the
heater outlet and the pool/spa.
A pressure relief valve is not supplied with the
Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater. However, it is
recommended that a pressure relief valve be installed
and may even be required by local codes. Be sure to
check any applicable installation codes in your area to
determine whether a pressure relief valve is required.
See Section 11.2 (Parts List) of this manual for the
appropriate kit part number.
The pressure rating of the valve should be at or
below the lowest working pressure of any component
in the system. The maximum working pressure of this
heater is 75 psi. Any pressure relief valve installed
must comply with provisions of the standard described
in ANSI Z21.22 for the United Sates or CSA 4.4 in
Canada.
Follow these steps to install a pressure relief valve.
1. To protect the threads while drilling, screw the
brass adapter (included with the Jandy PRV kit)

5.7 Auxiliary Components,
Chlorinators, Ozone Generators,
and Sanitizing Chemicals
The Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater is
manufactured with materials that are not compatible
with high concentrations of ozone, chlorine, bromine,
or other sanitizing chemicals. Heater damage caused
by excessive chemicals or improper ozonization is not
covered by the Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc., warranty.
Be sure to adhere to the following:
• When ozone is injected upstream of the heater,
install an offgas mixing chamber, or an ozone
bypass system between the heater and the ozone
injector to prevent ozone and air from entering
the heater.
• When chemical feeders are used, plumb the
feeder downstream of the heater and install an
in-line check valve between the heater and the
feeder (a minimum of 18" is required between
the heater and the check valve).
• Wire any electrical chemical feeder so that it
cannot operate unless the Þ lter pump is running.
If the feeder has an independent clock control,
synchronize it with the Þ lter clock.
• Never deposit chemicals directly in the pool

attached.
6.2 Main Power
Electrical wiring must be in accordance with the
latest edition of the National Electric Code (NEC),
ANSI/National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
70, unless local code requirements indicate otherwise.
In Canada, the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC, CSA
C22.1 No 1) must be followed.
The heater comes factory-wired intended for
use with 240 Volt, 60 Hz AC Þ eld electrical supply.
To use 120 Volt, 60 Hz AC requires rewiring of the
heater. This must be done by a certiÞ ed electrician
only, as with all wiring. To wire the heater for 120V,
60 Hz AC, follow the alternate 120V wiring method
depicted in Figure 16. Additionally, the ignition
control module must be rewired. The wire from the
terminal marked IGN/240 must be removed and placed
on the terminal marked IGN/120.
To wire the Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater
to a 120V or 240V /60 Hertz (Hz) electrical source:
1. Remove the door of the heater.
2. Connect the wires from the power source to the
leads on the right side of the heater in the space
behind the raceway. See Figure 15.

6.3 Bonding
CAUTION
To prevent premature failure of the appliance
resulting from stray voltages and voltage differentials, the heater must be bonded to other equipment
which is part of the pool plumbing system with a
solid copper wire not smaller in diameter than 8
AWG, 6 AWG in Canada.
ATTENTION
Pour éviter le bris prématuré de l'appareil dû à
des tensions vagabondes et à des différences
de tension, le chauffe-piscine doit être scellé à
l'équipement faisant partie de la plomberie de la
piscine à l'aide d'un Þ l de cuivre massif dont le
diamètre n'est pas inférieur à un calibre 8, et un
calibre 6 pour le Canada.
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. requires that the
appliance be connected to a "bonding loop" that
includes all electrical equipment in the system and on
the equipment pad. Bonding lugs must be connected
with a solid copper wire not smaller than 8 AWG (6
AWG in Canada). Failure to do so will void warranty.
Additionally, in the United States the National
Electrical Code and in Canada the Canadian Electrical
Code, require that all metallic components of a pool
structure, including reinforcing steel, metal Þ ttings
and above ground components be bonded together
(forming a “bonding grid”) with a solid copper
conductor not smaller than a 8 AWG (6 AWG in
Canada).
The NEC and the CEC also require that the
equipment and/or appliances associated with the pool
water circulating system, including, but not limited to,
pump motors and heaters be bonded together as part
of the equipotential bonding grid. Zodiac provides a
special labeled bonding lug on the right side of the
heater to accommodate this requirement.

Section 7. Operating Instructions
7.1 Normal Operation
The Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater is
capable of automatic operation based on a call for
heat at a preset temperature. The heater has an internal
safety system which allows operation in a variety
of conditions and prevents operation when certain
adverse conditions are encountered. The heater is
capable of diagnosing problems within the safety
control scheme, enabling faster service and less down
time in the event of a failure.
When the heater's transformer is provided with
a 120 VAC or 240 VAC supply, it in turn provides a
24 VAC signal to the safety circuit. When water is
ß owing through the heater, and the temperature of
the water entering the heater is below the temperature
control setting, an operating cycle is initiated by the
automatic control. The control circuit is closed, the
igniter is energized. After a 40 second igniter heat-up,
the gas valve is opened. Gas ß ows through the burners,
is mixed with air in the combustion chamber, and
is ignited by the hot surface igniter. Operation will
continue until the temperature of the water entering the
heater reaches the temperature control setting.
If ignition is unsuccessful, or if the ß ame fails
during normal operation, the ignition control shuts off
the gas valve. To reset the Legacy heater to provide
three (3) additional attempts without waiting an hour,
turn the control off and return it to either pool or spa.
The ignition control will automatically reset itself and
restart the ignition after one hour.
7.2 Start-Up
WARNING
For your safety, when starting the heater, keep your
head and face well away from the burner area to
prevent any risk of personal injury.
AVERTISSEMENT
Pour votre sécurité personnelle lorsque vous mettez
l’appareil en marche, tenez votre tête et votre
visage loin du brûleur pour éviter tout risque de
blessure.
CAUTION
Do not use this heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualiÞ ed service techni-
cian to inspect the heater and replace any part of
the control system and any gas control which has
been under water.
ATTENTION
N'utilisez pas cet appareil s'il a été plongé dans
l'eau, même partiellement. Faites inspecter
l'appareil par un technicien qualiÞ é et remplacez
toute partie du système de contrôle et toute
commande qui ont été plongés dans l'eau.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the
heater.
ATTENTION
En cas de surchauffe ou si l'alimentation en gaz ne
s'arrête pas, fermez manuellement le robinet d'arrêt
de l'admission de gaz.
CAUTION
Do not attempt repairs on the gas controls or
appliance. Tampering is dangerous and voids all
warranties.
ATTENTION
Ne tentez pas d’effectuer des réparations au
système de régulation du débit du gaz ou à
l’appareil. Toute modiÞ cation non autorisée est
dangereuse et entraîne l’annulation de toutes les
garanties.
CAUTION
Keep all objects off the top of the heater. Blocking
air ß ow could damage the heater, and may void the
warranty.
ATTENTION
Ne posez aucun objet sur le dessus de l’appareil.
Il pourrait empêcher la circulation de l’air, ce qui
risquerait d’endommager l’appareil et d’annuler la
garantie.
WARNING
Vent pipes, and heater tops get hot! These surfaces
can cause serious burns. Do not touch these
surfaces while the heater is in operation.
AVERTISSEMENT
Les tuyaux d’aération et le dessus de l’appareil
deviennent chauds! Ils peuvent causer de graves
brûlures. Ne touchez pas à ces surfaces lorsque
l’appareil est en marche.
Be sure that there is water in the pool and that the
surface level is above the skimmer or other inlet of the
pool's Þ lter system.
ConÞ rm that pool water is ß owing normally
through the pool system and equipment. With any
new pool or spa installation, operate the Þ lter pump
with the heater off long enough to completely clean
the water. This will remove any installation residue
from the water. Clean the Þ lter at the end of this
operation before starting the heater. Start the heater
in accordance with the Operating Instructions section
of this manual, with particular attention to the lighting
Page 26
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
and shutdown instructions and temperature control
operation.
The heater may not start on the Þ rst try. Air in
the gas line or other start-up situations may cause it
to cycle. It will lock out if ignition is not achieved
in three attempts (see Section 9.2, "Service Codes").
To reset the Legacy Model LRZ electronic heater
to provide three (3) additional attempts, turn off the
control and then put it back in either the Pool or Spa
mode.
When the heater starts, immediately feel the
outlet header of the heater to conÞ rm that there is
adequate water ß ow. The header should not be hot.
Normally, water temperature will rise only a few
degrees as it passes through the heater, and a "hot"
header or pipe indicates low water ß ow.
When the heater is Þ red for the Þ rst time, the com-
bustion chamber refractory binder material is driven
out by the heat of the ß ame. White smoke and/or
sharp odors may be emitted from the vent during
this period. Do not inhale combustion product fumes
at any time, and especially when these fumes are
being emitted. This "burn-in" period will last only a
few minutes.
Lorsque l’appareil est mis en marche pour la
première fois, le matériau liant réfractaire de la
chambre de combustion est expulsé par la chaleur
de la ß amme. De la fumée blanche et de fortes
odeurs peuvent se dégager du tuyau d’aération à
ce moment-là. N’inhalez les fumées de combustion
à aucun moment, surtout au moment où elles sont
émises. Cette période de combustion ne durera que
quelques minutes.

temperature of the water exceeds the thermostat
setting it is necessary to increase the thermostat
setting to exceed the water temperature. Adjust
the thermostat setting (desired temperature) to be
greater than the water temperature. The igniter
lights the burner when the thermostat calls for
heat.
9. Set the time clock, if one is installed.
7.6.2 Shutdown
Complete shutdown instructions are as follows:
1. Set both temperature controls to their lowest
setting.
2. Turn off the control. Make sure the display

switch to close at too low of a ß ow can damage the
appliance. Adjust the switch to turn the heater off,
not on.
ATTENTION
Le manocontact de pression d’eau doit être réglé
de façon à ce que l’appareil cesse de fonctionner
si la pompe s’arrête. Si le manocontact est réglé
pour se fermer lorsque le débit d’eau est trop faible,
l’appareil risque de s’endommager. Réglez le manocontact pour qu’il arrête l’appareil, et non pour qu’il
le mette en marche.
Figure 20. Gas Valve
The pressure switch is preset at the factory for
activation at 2 psi (14 kPa). Do not adjust the pressure
switch if the heater is installed more than 15 feet (4.57
m) below the pool surface. Consult your local Jandy
representative for recommendations.
On some installations, the piping from the heater
to the pool is very short. The back pressure could be
too low to trigger the pressure switch. If this happens,
it may be necessary to install a directional Þ tting or
elbows where the return line enters the pool. This will
increase back pressure enough for the heater to operate
properly.
Make sure the pool Þ lter is clean before making
any pressure switch adjustment. A dirty Þ lter will
restrict the water ß ow and the pressure switch cannot

To adjust the pressure switch, proceed as follows
(see Figure 22).
1. Set the heater control to the "OFF" mode.
2. Remove the side panel above the front header to
access the water pressure switch.
3. Start the Þ lter pump and conÞ rm by means of a
voltmeter that the pressure switch closes (if the
switch fails to close, replace it with a switch that
has a lower minimum setting).
4. Set the heater control to either "POOL" or "SPA".
Heater should start.
5. Pry out the top cap on the pressure switch.
6. Use a 7/32 inch Allen wrench to turn the adjustment screw very slowly clockwise until the
heater goes off.
7. Slowly turn the pressure switch adjustment screw
counterclockwise one-quarter turn. The heater
should come back on.
8. Check the adjustment by turning the Þ lter pump
OFF. The burners should shut off immediately.
If they do not, restart the Þ lter pump and repeat
Steps 6 and 7. Check the adjustment again.
9. Return the pool temperature control to the
desired temperature.
It may be necessary to repeat these steps to get
a proper setting. The switch must be set so that the
heater will not Þ re unless the pump is running. If a
proper setting cannot be reached, contact the factory
service department.
7.8 Temperature Rise
The Legacy pool and spa heaters have an
internal bypass which accommodates a wide range of
water ß ow. The bypass is easily adjustable to change
the temperature rise for optimum performance and
length of heater life. The bypass assures constant heat
exchanger ß ow even though ß ow through the Þ lter
system will vary depending on how dirty the Þ lter is.
For most installations, an external bypass valve
is not needed in the heater water piping. This is due to
the large size of the heater's internal bypass valve. If
the pump ß ow rate is known to exceed 125 gpm (7.9
l/s), an external bypass may be needed to assure proper
heater operation.
Water ß ow should be conÞ rmed upon start-up of
the heater and in most servicing situations. If the ß ow
is not normal, corrections must be made to the pool
system. Flow is evaluated by determining the water
temperature rise through the heat exchanger.
Before checking the temperature rise, make sure
that the pool Þ lter is clean and that gas supply and
manifold pressures are correct. If necessary, clean
all components of the Þ lter system. Temperature rise
is measured in the return header of the Legacy. To
measure the temperature rise, turn off the Þ lter pump
and remove the plastic plug protruding through the
cabinet on the return header side of the heater. See
Figure 23. With the plug removed, install the special
thread adapter and Pete’s Plug
pocket thermometer. A temperature rise measurement
kit is available through your Jandy distributor. See
Section 11 of this manual for the correct kit number.
The internal bypass can be adjusted by means of
a screw on the right-hand side of the header. To adjust
the temperature rise to within the ranges speciÞ ed in
Table 6, proceed as follows:
1. If the piping system has an external bypass valve,
close it.

3. Start the Þ lter pump.
4. After three minutes, note and record the thermometer reading. This is the pool water temperature.
5. Start the heater by setting the control panel to
either "POOL" or "SPA". Allow the heater to
operate for Þ ve minutes or more. Note and record
the thermometer reading. Subtract pool water
temperature from this reading. This difference
is the temperature rise. Refer to Table 6. If your
measured temperature rise is within the range
designated for your heater, skip steps 6 through
8.
6. Locate the bypass adjustment screw on the righthand side of the header (see Figure 23). Loosen
the nut so that the screw can be adjusted. A slight
water leak past the nut may be expected. Turn the
screw counterclockwise to decrease the temperature rise, and clockwise to increase the temperature rise as needed to achieve the ranges in Table
6. After the adjustment, tighten the nut so that no
leaks occur.
7. If the temperature rise is too low and cannot
be raised by means of the adjustment screw,
the ß ow is in excess of 125 GPM (7.9 lps). An
external bypass will need to be installed, or if one
already exists, open the external bypass valve
gradually until the temperature range in Table 6
is achieved.
8. If it was necessary to adjust the external bypass
as outlined in step 6, scribe a line on the bypass
shaft and case to mark the correct adjustment
position. Wire or remove the valve handle to
prevent tampering.
heater internal bypass assembly also affects measured
temperature rise.
Section 8. Maintenance
8.1 Water Chemistry
The mineral content of swimming pool water
increases daily due to natural evaporation and the
addition of sanitizing chemicals. If the mineral
concentration in the pool gets too high, the excess
minerals will deposit on the walls of the pool, in the
Þ lter system, and in the heater tubes.
The proper chemical balance in spa water is more
critical than in a swimming pool heater operation. Due
to the spa's size, high water temperature and heavy
usage, chemical values in a spa can vary greatly. This
chemical imbalance can result in unsanitary water
conditions, and affect the life of the heater.
Proper chemical balances are necessary for
sanitary bathing conditions as well as ensuring your
heater's long life. Kits are available from your local
pool supply dealer for making the various tests for
mineral content. One of these kits will detect copper in
the system. This is usually a warning that corrosion is
taking place, possibly due to a low pH value combined
with other chemistry problems. The condition can
be corrected by changing the spa water and closely
monitoring the pH factor and chemical properties of
the water. Be sure to keep your chemical levels within
the values indicated in Table 7. Zodiac Pool Systems,
Inc. does not warrant heat exchangers damaged by
corrosive chemical levels or excess dissolved solids
in pool or spa water.
For spas, it is also necessary to perform water
changes in addition to chemical treatment. It is
recommended to change the spa water every 60 days
for light usage and every 30 days if usage is heavy.
In a system without external bypass, it may be
necessary to make changes. If temperature rise is too
low, a manual bypass must be installed. If temperature
rise is too high, there is inadequate ß ow, possibly
requiring a change to the piping system or a larger
pump. Before proceeding with either remedy, verify
proper heater operation. Low gas input results in low
temperature rise and vice-versa. A problem with the

mispositioned water valves, that the gas or electric
power supplies are not shut off and that time clocks
are properly adjusted. Also be sure that there is no
blockage of the exhaust vent grill or rear louvers,
which supply combustion air to the burners.
10.2 Natural-Draft Combustion System
The Legacy Model LRZ electronic pool and spa
heater has an atmospheric combustion system. This
system is illustrated in Figure 27.
As the heated exhaust gases rise out of the
combustion chamber, ß ow is created through the
system and fresh combustion air is drawn into the
heater through the louvers cut into the front and sides
of the heater. Gas is forced through an oriÞ ce into
the open end of a burner. When the gas ß ows into the
burner, a “negative” pressure is created at the opening
of the burner. This negative pressure pulls air into the
burner with the gas and mixes the two together. As
the gas/air mixture ß ows through the burner ports it is
ignited in the combustion chamber. Hot combustion
products then rise through a highly efÞ cient heat
exchanger. Combustion products then enter a ß ue
collector and are directed to the outdoors through the
top of the heater or a vent pipe and cap.
10.3 Heater Components and Their
Operation
1. Gas Valve / Regulator - The gas valve controls
gas ß ow into the manifold. It provides ß ow only
when the temperature control requires heat and
only if all safety controls enable operation. It
is also a positive pressure regulator. It regulates
the gas pressure in the manifold to speciÞ ca-
tions addressed earlier in this manual. This is
necessary for proper operation of the burner
system.

10.1 General Information
A qualiÞ ed professional technician must service
the Legacy Model LRZ electronic pool heater using
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc.'s service procedures. Before
calling for service, however, the owner should check
for obvious problems. The other components in the
pool system, including pump, Þ lters and strainers,
water valves, gas supply, electrical power and time
clocks, have an affect on heater operation.

2. Temperature Control - The Legacy Models are
equipped with an electronic control which senses
water temperature by means of a thermistor and
controls heater operation to bring the water to
the temperature selected. It has an option for two
separate thermostat settings which are typically
used to set pool and spa temperatures.
3. Ignition Control - The ignition control provides
energy for ignition of the air/gas mixture,
monitors the ß ame and controls the gas valve.
Then it applies electrical power to a "hot surface"
igniter. When the igniter is hot enough, the
ignition control opens the gas valve. It has
sophisticated means to sense ignition and ß ame
condition so that unburned gas will not escape.
Once the ignition control has sensed ß ame, it de-
energizes the igniter. After the burner is shut off,
the ignition control provides a post-purge period.
4. Igniter - The hot surface igniter is a ceramic
element which becomes very hot when electrical power is applied to it. The hot surface igniter
directly ignites the air/gas mixture in the combustion chamber.
5. Flame Sensor - The ß ame sensor is the electrode
through which the ignition control detects "rectiÞ cation" of current passed through the ß ame. In-
adequate rectiÞ cation indicates an unsatisfactory ß ame condition. The rectiÞ cation signal can be
measured by attaching the leads of a DC ammeter
to the two (2) pins on the connector of the
ignition control labeled "FC". A wire harness,
available from Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc., makes
it easier to attach the voltmeter leads. The ß ame
current should not be less than 1.5 micro-amps.
If the ß ame signal is less than 1.5 micro-amps,
verify correct gas supply and manifold pressures.
6. Limit Switches - Two limit switches prevent
excessive water temperature - one at the heat
exchanger outlet and one for water leaving the
heater. If either senses excessive temperature,
burner operation is interrupted.
7. Water Pressure Switch - This control senses
whether or not water is available to the heater
by measuring back pressure inside of the heat
exchanger. If the pool water pump fails or the
water Þ lter is blocked, the pressure switch
prevents operation of the burner.
8. Fusible Link - This is a single-use switch which
detects abnormal temperature in the component
compartment of the heater. It is a fusible link
which is held to the combustion chamber just
above the burner tray by a sheet metal bracket.
Excessive temperature in the component compartment, possibly due to a blocked ß ue or ß ame
roll-out, will cause the link to fail. This opens
the safety circuit which shuts off the gas valve
and shuts the heater down.
10.4 Electrical Troubleshooting
This section describes procedures for checking
the electrical power and control components of the
heater one at a time and in the order they appear in the
control circuit. It is important to follow the sequence
of this troubleshooting guide because the safety circuit
is connected in series.
NOTE Pump must be running during the
troubleshooting procedure.
These procedures require a Volt-Ohm meter
with a minimum 0-250VAC voltage range, and
1-1000 Ohm resistance range. Figure 28 shows
the power and control circuits and where to take
measurements. Location numbers in circles have
been added, and will be referenced in the following
sections.
Where test points are shown at circuit board
connectors, the probe of the meter can be carefully
pushed into the connector along side of the wire at the
connection to be measured.
The electrical power supply can be checked with
the heater not set to Þ re. All other procedures need to
be checked with power correctly supplied to the heater,
all external devices set so that the heater is allowed to
Þ re and the heater's thermostat set so that there is a call
for heat.
As stated at the beginning of the manual, some
of these procedures are hazardous. Only a qualiÞ ed
service technician should service the heater.
10.4.1 Electrical Power Supply
The electrical components of the Legacy Model
LRZ electronic pool heaters are designed to operate
with supply voltage ranging from 102V to 132V at 60
Hz if connected to a nominal 120 Volt power supply,
or 204V to 264V at 60 Hz if connected to a nominal
240 Volt power supply. Measure supply voltage at
the power supply leads where they enter the heater to
verify that the correct voltage is supplied to the heater.
If no voltage is present, correct this external
power supply problem to the heater. Circuit breakers,
time clock settings or similar devices may be the
problem. Voltage outside of the above ranges may
be due to poor wiring, poor connections, other loads
such as air conditioning compressors or to an electric
utility company problem. Arrange for correction of the
voltage as appropriate.
10.4.2 Controller
The controller must be operational in order to
check the control circuits of the heater.
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
Page 39
10.4.3 Control Circuit Troubleshooting
The heater controls are arranged in several 24V
60Hz circuits with some operating and safety controls
arranged in series circuits.
Troubleshooting is done by probing for voltage
between the common and various points in the circuit
to determine which component is preventing operation.
Check points are indicated on Figure 28. The black
lead of the meter should be attached to the common
tap on the secondary side of the transformer and may
be left there throughout most of the procedure.
The recommended procedure steps through each
circuit in a sequential way, and each section assumes
that components from all previous sections have been
tested and are operational. However, verifying voltage
at any of the numbered points in that circuit conÞ rms
that all prior components of the circuit are operational.
10.4.3.1 Transformer
Attach the black lead of the voltmeter to the
terminal on the secondary side of the transformer
of the transformer with a yellow wire attached to it
(common). This is test point 1 on Figure 28. Touch
the free red lead of the voltmeter to the terminal on
the secondary side of the transformer with a red wire
attached to it (24V tap), test point 2. The voltmeter
should read between 20-28 Volts AC. If the voltage
does not fall within the limits mentioned above,
replace the transformer.
10.4.3.2 Fuse
Leave the black voltmeter lead in place at test
point 1. Touch the free lead of the voltmeter to test
point 3, which is on the Power Interface Board where
the red wire from the transformer enters the end of the
connector. You will need to push the voltmeter lead
into the back of the connector along side of the wire
pin. The meter should read 20-28 Volts AC. If there
is no voltage, the fuse has failed. Inspect the rest of
the wiring, especially the safety circuit, to be sure that
there is no “short” such as contact of a terminal with
the heater chassis or another terminal which may have
caused the fuse to fail. Correct any such condition and
replace the fuse. Use only a 2 amp, 1 1/4" long x 1/4"
diameter, quick acting, glass tube type fuse.
10.4.3.3 Water Pressure Switch
Start by checking the voltage at the two legs of
this circuit on the controller, (see test points 4 and 5 in
Figure 28). Check the voltage at test point 4, where the
violet wire from the pressure switch enters the two-pin
connector on the controller. If there is not 20-28 Volts
AC nominal at this point, either the controller or the
two-pin wire harness is faulty and must be replaced. If
20-28 Volts AC nominal is detected at test point 4, then
move the red lead of the meter to test point 5 where the
gray wire from the Pressure Switch enters the two-pin
connector. If 20-28 Volts AC nominal is detected at
this point, the devices in this circuit are closed and the
circuit is working properly.
If there is no voltage the pressure switch contacts
are open. This is almost always due to a water ß ow
deÞ ciency, the most common one being a blocked
water Þ lter or defective pump. However, sometimes
it is due to blockage of the copper siphon loop tube or
mis-adjustment of the switch. Investigate thoroughly,
referring to Section 7.7 on “Adjusting the Water
Pressure Switch”. If there is no problem with the pool
system or pressure switch adjustment, replace the
pressure switch.
10.4.3.4 Fusible Link
To check the fusible link/air louver/Þ eld interlock
circuit, place the red lead at test point 6. If there is not
20-28 Volts AC nominal, either the controller or the
two-pin wire harness is faulty, or the water pressure
switch is open. If 20-28 Volts AC nominal is detected
at test point 6, then move the red lead of the meter to
test point 7. If 28 Volts AC nominal is detected, the
circuit is closed and working correctly. If the proper
voltage is not detected, the fusible link has opened, or
the wire harness is faulty.
If no voltage is detected at test point 7, the
fusible link has failed. This indicates higher than
normal temperatures in the component compartment
(vestibule). Normal component compartment
temperature is well below 300°F (148.9°C). The
fusible link is designed to fail at temperatures above
305°F (151.7°C). Excessive temperature might be
due to a blocked ß ue or heat exchanger. Clean the
heat exchanger and clear the ß ue and vent of any
restrictions. Sometimes the fusible link fails due
to ß ame roll-out. Flame roll-out may be caused by
delayed ignition or downdrafting in windy areas.
Thoroughly investigate the causes for ß ame roll-out
and correct the problem when replacing the fusible
link.
10.4.3.5 Temperature Limit Switches
Circuit
Since the limit switches are not easily accessible,
the voltage can be checked at the two legs of the
circuit at the controller (see test points 8 and 9 in
Figure 28).
Check the voltage at test point 8. If there is
not 20-28 Volts AC nominal at this point, either the
controller or the two-pin wire harness is faulty, or one
of the two safeties (water pressure and fuselink) before
it are open. If 20-28 Volts AC nominal is detected at
this point, then move the red lead of the meter to test
point 9 where the black wire from the 130° limit enters
the two-pin connector. If 20-28 Volts AC nominal is
detected at this point, the devices in this circuit are
closed and the circuit is working properly.
If there is no voltage, one of the limit switches
Page 40
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
is open. This is normally due to excessive water
temperature, which should be thoroughly investigated
before replacement of limit switches. Excessive water
temperature may be caused by low water ß ow. Water ß ow deÞ ciency may be due to obvious problems
such as a defective pump or blocked water Þ lter.
Alternatively, excessive water temperature may be due
to over-Þ ring, or to a problem with the water piping or
the heater's internal bypass control. Over-Þ ring might
be a result of an incorrect gas oriÞ ce or supply of
propane gas to a heater intended for natural gas.
If there are no such fundamental problems,
identify which of the switches is open. Limit switch
access is through the limit switch plugs on the side of
the heater to which water pipes are connected. Remove
the limit switch plugs from the bottom of the header
and gently remove the switches from the wells.
Note that the limit switches have different
trip points, and it is important that replacements are
correct. The 150°F switch has a red dot on the top of
the switch, and is closest to the heater jacket, must be
installed in the lower well in the header. The 130°F
switch has no dot, and is farthest from the heater
jacket. must be installed in the upper well in the outlet
of the header.
Move the red meter lead to the terminal
connection on the 150°F switch that is connected back
to the controller. The voltmeter should read 20-28
Volts AC nominal. No voltage here means that the
two-pin wire harness is bad and should be replaced. If
voltage is detected at this point move the lead to the
other terminal of the switch. If the voltmeter does not
show voltage then the 150°F limit is bad and should be
replaced. If the meter reads 20-28 Volts AC nominal,
move the lead to the terminal of the 130°F limit that
is connected to the wire that jumps between the two
limit switches. No voltage here means that the wire
assembly is bad and needs to be replaced. 20-28 Volts
AC nominal shows that the wire between the two
limits is making a good connection. Now move the
lead to the other connection terminal on the 130°F
limit. No voltage at this point indicates that the limit
switch has failed and needs to be replaced. Voltage
here would show that the limit is good and that the
two-pin wire harness may have a bad connection.
Replace the wire harness if necessary.
10.4.3.6 Gas Valve Voltage
The gas valve will operate only when there is a
call for heat, all safety circuits have been satisÞ ed and
the hot surface igniter has had power for appoximately
35 seconds. If the gas valve does not operate under
these conditions, check the voltage going to the gas
valve. Place one voltmeter lead on the connector on
the ignition control where the yellow wire is connected
(test point 14). Touch the free lead of the meter to the
gas valve terminal where the brown wire is attached at
the gas valve. This test point will have voltage present
only during a trial for ignition or during normal
operation. The meter should read 20-28 Volts AC.
If there is no voltage, then there is a bad connection
between the gas valve and the ignition control.
Replace the wire harness.
Listen closely to the gas valve when it is Þ rst
energized (24V Þ rst appears at test point 13 during
the trial for ignition). There should an audible "click"
when the valve opens.
If there is voltage at the gas valve terminal where
the brown wire is attached, but the gas valve does not
open, replace the valve.
10.4.3.7 Igniter/Ignition Control Circuit
WARNING
The igniter, power supply circuit board and some
terminals of the ignition control utilize 120V or 240V
power and require appropriate servicing precautions. Note that wires and terminals of these components may be “hot” even when the component is not
operating.
AVERTISSEMENT
Le dispositif d’allumage, le circuit d’alimentation
électrique et certaines bornes de la commande
d’allumage utilisent une tension de 120 V ou de 240
V et exigent des précautions appropriées lors du
service d’entretien et de réparation. Notez que les
Þ ls et les bornes de ces composants peuvent être
chauds même si le composant ne fonctionne pas.
With the igniter energized, there will be voltage
of 102-132 VAC supplied by the ignition control, test
point J and test point I, if the heater is connected to
a 120V supply. If the heater is connected to a 240V
supply, there will be voltage of 102-132 VAC supplied
by the ignition control, test point L and test point I,
with the igniter energized. This voltage will be applied
only during igniter heat up or trial for ignition. Even
if voltage has been conÞ rmed at the end of the safety
circuit, the “trial for ignition” sequence is imposed
by the ignition control. This sequence consists of a
15 second period of pre-purge, a 40 second period for
heat-up of the igniter and a 7 second trial for ignition.
During this last 47 seconds there is voltage between
test point J and test point I, or between test point L
and test point I. If satisfactory ignition is not achieved,
the igniter is turned off and the system waits for a 15
second inter-purge period. The system may go through
this cycle as many as three times, but thereafter it is
“locked out” by the ignition control for a one hour
period. Additional attempts will be made only if the
call for heat is interrupted by turning off electrical
power or setting the control to “Off” and then back to
"Pool" or "Spa" or after the one hour delay.
To trouble shoot the ignition control's igniter,
observe that the normal ignition sequence takes
place. After the 15 second pre-purge, note the voltage
Legacy™ Model LRZE Pool/Spa Heater Installation and Operation Manual
Page 41
between test points J and I, or test points L and I. Then
look for the glow of the igniter through the view port
on the right side of the combustion chamber. If the
correct voltage is detected between points J and I,
or points L and I during the trial for ignition but the
igniter does not glow, check the connections to the
igniter.
Check the igniter with the ohmmeter. Disconnect
the IGN120 or IGN240 terminals from the ignition
control and the connector at test point I. Place one lead
of the meter on each wire to the igniter. The resistance
should read between 40 and 75 Ohms at ambient air
temperature. If the meter reads outside of this range or
shows an open or short circuit, replace the igniter. If a
short circuit is indicated, it is necessary to investigate
further to Þ nd if the short is from the igniter or the ß ame sense circuit.
If voltage does not appear between points J and
I, or points L and I during the trial for ignition, there
may be a bad connection, faulty transformer, or a
short on the ignition control. Check all connections,
the transformer, and the ignition control for loose
or corroded connections or failure and replace as
necessary.
