Protecting the Environment – Now and for Future Generations
The Lochinvar EnergyRite2is one of the most environmentally friendly pool heaters on the market today. With NOx emissions less than 20 ppm, it exceeds the stringent low NOx emmisions standards of Texas and of California’s South Coast Air Quality Management Districts. The EnergyRite
2
not only complies with the current emmisions standard – it also meets the more restrictive NOx limitations proposed for the future.
Quality Built-In
Built to commercial grade standards, EnergyRite2pool heaters
are better designed and better built. The rust
free water surfaces are completely lined with
a molecularly molded porcelain glass mixture,
extending the performance of your pool
heater. Its gasket free, copper finned tube
heat exchanger is the only one in its class - eliminating leaks and failures common with similar models, while providing years of efficient operation. And every EnergyRite
2
pool heater is quality checked throughout the manufacturing process, giving you a pool heater built to a higher standard.
Faster Heat Up Time, Plus Higher Efficiency Equates to Lower Operating Costs
With efficiencies of up to 88%, the EnergyRite2will make an immediate impact by lowering your monthly fuel bill! With the EnergyRite
2
, 88 cents from each fuel dollar is used
for what is intended – heating water. EnergyRite
2
heats the
pool water faster with energy saving performance.

"Fail Safe" Ignition System
Utilizes hot surface ignition and "Smart Valve" controls for comfort assurance. Hot surface ignition is more reliable than spark or pilot ignition, guaranteeing a heated pool/spa when you need it. And the "Smart Valve" controls optimize performance and efficiency by ensuring the proper mixture of fuel and air for a "Fail Safe" Ignition System.
"Safety-Seal" Combustion Chamber
Completely sealed to keep out wind and ensure safe operation, it also helps to keep out wasp nests, spiders and other pests. And the outer jacket is made of heavy duty galvanized, pre-painted steel – stronger than other heaters in its class!
Heavy Duty, Gasketless Heat Exchanger
Lochinvar's high-efficiency, copper finned tube, gasketless heat exchanger design enhances reliability, durability and performance, while eliminating the leaks and failures common with O-rings and gaskets. And all EnergyRite² heat exchangers are
built to the same ASME* construction standard as large commercial
grade pool heaters.
(*ASME certification is available as an option.)
Simple,
Convenient
Connections
Pipe directly to
the heater with PVC
or CPVC materials
lowering your
installation costs.
The flanged connections
can be easily adapted for either 1-1/2" or 2" pipe, threaded or slip-fit connections.
Remote Control Ready
All EnergyRite² models come equipped
with a convenient 24-volt terminal
strip for fast and easy
connection to optional
remote controls,
purchased separately.
Environmentally Friendly
High efficiency stainless steel burners ensure precise mixture of gas and air for clean combustion and a cleaner environment.
Comfort with Digital Accuracy
The user friendly design allows fingertip access of temperature settings.
Its programming menu guarantees total comfort while providing the ability to switch from pool to spa control.

NOTE: Sizing is based on a 30°F temperature rise. To adjust for other temperature rises divide the time listed in the table by the temperature ratio. Example: for a 15°F temperature rise divide by 2 (30/15=2).
Swimming Pool Sizing
Determine your pool's surface area in square feet.
Determine the desired temperature rise by subtracting
the average air temperature from the desired pool temperature.
In the table below locate the surface area equal to,
or just greater than, your pool's surface area at the desired temperature rise.
Read to the left for the appropriate EnergyRite²
model number.
Spa and Hot Tub Sizing
Determine your Spa/Hot tub's capacity in U.S. gallons
by multiplying the surface area (in square feet) by the average depth (in feet), then by a conversion factor of 7-1/2. (1 ft³ = 7-1/2 gallons)
The table lists the time required (in minutes) to raise the
temperature of different size spa/hot tub's 30°F.
In the table below locate the gallon capacity equal to
or just greater than your spa/hot tub's size in gallons.
Select the desired heat up time.
