Professional installation required. Confirm heater sizing, gas supply, electrical connections and venting before ordering. Remote operation requires compatible Pentair automation; an optional bypass kit is sold separately.
Fuel and heater sizing
This is the natural gas configuration. Confirm that your supply matches before ordering. Gas-heater BTU input is the fuel input rating; usable heat output also depends on thermal efficiency. Pool volume, starting water temperature, desired warm-up time and heat loss determine the capacity needed.
Installation requirements
A qualified installer should confirm gas-line capacity and pressure, electrical supply, water flow, equipment clearances and installation altitude. Indoor installations need the correct manufacturer-approved venting arrangement. Check the existing pad and plumbing connection positions when replacing another heater; matching BTU size alone does not guarantee a direct fit.
Complete the installation
Site-specific gas fittings, electrical work, venting accessories and installation labor are separate. For remote control, verify the listed interface and any required network or automation hardware. Maintain the manufacturer's water-balance targets and keep the circulation system in good condition to protect the heat exchanger.
Compatibility & installation
Check the exact model and the specifications above before ordering. For equipment and replacement parts, confirm the required voltage, connections, dimensions and compatibility with your existing system.
