NOTICE: If your whirlpool bathtub is equipped with adjustable jets, variable speed pump or other flow control system, the pre-set vacuum or pressure switch may not activate the heater if water flow is inhibited. To assure proper heater operation, all jets may need to be fully open and the pump operated at or near maximum flow. Please refer to your whirlpool bath operation manual for additional information.

Once the heater is installed, operation is totally automatic. The heater will help maintain the temperature of the water in the bathtub, or increase the temperature of the water in the bathtub at about two to four degrees Fahrenheit per hour. The heater includes the following components.

THERMOSTAT: The Smart Thermostat requires no adjustment and will automatically maintain the temperature at 102-104 Fahrenheit. If the bathtub is too warm, simply adjust by adding cold water. See Important Safety Instructions.

HIGH LIMIT: The heater includes an exclusive Intelligent High-Limit. This safety circuit will not false trip from hot tap water. It will only turn the heater off if the thermostat fails. To reset, simply press the red button. If the high-limit trips frequently, call a service technician.

INDICATOR LIGHT: The light turns on when the heater is operating.

PRESSURE/VACUUM SWITCH: The heater is equipped with a preset pressure or vacuum switch. The pump must be running with water flowing in the whirlpool to allow the heater to turn on. NOTE: Smaller fractional horsepower pumps may not activate the heater. Contact your dealer for troubleshooting procedures.
