SAFETY RULES

1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never

exceed 104 °F (40 °C). A temperature of 100 °F

(38 °C) is considered safe for a healthy adult.

Special caution is suggested for young children.

2. 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 beware! Soaking in water

above 102° F. (39° C.) can cause fetal damage

during the first three months of pregnancy

(resulting in the birth of a brain-damaged or

deformed child). Pregnant women should stick

to the 100° F. (38° C.) maximum rule.

4. Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should

check the water temperature with an accurate

thermometer. Spa or hot tub thermostats may err

in regulating water temperatures by as much as

4° F. (2.2° C.).

5. Persons with medical history of heart disease,

circulatory problems, diabetes or blood pressure

problems should obtain their physician's advice

before using spas or hot tubs.

6. Persons taking medication which induce

drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or

anticoagulants should not use spas or hot tubs.

HEATER OPERATION

GENERAL

The Laguna 100K DSI employs a microprocessor

based Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) system to light the

main burner and therefore has no pilot. The ignition

circuit operates at 24 VAC and requires that line

voltage 115/230 be supplied to the heater.

The Laguna 100K MV (Millivolt) requires no external

power source and the control circuit derives all its

power from the energy generated from the standing

pilot/ thermopile-generator combination. Note: Some

states ,including California, have energy

conservation regulations preventing the sale and

use of certain standing pilot (millivolt) equipment.

The Laguna 100K DSI Control utilizes a

microprocessor to continually and safely monitor,

analyze, and control the proper operation of the gas

burner. The DSI Control features LED diagnostics,

automatic one hour reset, and flame current test pins.

The LED is located on the DSI.

CONTROLS OPERATION (DSI SYSTEM)

Heat Mode

1. When a call for heat is received from the thermostat

supplying 24 volts to TH terminal on control, the

control will reset, perform a self check routine, and

flash the diagnostic LED for up to four seconds.

After a brief delay the gas valve is energized and

the ignition electrode begins to spark for the four

(4) second trial for ignition (TFI) period.

2. When flame is detected during the trial for ignition,

sparking is shut-off immediately and the gas valve

remains energized. The thermostat and main burner

flame are constantly monitored to assure the system

continues to operate properly.

a.When the thermostat is satisfied and the demand

for heat ends, the main valve is de-energized

immediately.

OPERATING (CONTROLS)

DIRECT SPARK ELECTRONIC AND

MILLIVOLT MODELS

For convenience and economy all Laguna 100K

heaters are equipped with a thermostat on the front of

the heater control panel; see Figure 5.

Direct Spark Laguna 100K heaters are equipped

with an electronic thermostat while Millivolt Laguna

100K heaters have a mechanical thermostat.

The Pool/Off/Spa switch allows the heater to be turned

off when heating is not desired.

1. "ON" position - Maintains selected pool temperature.

2. "OFF" position - Heater will not come on regardless

of drop in pool temperature.

THERMOSTAT ADJUSTMENT

The knob with locking feature eliminates the need for

constant thermostat adjustments. Set the knob pointer

to the desired spa temperature.

NOTE

To eliminate error due to piping heat losses

measure pool temperature with an accurate

thermometer directly at the pool or spa.

If further adjustment is needed rotate the knob until the

desired temperature is obtained. This knob position

corresponding to your desired maximum pool or spa

temperature may now be preset (locked) by the knob

stopper which prevents the knob from being turned

beyond the maximum temperature you set.

THERMOSTAT KNOB STOPPER

Each thermostat is equipped with a mechanical stop

that can be locked or unlocked with use of a screw-

driver to prevent temperatures in excess of that

desired by the user; see Figure 5.

The maximum setting can be adjusted by loosening

the screw "A" and turning the stopper dial to desired

maximum setting. Lock the setting by tightening the

screw. The Mechanical stop is under the knob.

Ensure that the knob is stopping at the correct posi-

tion when the knob is rotated clockwise from a lower

temperature position.

the control will go into lockout and the valve will be

turned off immediately.

2. Recovery from lockout requires a manual reset by

resetting the thermostat or turning off the ON/OFF

switch for a minimum period of 5 seconds.

IMPORTANT!

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT NO MORE THAN

TWO IGNITION ATTEMPTS IN SUCCESSION

BE PERFORMED FOR NATURAL GAS

SYSTEMS . BEFORE FURTHER IGNITION

ATTEMPTS WAIT AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES

FOR GAS TO CLEAR.

FOR PROPANE (LPG) SYSTEMS ALLOW AT

LEAST FIVE (5) MINUTES BETWEEN IGNITION

ATTEMPTS FOR THIS HEAVIER-THAN-AIR

GAS TO SAFELY DISSIPATE. AFTER TWO

UNSUCCESSFUL IGNITION ATTEMPTS WITH

PROPANE OPEN THE BURNER ACCESS

DOOR AND WAIT AT LEAST THIRTY (30)

MINUTES BEFORE REPLACING DOOR TO

ATTEMPT FURTHER IGNITION ATTEMPTS.

NOTE

Normally the heater will light in the first or

second attempt. And with the exception of

a new installation or one that has been

shut down for an extended period, where

there is considerable air trapped in the gas

supply line, unsuccessful ignition

indicates other problems with the ignition

system - such as an unclean ignition

electrode impeding flame sensing.

3. If the thermostat is still calling for heat one hour

after a lockout the control will automatically reset

and attempt to ignite the burner again.

Flame Failure-Re-Ignition

1. If the established flame signal is lost while the

burner is operating, the control will respond within

0.8 seconds. The H.V. spark will be energized for a

trial for ignition period in an attempt to relight the

burner.

a. If the burner does not light the control will de-

energize the gas valve, shutting off the gas flow,

and the control will go into lockout as described

above in “Failure to Light-Lockout”. If flame is

re-established, normal operation resumes.

Control Fault -Diagnostic LED Conditions

Error Mode LED Indication

Internal Control Failure Steady on

Flame Sense Fault 2 flashes

Ignition Lockout 3 flashes

The DSI Ignition Control can be accessed after removing

the heater’s front control panel. The diagnostic LED

located on the top of the DSI control will flash on for 1/4

second, then off for 1/4 second during a fault condition.

The pause between fault codes is 3 seconds.

Proper Electrode Location

Proper location of the ignition electrode assembly is

important for optimum and safe system performance.

The electrode assembly should be located as noted in

Figure 6. The electrode assembly is NOT field

repairable and must be replaced if damaged.

Service Checks

Symptom Cause/Cure

1. Dead A. Miswired

B. Transformer bad

C. Fuse/circuit breaker open

D. Bad control (check LED for steady on)

2. Thermostat on, A. Miswired

no spark B. Bad thermostat no voltage @

terminal TH

3. Valve on, no spark A. Shorted Ign. electrode

B. Open HV Ign cable

C. Miswired

D. Bad DSI control

4. Spark on, no valve A. Valve coil open

B. Open valve wire

C. Bad control (also check voltage

between V1 & V2)

5. Flame okay during A. Bad electrode

TFI, no flame sense B. Bad S1 or HV wire

(after TFI) C. Poor ground at burner

D. Poor flame (check flame sensor

current, which follows)

Operation - Heater (contd.)

Flame Sensor Current Check

Flame current is the current which passes through

the flame sensor to ground. The minimum flame

current necessary to keep system from lockout is 0.7

microamperes. To measure flame current, connect

DC microammeter to the FC- FC+ terminals as

shown in Figure 7. The meter should read 0.7

microamperes or higher when the heater is firing.

Maintenance

It is recommended that you check the following items

at least every six months and at the beginning of every

swimming season.

1. Examine the venting system. Make sure there are

no obstructions in the flow of combustion and

ventilation air.

2. Visually inspect the main burner and the pilot

burner flame (on millivolt models). The normal

color of the flame is blue. When flame appears

yellow, burners should be inspected and cleaned;

see Figure 8.

3. Keep the burner area clear and free from combus-

tibles and flammable liquids.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

1. If possible, keep pool or spa covered when not in

use. This will not only cut heating costs, but also

keep dirt and debris from settling in the pool and

conserve chemicals.

2. Reduce the pool thermostat setting to 78°F. or

lower. This is accepted as being the most healthy

temperature for swimming by the American Red

Cross.

3. Use an accurate thermometer.

4. When the proper maximum thermostat settings

have been determined, tighten the thermostat knob

stopper.

5. Set time clock to start circulation system no earlier

than daybreak. The swimming pool loses less heat

at this time.

6. For pools that are only used on the weekends, it is

not necessary to leave the thermostat set at 78 °F.

Lower the temperature to a range that can be

achieved easily in one day. Generally, this would

be 10° F. to 15° F., if pool heater is sized properly.

7. During the winter or while on vacation, turn heater

off.

8. Set up a regular program of preventative

maintenance for the heater each new swimming

season. Check heat exchanger, controls, burners,

operation, etc.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

SPRING AND FALL OPERATION

If the pool is being used occasionally, do not turn the

heater completely off. Set the thermostat down to

65°F. This will keep the pool and the surrounding

ground warm enough to bring the pool up to a com-

fortable swimming temperature in a shorter period of

time.

WINTER OPERATION

If the pool won't be used for a month or more, turn

the heater off at the main gas valve. For areas where

there is no danger of water freezing, water should

circulate through the heater all year long, even though

you are not heating your swimming pool. This heater

should not be operated out doors at temperatures

below 32° F. (0° C.). Where freezing is possible, it is

necessary to drain the water from the heater. This

may be done by opening the drain valve located at the

inlet/outlet header allowing all water to drain out of

the heater. It would be a good practice to use

compressed air to blow the water out of the heat

exchanger.
