See Figure 17.NSF ® is a registered trademark of NSF International.5.6 Pressure Relief ValveA pressure relief valve (PRV) is recommended inall <strong>installation</strong>s, <strong>and</strong> is m<strong>and</strong>atory in any <strong>installation</strong>in which the water flow can be shut off b<strong>et</strong>ween theheater outl<strong>et</strong> <strong>and</strong> the pool/spa.A pressure relief valve is not supplied with the<strong>LXi</strong> heater. However, it is recommended that a pressurerelief valve be installed <strong>and</strong> may even be requiredby local codes. Be sure to check any applicable<strong>installation</strong> codes in your area to d<strong>et</strong>ermine wh<strong>et</strong>hera pressure relief valve is required. See Section 11.2(Parts List) of this <strong>manual</strong> for the appropriate kit partnumber.The maximum working pressure of this heater is75 psi. Be sure to take into consideration the maximumallowable pressure of the other components in the systemwhen selecting a PRV. Any pressure relief valveinstalled must comply with provisions of the st<strong>and</strong>arddescribed in ANSI Z21.22 for the United Sates or CSA4.4 in Canada.Follow these steps to install a pressure relief valve.1. To protect the threads while drilling, screw thebrass adapter (included with the <strong>J<strong>and</strong>y</strong> PRV kit)into the blind threaded hole on the top of theinl<strong>et</strong>/outl<strong>et</strong> header.2. Using the countersink in the center of the blindhole as a guide, drill a ¼" hole through the plastic.See Figure 18.3. Open the hole by reaming it with a ⅜" drill bit.4. Open the hole again by reaming it with a ½" drillbit.Figure 18. Drill Hole for Pressure Relief ValvePRESSURE RELIEFVALVE HANDTIGHTEN ONLYRUBBER WASHERFigure 19.
