Pool heater connection issue

[PoolDoc]

Hm-mh. I overlooked something important. Timers are not commonly used on pools in much of the Southeast, and I forget things that I haven't often had to deal with.

Anyhow, heater's have thermal safety's that SHOULD shut the heater off, if the pump is off. But it's not good to depend on that.

If your Jandy unit does not automatically turn off the pump BEFORE turning the heater off, you'll need to put a flow switch in series with the Jandy control unit, so if flow is low, the heater cannot fire.

It does shut the heater off if the filter pump turns off and cannot turn on without the ump being on.

Thanks again

PoolDoc,

Thanks for all of your help and advice. You confirmed what I thought and now the heater is controlled by the Jandy and works like a charm.
