B.1 Piping and Valve Connections to
the Solar Stub-Outs
IMPORTANT
To avoid potential hazard to the user, the United
States Consumer Products Safety Commision has
determined that the temperature of the water at
the INLET to a pool or spa must not exceed 122°F
(50°C).
NOTE: The water in a spa should never exceed
104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F
(38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered safe for
a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are
recommended for young children and when spa use
exceeds 10 minutes.
Solar collector panels MUST drain down completely
when the circulating pump is o. To allow this,
the solar collector panels must be installed at an
elevation higher than the pool surface, and the
solar collector panels MUST be provided with an
automatic air relief/vacuum-breaker valve at the top
of the collector panel(s).
NOTE The check valve and the Jandy valve actuator
(shown in gure3) are not included in the CV
Solar Versa Plumb Kit.
1. Install a check valve and piping (see Figure 3).
2. Install the Jandy valve actuator onto the Jandy
3-port diverter valve (see Figure 3).

1. Position the pool suction and return lines in front of
the equipment pad location.
2. Position the various equipment pad components.
Bring the suction and return piping up through the
perforated holes on the template.
3. Connect the pump to the suction lines (pool only or
pool/spa combo) using CPVC cement and primer.
The length of pipe into the suction port of the pump
should be a minimum of four (4) times the pipe
diameter.
4. Use CPVC cement and primer and connect the
pump to the lter using the sweep elbow with the
½” NPT plug component of the kit, marked as “A”
in gure 2. This positions the lter.
5. Use CPVC cement and primer and connect the lter
to the heater using the provisional solar assembly
component with union nuts on both ends, marked as
“B” in gure 2. This positions the heater.
6. Attach the check valve (marked as “C” in gure 2)
to the outlet of the heat pump making sure the ow
arrow points in the correct direction.
7. If desired, attach a salt chlorinator spool or a blank
spool assembly provided in this kit to the check
valve and then run the return line from the spool to
the trench using CPVC cement and primer.
NOTE Also included in the Versa Plumb Kit are two (2)
additional 3-way valves and a spare 12” of pipe
for your use in the event that you add additional
components on the return system.
WARNING
To prevent equipment damage and/or scald
hazards to the user, only solar collector panels with
automatic air relief/vacuum breaker valves should
be used. Solar collector panels MUST drain down
when the circulation pump is o.
Read all manufacturer’s equipment installation
instructions and safety information before
installation, testing, or operation of the system.
Release all air from the system before testing.
Water pressure for test must not exceed 35 psi.
Water temperature for test must not exceed 100°F
(38°C).
NEVER start pump while standing
within ve (5) feet of the lter. Starting
the pump while there is pressurized air
in the system can cause the lter lid to
be blown o, which can cause death,
serious personal injury or property
damage.
