WARNING
FOR YOUR SAFETY - ONLY the plumbing pieces in the Versa Plumb kits as shown in gures 3, 4,
and 5 are intended for “do it yourself” (DIY) homeowner installation. Any pool equipment such as
heaters, lters, pumps, etc. must be installed and serviced by a contractor who is licensed and quali-
ed in pool equipment by the jurisdiction in which the product will be installed where such state or
local requirements exist. In the event no such state or local requirement exists, the service provider or
maintainer must be a professional with su󰀩cient experience in pool equipment service and maintenance
so that all of the instructions in this manual can be followed exactly. Before installing this product, read and

instructions may result in property damage, serious injury, or death. Improper installation and/or operation
will void the warranty.
WARNING
These instructions address the installation of the Jandy Pro Series Versa Plumb Kits only. In order to pre-
vent risk of electrical shock, carbon monoxide poisoning, explosion, or re, which could result in property
damage, serious injury or death, installation and servicing of any pool equipment other than the Jandy Versa
Plumb Kits must be done only by a contractor who is licensed and qualied in pool equipment by the juris-
diction in which the product is installed where such state or local requirements exist. In the event no such
state or local requirement exists, the service provider or maintainer must be a professional with su󰀩cient
experience in pool equipment service and maintenance so that all of the instructions in the specic products’
manual can be followed exactly.
These instructions are to be used with the following Versa Plumb Kits:
VPK-CVSTD -- CV Standard, Versa Plumb Kit
VPK-CVSLR -- CV Solar, Versa Plumb Kit

WARNING
In order to prevent risk of electrical shock,
re, or Carbon Monoxide poisoning, before
beginning the installation of the Jandy Pro
SeriesVersa Plumb Kit, be sure to do the
following:
• Turn o󰀨 all elctrical power, gas supply and
other sources of power to the pool equipment.
• Follow the pool lter’s installation instructions
to properly drain the lter for service.
WARNING
In order to minimize the possibility of ingesting
potentially toxic substances which could cause
injury from illness, including death, whenever
the instructions call for the use of “CPVC
cement”, use a cement that has been listed by
NSF®or an equivalent Nationally Recognized
Testing Laboratory (NRTL) or certication body.
Read and follow the cement manufacturer’s
danger and cautionary statements and
instructions for use.
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.
Before restarting the system, consult the
installation and operating manuals for
each piece of equipment for proper startup
procedures.
WARNING
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 1. This positions the lter.
5. Use CPVC cement and primer and connect the lter
to the heater using the straight length of pipe with
union nuts on both ends, marked as “B” in gure 1.
This positions the heater.
6. Attach the check valve (marked as “C” in gure
1) to the outlet of the LXi™ 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.

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).

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

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

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.

6. Plumbing for Pool and Spa
Combination
The following plumbing diagrams illustrate simplied
versions of standard plumbing setups for a pool and
spa that share the same lter pump, lter, and heater.
The intake and return JVA’s turn simultaneously so
when the spa button is pressed on the AquaLink®RS
control panel, water circulation switches between pool
and spa (consult the Jandy Valve Actuator Installation
and Operation Manual to ensure that the JVA’s are
synchronized and rotate properly). Please consult the
Jandy Valve®Plumbing Manual for further examples of
pool/spa plumbing.
NOTE When the lter system is shared (a pool/spa
combo), the spa water must be able to overow
back to the pool.
WARNING
Flow rates must never exceed the manufacturer’s
flow maximums for any suction fittings or skimmers.
Additional fixed adjustment valve(s) or flow restrictors
may need to be installed. Exceeding manufacturer’s
recommended flow rates may cause serious personal
injury or death.
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.
