A. CV Standard Kit (VPK-CVSTD)
WARNING
In order to prevent risk of electrical shock, fire, or Carbon Monoxide
poisoning, before beginning the installation of the Jandy Pro SeriesVersa
Plumb Kit, be sure to do the following:
· Turn off all elctrical power, gas supply and other sources of power to the
pool equipment.
· Follow the pool filter’s installation instructions to properly drain the
filter for service.
WARNING
Before restarting the system, consult the installation and operating manuals
for each piece of equipment for proper startup procedures.
NEVER start pump while standing within five (5) feet of the filter. Starting
the pump while there is pressurized air in the system can cause the filter lid
to be blown off, which can cause death, serious personal injury or property
damage.
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 certification body. Read and follow the cement manufacturer’s danger
and cautionary statements and instructions for use.

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 filter using the
sweep elbow with the ½” NPT plug component of the kit, marked as “A” in figure
- This positions the filter.
5. Use CPVC cement and primer and connect the filter to the heater using the straight length of pipe with union nuts on both ends, marked as “B” in figure - This positions the heater.
6. Attach the check valve (marked as “C” in figure 1) to the outlet of the LXiTM making sure the flow 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.

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
off. 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).
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 filter using the
sweep elbow with the ½” NPT plug component of the kit, marked as “A” in figure
2. This positions the filter.
5. Use CPVC cement and primer and connect the filter to the heater using the
provisional solar assembly component with union nuts on both ends, marked as
“B” in figure 2. This positions the heater.
6. Attach the check valve (marked as “C” in figure 2) to the outlet of the
heat pump making sure the flow 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 off.
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 five (5) feet of the filter. Starting
the pump while there is pressurized air in the system can cause the filter lid
to be blown off, which can cause death, serious personal injury or property
damage.
NOTE The check valve and the Jandy valve actuator (shown in figure3) 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).

Jandy® Pro Series Versa Plumb® Kits | Replacement Kit Instructions
3. Install the solar controller (not shown) per the manufacturer’s instructions and connect to the Jandy valve actuator on the Jandy 3-port diverter valve. The Jandy valve actuator must be adjusted to provide the diverter positions shown in Figures 4 and 5 in conjunction with the solar controller.

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 filter using the
sweep elbow with the ½” NPT plug component of the kit, marked as “A” in figure
6. This positions the filter.
5. Use CPVC cement and primer and connect the filter to the heat pump using
the flange tail piece with union nut, marked as “B” in Figure 6. Use CPVC
cement and primer and glue the flange tail piece directly into the standard
tail piece on the heat pump inlet port. This positions the heat pump.
6. Attach the check valve (marked as “C” in figure 6) to the outlet of the
heat pump making sure the flow arrow points in the correct direction.
7. If desired, attach the 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.

6. Plumbing for Pool and Spa
Combination
The following plumbing diagrams illustrate simplified versions of standard
plumbing setups for a pool and spa that share the same filter pump, filter,
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 filter system is shared (a pool/spa combo), the spa water must
be able to overflow 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.
