I wish I had that pool evert winter
I confirmed my documentation says I can wire 120 / 240 (specifically NOT 208vac); but I still don't know. I am 100% certain the pool lights are 120vac as I have replaced them before.
I do NOT have heat pump or electric heater.
I think my Pool equipment has 2 (20 amp breakers) but I also believe I have a pool equipment switch next to all of the equipment that will shut down all power.
So I have 400 BTU Gas Heater, Polaris PB4 Cleaner Pump, and the Pool Pump that I think are all one 20 amp breaker? But I don't know.
I will NOT need the Polaris PB4 Cleaner Pump during a hard freeze so 20 amps is all I will need. With that said, my new pool heater is easy to drain if freeze reoccurs and we have extended loss of power.
