Abstract
An integrated heater and control system for a pool or spa is described, and includes a housing structure. A heater assembly includes a burner and a heat exchanger, and is disposed within the housing structure. An electronic control system is mounted within or on the housing structure for controlling the heater assembly and pool or spa functions. In one exemplary embodiment, the control system distributes line voltage power and low voltage control signals to one or more external devices, such as a heater circulation pump and a valve.
