Replaced my old heater this spring with a shiny new Hayward H200. And now, less than 10 weeks in use and it’s already leaking. We’ve had a little trouble with water balance this year, but I wouldn’t consider it extreme enough to cause this. That said, I know (based on other posts) this is likely what I’ll hear from Hayward. I have all the test I’ve done so far (thx to the pool math app) and my PH has been at or above 7.2 for the past month. However it was low (6.5 - 6.9) when I first got the heater and filter running this spring.
I understand water balance can cause leaks, but is it really possible that can happen this quickly? I haven’t completely disassembled yet, but the leak is definitely coming from the middle of the unit, somewhere behind the header.
Thanks for reading - and thanks for any help you can provide!
