This heater is new and I have been using it with the intelliconnect automation system.
I had no issues initially, now I seem to have nothing but issues.
The first issue was the computer kept telling the heater to turn off perhaps a faulty temp reading, so I bypassed the computer and I am controlling it manually which did work for a bit, but now when it turns on at say 83 degrees, the heater goes to 90 and thinks the pool I swarmer than it is.
Additionally, the heater was starting and shutting off 2-3 times per minute and throwing a red light for "system" when the heater turns on the service heater light comes on briefly, and then it runs.
No LEDs on the back of the board are lit.
I spoke with Pentair, and have done the following.
1)Test that the gas supply is in range, it is about 8 WC, and the load drop is only about 2
2) Tested the impedance on the igniter it is in range (if a little hight) they said 45-75, it is 75
3) removed the igniter to inspect it, no cracks
4) looked at the insulation in the igniter hole, seems ok.
Not sure where to head next on this, I did wonder if the heater was getting enough water flow, and increasing it yesterday by setting the pump to 2600 seemed to work, but it won't work today given the heater and computer both think the water temp is higher than it is.
I have ordered a GPM flow meter and a new pentair sensor for the computer but now with the heater also reposting bad temps, I am at a loss.
Nay issues with mice in these heaters, I do not see any wire damage but there are some droppings inside.
Any other test that I can run or things I should check?
Thanks in advance.
