    Help! Getting ready to replumb my system....

    I'm installing a new heater and a new pump/motor (vs). I've got everything I need but couplings going in and out of the filter.

    I'm re-laying out my plumbing to replace major worn out parts.........

    I'm putting in a Intelliflo and a new Raypak heater this fall and am laying out the piping etc so I will have all the parts I need to do the job in a day, hopefully. With the intelliflo variable, I need to put it at an angle so as to get a straight pipe into the inlet as opposed to an elbow...

    Pentair Intelliflo pump/////moving the controller to wall...........??????

    I finally found something that YouTube does not cover. Shocking. How to mount the keypad of a Pentair Intelliflo pump on a wall. They have a kit that varies in price from 35-75 bucks.

    My backflush valve leaks now and was thinking of trying to fix it our cut it out and not have one, as I do not back flush anymore. This is with a de filter. Also I really hate cleaning the de filter (8 blades) as it is a bioch to clean and put back together without the seal at the split...

    Replacing RayPak NG water heater..........

    I have a RayPak water heater that is about 12-14 years old and does not ignite. I took off the covers and assessed that it may not be worth the effort to fix. It is the largest of the 4 RayPaks that are sold in the 2100 series, 400k btu. They make a 206, 266, 336, 399k btu unit for natural...

    I have the RayPak 2100 Digital NGas (P-R405A-EN) and it came with the house 11 years ago.....and was probably 5 years old when we got it. So 16 years I guess, but now it has lost its spark, I think . No ignition and it says SPK 22. So now I'm wondering if the life of the heater is at its end...
