gas heater

Hi - "Just the facts, ma'am..." ;) My brother has a 10,000 gallon uncovered shaded pool at his personal and rental home in Mexico with a Pentair Intelliflo VSF pump, Hayward Pro Series 3.1 sq.ft. sand filter and a 480 sq.ft. roof-mounted solar hot water array three stories above the pool. The...

This is my first pool; I have a rectangle pool, about 18,000 gallons, including the spa. From what I can tell, it's an older system, and the heater is disconnected from the plumbing. 18,000 Gallons, Pool (32' x 14', depth 6' & 4'), Spa (8' x 5', depth 3') is where I came up with the Gallons. I...

Hello - We purchased a Jandy JXI400N gas heater and are getting conflicting information from different electricians on what is needed to wire the electric. The initial guy were were working with planned to tie into the timer box that we have. After connecting the plumbing for it, he had some...

Hello, I have yet another dreaded Hayward IF error. I feel like I have tested and replaced just about every component in this heater over the last couple years. This is a H300FDN that is about 11 years old. I replaced both control boards two years ago. So far I have verified the Ignitor is...

Hopefully somebody can help me. For years the Raypak was the recommended heater. However, now that I'm in need of a replacement the Raypak info on here states that the author will no longer install these heaters due to a manufacturing issue until Raypak fixes the issue. The info was written 9...

I have an old unheated pool in the coastal area of San Diego. I'm planning to add heating, but have to decide what type of heater is most cost-effective. Pool size is about 15,000 gallons and there is no spa. Temperature runs between 50-75 deg throughout the year and humidity averages around...

Hello Everyone, Some mice got into my water heater. They chewed up alot of wiring and I did a pretty good job patching it all up but I get no display on the control PCB. The system goes through a fenwal ignition system. The PCB does look like it has minor corrosion and no LEDs light up. Any help...

Hi - I'm in Maryland, looking to add a heater to our 29k IG pool. I have natural gas, but have been told the pressure is insufficient, and I'll need to upgrade to 2PSIG as well as a new meter. Looks like it's gonna be: ~ $5,000 for the Gas & Electric companyto run a new line to the house, and...

So I know heating a pool cost a lot, but If these calculations are within this range it might be ok. I'm in northern california. our natural gas is provided by PG&E. I checked my bill and found that we pay $1.36 cents to $1.89 per therm, up from 92 cents – $1.40 in 2012. In addition, there is a...

This fall, we have had several issues with the pool - a busted (now repaired) pipe, and now we have found that a rat had moved in to the heater and started causing issues. I was able to identify and repair/replace a chewed hose and some wires on the stack flue sensor. The rattling was there...

I have a Sta-Rite pool heater that won't start and the Service System light is on. The heater is about 8 feet below the hot tub and the water is flowing when the pump is running. There are no other indications as to what might be wrong. When the pump is running it shows my set temperature...

Hi Guys I am really struggling here to find a place to install my pool equipment. The pool contractors are going to start digging in a few weeks and I don’t have any place to put the gas pool heater. The gas technician says it needs to be 10 feet away from any window or opening. I don’t have a...

Good morning. I have an OmniLogic panel and pump with a Hayward natural gas heater. The omnilogic was installed last summer, and I absolutely love it ever since I hardwired the internet connection. The issue I'm having is that the heater does not force a call for the pump to turn on. I only...

My Hayward H250FD gas heater was working perfectly until all of the sudden there was a strong smell of gas. Trying to get it going and it goes through the motions as normal trying to start but just won’t. It’s not giving me any error codes and the service light isn’t on. I’ve only been in...

Hi, I have a small in ground pool ... maybe 12-14k gallons. It was built a long time ago and we have no idea how old it is. But I suspect it is quite old. It has one skimmer and two returns on a 1.5" pipe. The pool equipment is very far from the pool, thanks to someone in the past having...

I have a new-to-me Hayward “H series” H-200 natural gas heater (millivolt). I opened this weekend and can’t get the unit working properly. I was having trouble with the pilot light and eventually got it lit with the help of a friend. When it’s lit it is very faint. Can hardly even see the flame...

Greetings all! With the recent events, and having the fam stuck here at the house nearly ALL THE TIME, we decided we'd add a gas heater the pool so we can open a bit earlier and enjoy more swim time this season (and hopefully many to come). There was a heater previously installed, but this was...

My Laars Lite Teledyne Laars model LLD natural gas heater seems to be running normally at some times. The pilot starts and it runs for a decent 8 minutes and then suddenly shuts off. My guess is that one of the sensors is automatically shutting it off, but the water flow is fine and there does...

Purchased a house February 2019 that has a pool. Pool guy that I had come out to inspect the equipment said the heater control panel was broken. I finally get around to fixing that and low and behold it's not broken! But once the heater fires up, tons of noise and significant vibration in...

I’ve had a brand new Pentair Mastertemp 125 installed. The board comes on, then I hear the blower. It tries to light several times then sometimes it will eventually turn the service heater light on. While trying to light several times, I will smell some gas. I’ve tried to bleed the line from...

I have a Minimax 400 pool heater and I can't get the power light on the board to light up. I'm getting 26 V out of the transformer to the board (orange and white wires), I assumed it was the board, order a new one, and am getting the same thing on the new board. No power light. When I tested...

Hi all- I've got some time at home now with self-isolation, so I'm working on my pool equipment. My 8-year-old Mastertemp 400 won't stay lit. It's not throwing any diagnostic codes- the burner fires, but it smells bad like it is not burning right, and it even sounds wrong (deep rumble- more...

Hey experts, When I turn my mastertemp 400 onto spa mode. It will run for about a minute then turn on a HLS error light. After maybe two minutes light will go off and it will go through the same process again. This issue first started with an E05 error message. I came to this forum to start...

Turn the heater on fan turns on then immediately goes to service mode. Water flow is good, gas pressure good, changed board, changed air flow switch still goes to service light immediately. Any ideas.
