Hi everyone we have this Titan electric pool heater that we were using for 2 months now and we had a heavy rain storm since then our heater just turns on for 5 minutes and blows the fuses and turns off....weve tried rewiring it we new wire but still the same....we emptied all the sand filter clean it all out and still the same we have lots of pressure but dont know what to do anymore ????
Electric pool heater blows up my fuses
- Thread starter Wham26
- Start date
Blowing fuses is indicative of a short on the electrical side. It is doubtful the filter or water pressure has anything to do with it. My fist guess would be a bad heating element, but that is just a guess.
Are these actual fuses that are blowing, or circuit breakers tripping?

So the heater is only two months old?
Were you running the filter in bypass mode at all?
Is the pump running properly?
What is the filter pressure?

Without knowledge of all your equipment, it is really hard to help: Pool School - Read This BEFORE You Post

There are heat pumps, which have a compressor and work like an AC unit and then there are electrical heating element type heaters. Is there a model number on the heater?
If it is a heat pump, it may just need servicing for the coolant but it could also be a bad compressor.
What is the circuit size you have the heater on?
