Have a Pentair MiniMax 400 heater for 20 years. It still works but we hardly use it for the pool because we have solar. Now, I have a small water leak on the outside large water flange and the bolts are rusted. It’s where the two water pipes go in and out of the heater.
I’m afraid to try and loosen it for fear of braking the bolt, then what? Anybody have any ideas to removing/softening the rust prior to trying to remove the bolt?
