I had a pack rat chewing a way in my Pentair MasterTemp gas heater. He completely chewed off the wires to the Stack Flu Sensor. I have ordered the part but it will not come in until after Labor Day. I have renters coming in for the next week and you like to have them be able to use the spa.
I am not sure of the purpose of this sensor but I assume that if the flu is to hot the sensor will open and turn off the heat. Could I loop the end with a piece of wire keeping the circuit closed? This would be a short time and the only heating that will be done is the spa and then for probably an hour at a time.
If that will not work is there anything I can do to use the unit while I wait for the part.
