Hello and thanks in advance for reading. We are 1.5 seasons in on our Heyward H135 Natural gas heater. Up until a few weeks ago the return water was extremely warm. We have a fountain feature that if you stood beneath it it felt like a hot shower. Now the water is not as bad as "luke" warm but no where near the temps it once was. This seemed to just happen overnight with no gradual loss. I am at my wits end trying to figure out why this is not as efficient as we are used to. and ready to call in help "gasp" My trouble shooting is as follows. I'm starting to wonder if the bypass valve is passing or if the gas regulator needs adjustment. I do not have the pressure gauges to run water column pressure tests although I don't know why this would need adjustment all the sudden.
1. No error Codes thrown and fires up no problem
2. Complete disassemble of heat exchanger for visual inspection. No Deposits noted and water was free flowing from hose through the tubes
3. Complete disassemble of the burners , gas line header and orifices- no spider webs fouling or scale build up on burners ETC
4. no gas leakage at any of the hard pipe gas line joints tested via Windex bubble method
