Hello.

I bought a used Hayward h150fdn.

Brought it home and hooked up the gas line and waterlines and fired it up. Fired up perfect. However about 30 seconds later I noticed that the plastic cover was starting to melt on the side so I shut it off.


Opened the top and vacuumed the top of the exchanger clean. Still has same issue. What would cause this? It’s like the flames are TOO hot.

Welcome to TFP.

What is the condition or are you missing the heat barrier panel?
