Bought our house a couple of years ago and have been running the pool unheated since then. This is manageable in summer here in SoCal but going into the winter it's time to do something about it.
The existing pool heater is not in a functional state (see attached pic below). It is a Pentair Minimax NT which seems to be an obsolete model, so repair of the corroded components appears to be difficult if not impossible.
So the best plan of action seems to be a like-for-like replacement with a newer model.
I'm interested in any recommendations for on models/brands as I begin to engage with local suppliers.
Ideally the new heater should have a similar footprint/requirements to what is already there so we can fully leverage the existing infrastructure, which is otherwise in pretty good working order.
