I have a 4800 gallon container pool that was installed level with the ground so my mechanicals are below ground. Well, we got a bunch of rain last week and that room that is kept dry by a sump pump was flooded. The sump pump cannot keep up, since then I have installed a stronger sump pump along with two other back ups, which can pump water on my back up generator until earth doesn’t have water any longer. Which should solve the flooding issue, hopefully.
My issue is that after I took everything out, dried everything, and reinstalled, everything is working aside from my intellicenter (which is fried I’m assuming) and my heater. I disconnected the automation from the pump and connected the heater wires at the switch on the intellicenter thereby bypassing automation, or at least that’s the goal.
I can get my pump back on and the heater to turn on. Heater panel lights up, blower turns on (it louder then before, should I lubricate this anywhere?) and I can hear the tick of the ignitor. I tested the ignitor for power and receive about 45 volts when it calls for ignition. I also tested the ignitor and have about 80 ohms so I think that’s ok. I tested the prongs to the right of the on/off switch of the valve and got about 5v, but I don’t think I’m getting gas because I can’t smell any in the exhaust.
Where do I go from here? I’m guessing either the gas valve needs to be replaced or maybe the air flow switch? The heater is only a year old. Don’t beat me up for being an idiot and installing a container pool below ground please. Worst idea ever. The heater blower, manifold, and gas valve were removed to dry fyi. The gas line was also drained since it was filled with water. Pool breaker was replaced as well.
Thanks!
