Folks,

I'm up in Dallas trying to heat my brother's pool up so I can dive it to check for water leaks. He has a 25 year old Laars Lite 325 LLD heater that has a failed pressure switch. It is shorting to ground internal to the switch and leaking through the switch housing. When bypassed the heater works fine. The manual lists 3 replacement switches and I can't figure out which one it was since the old one is so old I can't read any of the writing. The 3 listed are:
1 psi
2 psi
1-10 psi

Does anybody know which one we need? I'm guessing it's the 2 psi R0013200 and not sure it's really that critical. The switch that's in there doesn't seem to be a 1-10 psi variable switch from appearance.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I don't think it will make a big difference in the safety if you put in a 1 psi switch versus a 2 psi pressure switch.

@swamprat69 may have ideas.
 
That's exactly what I was thinking. There is a "fine tuning" adjustment anyway that we can perform and test for positive function by turning off the pump momentarily while the unit is running.

Thanks much for the reply Allen!
