Long time lurker, first time poster.
I have an old Jandy Lite 2 heater (natural gas, 250K btu) for my inground pool and spa; the heater needs to be replaced (its from 2004 and doesn't owe me a darn thing - the least I can do is to give it a decent burial).
The heater currently comes on when the spa is turned on (via the air button on the spa deck) and senses the flow of the water via a Grid Controls flow switch. I can manually turn the heat on (for the pool) by heading over to the heater and pressing POOL when necessary.
I assume the Raypak heater I am looking at buying (Model 014939 - NG, electronic ignition with cupro-nickel exchanger and poly headers) can do the same thing, but, per the Raypak manual, it looks like it might be remote operation or nothing.
I am perfectly fine with automatic operation for the spa and manual operation for the pool and have no desire to automate anything or buy fancier controls (yet...). Will the Raypak support this?
Thank you all in advance for any advice!
