What is the average life span of a RayPack 266000 Btu Ele Unit with proper care and maintenance?
 Reply

A  Answered on 6/10/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Scott W.

There's a lot of variables, but I've seen people that have had their RayPak heaters from 10-20 years so there's a lot of different variables. I'm not able to say that it's going to last you a specific amount of years.

After the heater runs for a while it goes to #2 fault. What is this and how do we prevent this
 Reply

A  Answered on 10/15/2020 by InyoPools Product Specialist Andy O.

Hello Len- The Fault you are getting sounds like it's the High Limit 2 Fault. This means one of your high limit switches on the heat exchanger is going bad. Raypak states an erratic high limit is often characteristic of an internal heat exchanger problem, e.g. scale build-up, defective bypass. You may need to call a tech for them to be able to identify exactly which one is bad.
