Examine Error Codes 
If you find that your power heater turns on but then keeps shutting off, this could indicate that you are having water pressure issues. Your first step would be to take a look at any error codes that might be displayed. 
If you see error codes, including “Lo/Hi” or “Flo,” then this is usually an indication that your pool heater is not getting enough water. Reasons that your pool heater may not be getting enough water include filter issues and pressure issues. 

Check The Filter 
If your pool heater is not getting enough water, then this could cause it to be faulty. Pool heaters rely on a steady stream of water to operate properly, and when this is interrupted, you will start to run into issues. To make sure that your pool heater is getting enough water, you need to check your filter. If you have a dirty filter with a lot of blockage, this will keep your pool heater from receiving an adequate amount of water. 
When checking your pool filter, make sure that you empty the skimmer and the pump baskets weekly. This will keep build-up from happening. Also, make it a point to keep the filter media clean as well. Lastly, you want to make sure that you’re running your pump for at least 8 hours. 

Check The Power 
When you are working on troubleshooting a pool heater, one of the most common culprits is the power source. Sometimes the fix can be as simple as making sure the pool heater is plugged in properly. 
Check to make sure that your pool heater is properly connected to the power source and that there are no electrical connection issues. As you inspect, keep a close eye on damaged wiring and take a look at the breaker to ensure that the pump is getting enough power to operate. 

Check The Temperature Settings 
Most pool heaters are incredibly temperamental when it comes to the temperature you set it at and the outdoor temperature. If your pool heater is not set to a high enough temperature, then it may not appear to be working (though it’s working just fine). 
Ensure that the pool heater’s thermostat has a higher temperature setting than the current water temperature of your pool. This way, the water being pumped in is warmer. 

The Pilot Light 
First check the pilot light – does it ignite? If not, it could indicate that the gas pressure is low, the heater isn’t venting properly, or the air getting to the heater isn’t great. If the pilot light is working, make sure the heater is turned on and the gas valve is in the “on” position. 

Leaks 
Sometimes, the chemicals used to clean your pool water can cause damage to the heat exchanger. It could just be a loose connection that you need to tighten or colder winter temperatures, but you may also need to replace the heat exchanger. 

Exhaust 
If your pool heater is pumping out dark exhaust, it could be building up way too much heat when it’s running. If this is happening, check the gas pressure and make sure your heater is venting properly. 

Rust 
Remember how I said your pool chemicals can cause damage to the heat exchanger? Well, those chemicals can also cause your heater to rust and corrode. You’ll want to replace those corroded parts to prevent any further damage.
