Pool Heaters Repair

For the home, kitchen and beyond, Hayward manufactures appliances that homeowners have come to trust. Even a trustworthy appliance requires occasional maintenance or repair, however. If you’re in need of Hayward appliance repair from experienced professionals, your local Appliance Helper can help.

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. 

Examine Power Sources 
If you do not see an error message and instead, your pool heater just shuts off immediately after or shortly after turning it on, then this can be an indication of a power issue. In this case, you will want to check your power sources and connections to make sure everything is as it should. Checking the breaker, resetting the unit, and going over connections is the step you will want to take. 

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 actually warmer. 

Check Your Outdoor Temperature Settings 
With some pool heat pumps, if it is not warm enough, the heater will not run and keep up the water. There are different types of pool heaters, including gas and electric heaters, that will work just fine during cold weather, though some operate better than others. Some heat pumps can operate under low-temperature environments, with some running smoothly as low as 30 degrees. But with many units, once you dip below 50 degrees, the pool heater will not be as effective at doing its job. Typically, it needs to be at least 60 degrees out in order for your pool heater to function the best way possible. 

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 in order 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.

Finally replaced our hold Hayward heater after 15 years (it actually exploded, otherwise, we'd probably still be using it). This is a great replacement, seems to heat a little faster than the old one. A little smaller. The only thing I wish that Hayward had done was not to change the layout of the connections. Had to replumb and redo gas line.

Purchased in Sept. 2016, had to replace the heat exchanger once, but we were not sure if it was too much water flow, or chemical imbalance. But, this unit heats my 33,000 gallon (DE filter system) very quickly, and reliably. The regional rep (Greg) was very easy to deal with and made the experience more understandable as far as issues and made replacing the heat exchanger a fair and straightforward one. Just a word of caution - overly high water flow into the heater can and likely will cause the coils to deteriorate, and this can happen in less than a year. So, be sure your pool pump is sending a reasonable flow through the system (you can call Hayward for details) as well as balancing your chems. The replacement heat exchange assembly costs about $1,100 (plus $200-400 for labor), so replacing can approach the cost of an entirely new heater.

Bought this to replace an old broken rusted out Hayward H400IDL that was about 15 years old. My old heater seemed to breakdown every 3 months or so. I’m hoping this one will be more reliable. The installation wasn’t to bad I did it myself but the biggest negative was when I called Hayward and they told me the H400FDN was an exact replacement that wouldn’t need plumbing adjustments to fit but that wasn’t the case both the water and gas connections had to be reworked to line up. Nothing to difficult but it required a trip to Lowe’s to get everything working. Overall it seems like a good heater although it doesn’t look like the picture shown on amazon? the control panel is completely different then what is shown. Also don’t forget to register online for your warranty and apply for a rebate with your local gas company I got an extra $300 off with a rebate from SoCalGas.

We have a standalone spa with this 200,000 BTU gas heater. To me, this is superior to the typical electric heated self-contained systems because it heats cold tap water to 104 degrees in about 30 minutes in our 250 gallon spa. In CA, gas is cheap compared to electricity for heating. With an insulating cover, we get in and run the heater for only 6 minutes to get from 94 to 100 degrees. That way, it's not scalding hot when you get in, but cranks up fast.
