MRANTIFUN TRAINER DISHONORED 2 GENERATOR
The heat from the pilot flame heats two dissimilar metals in a bulb ( thermocouple or pilot generator) next to the pilot to produce the milli-voltage (less than 1 volt) to power the gas valve and control circuit.The pilot generator must be positioned properly, immersed in the pilot flame, to heat up sufficiently to create the small amount of voltage. If you have a standing, always-on pilot light that is manually lit, you have a millivolt pool heater. Your heater will have one of two power sources, line voltage from a breaker box, timeclock or outlet, or milli-voltage that your heater makes on its own. Only if all the safety switches are enabled will the heater turn on, and begin to heat the water. As stated above, the most common issue is water flow, but let’s start from the beginning.Īll heater control circuits run on electricity. This is a simple circuit (think school science fair, with a battery, switch, and light) that goes through a number of safety controls, or checks before the heater is allowed to fire-off. ”The problem lies where the power dies…” All swimming pool heaters have what we refer to as the control loop. There are several types of gas pool heaters for this article, we are focused on gas and propane pool heaters. For more advanced trouble shooting on a pool heater you will need a power meter or multi-meter to check the current as it flows through the various heater components. Check that your filter pressure gauge is normal, that’s a good indicator and proxy for flow rates. A dirty pool filter or pump basket will restrict the water flow, so always ensure that everything is clean and all valves are open. The heater has a pressure switch and an internal bypass, to ensure the correct amount of incoming water flow, before it will turn on. They say that up to 70% of all ‘My heater won’t heat’ service calls are due to low water flow. The most common issue when a swimming pool heater won’t heat is also the simplest one, a dirty swimming pool filter. What do you do when the heater will not fire-off, leaving you with a cold swimming pool? Today we cover the most common reasons why a pool heater will not start up in this heater troubleshooting article. They also can be the most ornery piece of equipment around a pool. Swimming pool heaters are great, they make the water warm and extend the pool season on both ends.
