Hayward 1 12 Hp Super Swimming Pool Pump Sp2610x15 - Page 9 Questions & Answers
Why does my hayward heater have a if error code
the code is IF. it stands for ignition failure.
If the control exceeds the maximum number of ignition retries or recycles the heater will shut down and go into lockout. Automatic reset is 60 minutes.
Heater is smoking
when heater is cooled, remove top and clean out debris. if there is no debris, the color of smoke will indicate problem. white: condensation, rainfall etc burning off. black: burner not firing properly and sooting up. have unit serviced - clean burner assy, verify adequate gas pressure
Hayward 100 pool heater shaking
Not enough water flow!
Either a
- bypass valve is open all the way, and reducing water flow into heater
- Worn/broken internal bypass - unitherm governor
- Blockage of some sort reducing water flow, in circulation line
When something like the above is present, the minimal water flow, gets super heated really fast when heater is on and firing! So hot in fact, that the water turns to Steam Instantly!
and the steam is a very Volatile substance! Remember? It was once used to move Locomotives!
get this fixed asap!
call a pool / spa professional for assistance in evaluating your next step.
Good Luck.
How to install a rocker switch
Hi, this is John the Hayward tech. Can you tell me if this is a heater or pump and which model. A picture would help me help you.
Solenoid pool pump
pool pumps have a start capacitor, not a solenoid. if you plan to change this yourself, BE CAREFUL. there is enough electricity to give a horrible shock. also, make sure to replace it with the exact same capacitor (written on the capacitor). most businesses that sell them will usually test the suspected faulty unit at no charge
My hayward heater (brand New) keeps going into IF mode Why
IF means ignition failure make sure gas supply is correct pressure make sure heater is wired correctly usually if wired 120 volt you have to change wiring to accomidate that voltage if wired correctly and is 120 volt reverse black and white wires
What does this mean Hayward pool heater h150FDN gives us an hs or h5 error?
HS = High Limit Sensor
Heaters Maximum Water Temperature has been Exceeded.
A few reasons this occurs...
- Low water flow thru heater, check :
- Dirty Filter
- Opened By Pass Valves
- Plugged pump impeller
- Dirty/Full baskets at skimmer or pump
- Anything that may reduce water flow
- Sensor could actually be doing its job, in a different aspect, Thermostat failure, and water is overheating in spa or pool?
But anyway, your heaters fault code you asked about is: hs, not h5
