Thank
you for posting your question here on Fixya.com.
A 'LO' error code
for a Hayward heater is a limit string open error. If the limit string opens
the heater shuts down and goes into lockout. Automatic restart is 2 minutes
after the error condition is corrected and the limit string closes.
The limit string is
a series of switches designed to turn off the heater if air or water
temperatures exceed a safe operating limit.
The problem may be
faulty a switch(es) but is far more likely to be a system condition the
switches are reacting too that needs to be corrected. Low flow of combustion
air due to obstructions around the heater or the vent; low flow of water
through the heater allowing too high a water temp; Poor venting or sooted-over
heat exchanger causing flame rollout; inlet and outlet hose connections
reversed; these are all conditions that should be eliminated if they exist.
If you are not
familiar with these switches or the conditions described you may want to
consider calling in a professional. Hayward can refer you to someone in your
area who is. Call Hayward at 908-351-5400 or try the website locator found here. It is likely to
still be covered under warranty.
