Alsteadironw,

All these type heaters (Reddy, All Pro and Master heat) were made by DESA international.

I have a tip at http://www.fixya.com/support/r4124129-yearly_maintenance_reddy_heaters which explains this common problem, where to get the repair parts and how to do the repair.

Thanks for using FixYa and for the great rating. Please consider a testimonial. Thank you.

Hi. I have a Hayward H350FDN pool heater that is Doing this: • Turn on and Temp at 65 • On for 3 1/2 min then shuts down • Restarts and then on for 5 min, shuts down • Restarts and then on for 2 min,...

it almost sounds like the temperature sensor is in the wrong place. that or the flow is inadequate for the heater to run. if you have a sand filter, put it on 'whirlpool' or 'recirculate' and try to run the heater.

1986 sca wolff 328sl tanning bed wont stay running

Consult manufacturer. You can track that down online. You may have a over-temp switch inside the bed. If so, then either the switch is bad or the bed is getting too hot. Have a trained technician to check voltage going to bed, if voltage is wrong that can cause bed to overheat. Make sure all fans are running, replace any fan that is not running. Clean all dust out of bed with vacuum and brush while you have it open.

Ac unit runs, inside blower shuts off after 2 mins, compressor continues to run, t-stat still calling for cool

My central AC unit decided to stop on the hottest day of the year. It would start and run normally for a few minutes and then the blower would shut off. After checking the breakers, thermostat and overflow shut off (did not have one) I saw something about a blower motor capacitor. This was easy to get to and replace and my last hope before waiting for someone to come fix it. The capacitor cost $4.04 with tax and had my AC working again. Needless to say I was beyond happy. I hope this can help others with a similar problem.
