How old is the Laars Lite pool heater?
I have a 175000 BTU Laars Lite propane spa heater. It is about ten years old and was working fine last year. I winterized it by draining it (and the spa) last year. This spring when I filled it up and kicked it on, it won’t stay lit. When the pump comes on, it clicks, I see the glow plug light up and it lights the propane as ot always did.

What’s the problem with my Laars Lite gas heater?
Am new to the forum….I have a laars lite gas heater – about 16 years old. Problem with it is as follows: With the pilot light on, I switch the heater on at the rocker. It starts up for about 10 seconds then cuts out – blows the main burners and the pilot light out.
Is the pilot light on on the Laars Lite 2?
Water flow. My Laars Lite 2 is the one with a pilot light, but the problem may be the same. Mine worked fine the first year. It turned on every time I pushed the switch.
How many millivolts does a Laars Lite burn?
Laars is my least favorite heater. But what you describe probably isn’t the heater but the fact it is a millivolt heater. The pilot flame heats the pilot generator and creates 750 (3/4 volt) millivolts. In the real world its about 500-600. The flame needs to burn clean and hot to do that and of course the generator doesn’t last forever.
