How to set the temp on a Hayward pool heater?
I can set the temp via the digital panel on the heater. When I turn the thing on, it starts up a fan (whirling noise) and then I can smell gas, there is a click, and then the fan slows down. After a few seconds, the fan/blower starts up again and the cycle repeats.
Why is the ignition not working on my Hayward pool?
When the tech was out, he stated that there wasn’t any problem with the gas, just the ignition thingy not getting spark where it is supposed to be due to spider webs clogging/blocking the spark from reaching the gas. I’m going to start tearing this thing apart when the weather clears up later on this week.
