Is the rollout switch on my Raypak 156 open?
I have a Raypak 156 heater on my spa powered by propane. I replaced the rollout switch, but it opened again after a few uses, suggesting the switch was doing its job properly.

What does BD1 mean on a Raypak heater?
The panic really doesn’t set in until you realize error code BD1 means absolutely nothing to you. Error codes are both curses and blessings.

Just imagine how much easier it would be to diagnose diseases if humans came with error codes.)
