The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy kzread.infoUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!

LO stands for Limit Open, meaning one of the limit switches is not closing to complete the circuit. This could be the water pressure switch, either hi-limit, or the vent pressure switch. It doesn't always mean a water flow problem.

I totally forgot about the low water pressure and backwash. Up and heating again... Thank you :)

I've backwash amd rinsed 3 times since opening pool and still it trips for LO as soon as it tries to fire then after the igniter stops clicking, LO goes away so I'm thinking this is more the signs of a Lead Open situation which requires some diagnosing with a multimeter to see which component is failing and needs replacing

True LO may stand for lock out or low pool temperature. But at the end of the day. My cartridge filters were plugged And I’m back in my pool. Thanks a million !

With the calls I get, I'd argue the number 1 cause is the heater bypass is on, #2 gas is off, #3 dirty filter. Heaters should be serviced often. At least once a year. Spiders love to build webs in the gas orifices. Rodents love to knaw on wiring. Thanks for the video.

How often should you have to backwash and rinse? I feel like it have to do this way too often to get the heater to work.

I had the LO code when I was opening the pool. Everything in manual and comments for this post pointed to Low water flow in the heater or water pressure switch problem etc.. Took off the front panel on the heater. Turned out the company that closed the pool turned off the Gas, using the small gas shutoff knob inside the heater. I thought there would of been a different code, indicating no Gas, but got the LO code. Anyways, when the small gas knob was turned on, heater turned on.

I got the exact same heater installed a couple days ago and I turned it on for the second time today to test it out again. It turned on without any issues, but I got the LO code after putting the heater back into standby mode (I only had it on for max 5 mins). Is this normal? I backwashed 3 days ago and the skimmer & pump are relatively clean.

Was it displaying LO in stand-by mode?

I just got the Hayward 400 gas heater installed. The gas hasn't been turned on yet and I just hooked up the electric to it. Once I flipped the breaker on I got the LO code on the panel. Is this due to the gas not being turned on yet I'm getting my final inspection Monday

If you don't have water running through the heater, you will get the LO code.

My hayward 400k reads lo even when it is off! Is that normal (bypass on)

I currently have my Haward Pump set to pump on high (80%) for 4 hours during the middle of the day to avoid making noise when the neighbors are home. For the remainder of the day, it operates on 40% to be quiet, but still keep the pool circulating water. Am I able to leave the Hayward Heater on pool mode all the time during my schedule? If I understand your explanation correctly, during the low periods, it will just display the LO code and not heat. Then when the pump goes into the high setting, it will kick back on and heat the pool. Will this cause any harm to the heater, or can I leave the heater on "pool" mode all the time and let the pump govern it?

@touchedbythesunpools904

Hello! Thanks a ton for your comment and question. Indeed you can just leave your pump running as it is and leave the heater in POOL mode and it will kick on and off as needed when it has enough water pressure running through it. Keep in mind though however that, when the heater is not running, your pool will cool off and then, when it turns back on, it will start back up. It is always best, at least in our service area of Rochester, NY, to maintain temperature in your pool versus letting it fluctuate significantly.

If you have a cartridge filter then likely your cartridges need to be professionally cleaned. Or potentially your pump and skimmer baskets are plugged up.

Just installed mine and had the gas guys come out today. I got the LO error code. My heater is about 6-8 feet above my pool elevation. Could this be that the pressure switch needs to be adjusted for the negative pressure? If so, how is this done?

@touchedbythesunpools904

3 жыл бұрын

The height of the heater above the pool shouldn't make a difference at all because your pump system runs the whole pool at the same pressure across the board regardless of how high it is installed to an extent. 6-8ft is easily manageable with any properly sized pool pump. Have you made sure your filter is backwashed and rinsed if you have a sand filter or that your cartridges are clean if you have a cartridge filter?

The pool company that installed it is no help and I think from everything I have read they should have installed the chlorinator in the line after the heater. I’ll backwash and see if that corrects it. Now let me read how to do that lol. Thanks for the quick reply

Your pressure switch CAN need to be adjusted to work with different height differences, but usually it is the gas on a new install. How? I see this on lots of new installs, if the gas man checks the gas pressure with the heater not running (static) ,he can not test the column pressure required to run the heater. a good rule of thumb is a column pressure of 7-9 with the heater running 9 at least (Hayward H250 gas heater). static column pressure is not the same with the heater running and therefor can be misleading. I would also recommend adding a galvanized T with a 4" nipple and an end cap, between the regulator and heater as a debris trap. and never use that yellow flex hose agas heater. hope this helps some one.27 year tech Orange Beach, Al

I just tried to start my heater for the first time. sand is brand new, but i did backwash for 5 mins then rinse. Then it did fire then shut down on HS code. My pool is 16X32, 3 ft to 5 ft deep.

Mine was bad, too, right out of the box. It was the pressure switch itself - if I wiggled the spade terminals it would come on. If I let go of the terminal, it would go back to LO. I made sure I had proper flow through the heater. After arguing with the installer (telling me to backwash it, change the DE, etc) I just bought a switch on Amazon. Problem solved.

Or if the Lo code is on and service light is on and the pump is not running"..........that’s normal operation. So don’t waste anymore time. Just run it! So says Hayward and there diagnostic manual. Go figure.....🧐
