Excelent video!! Thanks for sharing.

very helpful and easy to understand ...

Very helpful information

Thanks for the video it was very informative. My question is I would like to run my Sum 4 with a variable speed water pump, but the water pressure switch is triggering a “low flow” error and won’t engage the heat. I’m thinking of replacing it by a digital programmable water pressure switch which would allow me to program a pressure range for it to close and engage the heat. Obviously it can’t be too low ‘cause I don’t it to overheat, but what do you think? Or do you have any suggestions?

super informative and helpful! perfect use of the term fuckery also!! thanks

Great video, my unit can't start the fan alone, I have to help it. Is it possible that the capacitor is the problem?

great video......my hay/summit xl140 is not sending signal to contractor coil.....not low on r410a, lp and hp and Flo all ohm out, no codes.....replaced board and contactor, ...when I turn it on, everything seems fine,,,,after 3 min, the flame indicators appear but does not energize the contractor coil......unit is less than 2 years old.....is there anything in the board setup I need to look at? I went through the setup as best I could...is not setup for remote etc. when I manually energize the contractor, comp runs and A/C grades react normally

Thanks! very useful and complete!

Great video, will help me look for the issue on my Summit. Any tips of what I should look at first? I get an F5 error code but it's not cold outside at all. The compressor starts but the fan doesn't?

you're getting the FS because the compressor is running and the fan is not dissipating the cold out of the unit. It could be a capacitor could be the fan relay in the board or it could be the fan. Since this was from three months ago im assuming youve already made the repair or replacement

If the fan is blowing cold air then the condenser coil must be pumping out heat to the water... These thermopump units are slow and can take a good week to get a large size pool up to temp. Especially at the beginning of the season.

I have a 3 year old just out of warranty Hayward HP21404T that has an issue. The other day it was not heating and panel read “Lo Flo”. It was shut off until today and when I turned it on it is now reading “HP”. I have read what the code means but didn’t know if you might have an idea based on age of unit. So far every Hayward component has failed and this was the last item with a problem but sadly now it’s out of warranty.
