    What does 'FS5' mean on my Built Right BR135 S7 and how to fix it?
    • A
      April KaneSep 13, 2025
      If your Built Right Swimming Pool Heater displays 'FS5', it means the air temperature is still too cold after five 'FS' signals. Once the air temperature rises above 50°F, press any key on the control. The unit has a built-in one-hour standby mode if no key is pressed. If it remains too cold, the 15-minute FS cycles will resume.

    Why is water leaking from the bottom of my Built Right BR135 S7?
    • K
      Kimberly SnyderSep 12, 2025
      Water running out of the bottom of your Built Right Swimming Pool Heater can be due to two reasons. The heater naturally produces up to 3 gallons per hour of water condensing from the evaporator coil. Alternatively, it could indicate an internal water leak. To determine the cause, shut the heater off for several hours but leave the pool pump running. If water continues to leak, it suggests an internal leak, and further assistance may be needed.

      If your Built Right Swimming Pool Heater control display is flashing “FS” Or “FS1, FS2, FS3, FS4”, it means the air temperature is too cold for the heater to operate. You should wait until the air temperature warms up to at least 50°F. The heater will automatically cycle on for 2 minutes every 15 minutes to check if the temperature has risen sufficiently.

      Rebecca GonzalesSep 7, 2025
      If your Built Right Swimming Pool Heater control displays 'HP, HP3, or HP6', this indicates a water flow restriction, possibly due to a valve restricting flow.

    What to do if my Built Right BR135 S7 control display is flashing 'FLO'?
    • A
      Angela SchwartzSep 5, 2025
      If your Built Right Swimming Pool Heater's control display is flashing 'FLO', it indicates that the pool pump is not on, there's a water flow restriction, or the valve position is incorrect. To resolve this, first, turn on the pool pump. Then, ensure that the skimmer basket, pump strainer basket, and pool filter are all clean. Finally, make sure the valves are set properly to allow for adequate water flow.

    Why is my Built Right BR135 S7 heating slowly?
    • A
      Adam SullivanAug 21, 2025
      If your Built Right Swimming Pool Heater is heating the pool slowly, or the pool isn't reaching the desired temperature, several factors could be at play. Check for low or restricted water flow through the heater. Ensure the filter is clean or replace it if necessary. Inspect and clean the pool pump. Adjust the water valves to optimize flow. Other factors include cold weather, an insufficient pump timer setting, not using a pool cover, high wind speed, or a shaded pool area. Using a pool cover and constructing a windbreak can help. Also, consider setting the pool pump timer for a longer run time. If problems persist, call for service.
