How to fix sooting in Raypak 130A?
- C
  cheyennehernandezAug 17, 2025
  Sooting in your Raypak Swimming Pool Heater can be caused by several factors. High flow rates can cause sooting; reduce them by adding a manual bypass valve and adjusting it until the heater outlet water temperature is between 105°F and 110°F. Air starvation can also lead to sooting; refer to the installation instructions. Improper venting may be the cause; follow the recommended installation instructions. Finally, insects or debris clogging the burner intake ports can cause sooting; clean the burners.

Why does my Raypak 130A take so long to heat the pool or spa?
- W
  William WyattAug 26, 2025
  Several factors can cause your Raypak Swimming Pool Heater to take too long to heat your pool or spa. It could be due to an undersized heater, in which case you should calculate the heating capacity of your heater: Htr. output(BTUH). This calculation does not account for heat loss due to weather. Other potential causes include the filter not running long enough (reset the time clock), a dirty filter (clean the filter), an undersized gas line or meter (refer to installation instructions), or debris in the gas line (remove the debris or blow out the gas line).

Ensure the water level in the pool is adequate and raise it if necessary. The external bypass setting might be out of adjustment, so adjust the bypass. Also, the pressure switch could be improperly adjusted; in this case, adjust the pressure switch.
