PLUMBING CONNECTIONS
are included for a complete

DIRECT SPARK IGNITION
High voltage spark provides a

rectification are provided by the
spark electrode and built-in
sensing probe.
DIRECT VENT CAPABLE
The 84 Professional o≠ers true
application flexibility. Flue
exhaust can be vented up to 80
feet without the use of an
extractor. Inlet air can be
ducted through 4” steel or PVC
tubing.
FLOW SWITCH, T&P and PRV
This makes the unit 50 state
ASME compliant right out of the
box. Also, having a flow switch
eliminates possible “false” water
flow issues from elevated pools.
WIRING SHEATH
is standard construction on all
exposed wiring. This helps
prevent rodent damage and
other associated issues that
can damage the wiring. Not to
mention it looks very clean and
tight.
84% EFFICIENCY
The 84 Professional is listed at
84% thermal e∞ciency. This
provides the highest e∞ciency
in a non-condensing appliance.
The 84 Professional is also low
NOxcompliant in all 50 states.
ROBUST BURNER
Our single burner design
provides 360° of smooth and
stable combustion. The all
stainless steel burner is built to
last and operates precisely with
as little as 4”w.c. of supply gas
pressure.
WARRANTY
The Raypak Professional is
unmatched in warranty for
commercial applications: Three
years parts and labor. We stand

INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY
Multiple Venting Options
The 84 Professional offers the most venting options of any
gas pool heater on the market today. The unit is shipped
from the factory in an outdoor top-vented configuration, but
can be top or rear vented for indoor or outdoor installations.
The heater can also be installed with 4” PVC or metal pipe
duct to bring fresh combustion air from outside the equipment room. This is absolutely the perfect solution when
chemicals are stored in the equipment room.
Multiple Plumbing Options
Another industry first from Raypak - 4 possible water connection configurations. Not only do you have right handed
and left handed options, but now you have through-the-cabinet options as well. You can place the heater in series with
your equipment plumbing. The clean, straight piping eliminates or reduces the number of elbows needed, offering
you the lowest possible pressure drop. The 84 Professional
comes with all of the necessary CPVC plumbing fittings to
hook up to your 2” PVC system piping.

THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE RAYPAK 84 PROFESSIONAL
Rust-Free Waterways
Raypak has applied its years of commercial boiler experience to the design of this new brass header. A metal header
design allows for the higher working pressures required by ASME. Only after the material meets the stress analysis and
metal composition tests is it approved for use in an ASME unit.
ASME Cupro-Nickel Fin Tube
The Raypak 84 Professional is designed
specifically to meet State and local code
requirements for public pools and commercial applications. The heater is equipped
with a thicker walled fin tube allowing it to
meet the ASME requirements. The Raypak
84 Professional comes standard with a
cupro-nickel fin tube heat exchanger for
added protection against aggressive water
chemistry. Although rare, there are certain
applications, like health club spas, where
copper is just not the best choice. Cupronickel offers superior tolerance to bad and
fluctuating water chemistry, thanks to a
harder surface and a thicker walled fin tube.
Cupro-nickel has also shown superior corrosion resistance in salt chlorine generated
pools.
Brass header and Cupro-nickel tube-standard
THE MYSTERY OF ASME UNCOVERED
The Raypak 84 Professional heater
comes standard as an ASME stamped
unit. Raypak has state inspectors on-site
daily performing inspections for our pool
heater and commercial boiler production
that require ASME. Being in the boiler
business for over 60 years truly makes
Raypak the leader for your commercial
needs. Why ASME? Most local codes require that public pools, pools that are in
condominiums, apartments, or other
commercial applications, be in compliance with ASME Section IV.
On-site state inspectors
ASME
stands for
group which sets many industrial and manufacturing standards. A pool heater
that is made to ASME standards must conform to a set of specifications as
determined by ASME, specifically in relation to the operating water pressure
the appliance can handle. Each and every ASME heat exchanger that goes
into a Raypak Professional heater is inspected by a state inspector to make
sure it complies with ASME Code for pool heaters.

That’s why Raypak is the only pool heater manufacturer to supply a flow
switch, PRV and T&P gauge standard with every Professional series gas
heater under 400MBTU. We know what it takes to make a unit 50-state ASME
compliant right out of the box. Does your heater company make sure all the
little details are taken care of like Raypak does?
