NO ONE PUTS MORE INTO THEIR POOL HEATERS
Introducing the Raypak Professional series pool heaters, designed specifically for commercial
properties such as apartments, condos, hotels, motels, schools, parks, community and high-end
private pools. It’s also the perfect heater for tough coastal weather conditions where salt air
challenges durability. When your reputation is on the line every day, you’ve got to work smart and
come prepared with strength, experience, and the guts to lead the way. In a word, it demands a
Raypak Professional series pool heater.
PROFESSIONAL HERITAGE
Built by a company dedicated to water heating and refined
through more than six decades of year-round demanding use in
commercial boiler rooms, Raypak heaters embody the durability,
longevity and flexibility that the true pool Professional expects.
Many of the Professional pool heater features come directly from
our commercial boiler experience. This knowledge and
experience is unmatched in the pool heating industry.
TOUGH AND LEGENDARY DURABILITY JUST GOT BETTER
MICROPROCESSOR
control is more precise than
mechanical systems. It
controls temperatures for pool
and spa settings and stores
diagnostic information for
service technicians.
HEAT EXCHANGER
with brass headers and cupronickel tubes for maximum
protection against the
toughest pool applications.
Excellent for salt chlorine
generated pools.
CUPRO-NICKEL FIN TUBE
is at the heart of the Raypak
Professional series heater. The
competition doesn’t stand a
chance against its fat .065
tubing walls. Raypak also uses
integral fin tube, meaning it’s all
one piece of material.
STAINLESS STEEL
is used liberally through-out the
Professional series pool heater.
Raypak spared no expense to
ensure that any area that could
be compromised by harsh
environments would stand the
test of time.
BURNER TRAY
constructed entirely of
stainless steel. Every detail
has been looked at, down to
every nut and bolt, and made
of stainless steel. This burner
tray is built to last.
SPARK TO PILOT
is the most reliable and safe
ignition system in use today. For
over 30 years Raypak has
enjoyed reliable performance
with a gas pilot system. Some
things just don’t get any better.
CONDENSATION DEFENSE
has been a Raypak tradition for
over 45 years. We utilize our
Unitherm Governor system
along with a spring loaded
bypass to maintain the perfect
flow through the heat
exchanger.
FLOW SWITCH AND T&P
are standard equipment on the
Raypak Professional. This
makes the unit 50 state ASME
compliant right out of the box.
Also, having a flow switch
eliminates pressure 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.
ATTENTION TO DETAIL
was the main goal in designing
the Professional heater. Every
aspect was evaluated and
changed to stainless steel
when any question of corrosion
was a concern.
ROBUST BURNER
design is Raypak’s speciality.
The Professional series heater
can withstand fluctuating and
varying gas pressures. The
burner is self-adjusting and
always yields a perfect flame.
WARRANTY
The Raypak Professional is
unmatched in warranty for
commercial applications: Three
years parts and labor and
additional 2 years parts on the
heat exchanger years four and
five. We stand behind what we
believe in.

A DIGITAL CONTROL SO SOPHISTICATED, YET SO SIMPLE TO USE
Microprocessor-Controlled Thermostat
The Raypak Professional gas heater is
equipped with a microprocessor-based
control. This control allows you to set your
your preferred setting just by pressing an up or down temperature
control button. The digital display tells you
when the water is being heated and notifies you when your target temperature has
been reached.
Self-Diagnostic

In yet another industry first, the Raypak

Flame Strength Indicator
Raypak leads the way with the first
control in the pool industry to monitor and measure the pilot flame
signal. Known for our high quality,
leading edge commercial boilers, it just made sense for
Raypak to use this existing commercial technology on our
residential pool heaters. This little tool is a service tech’s
dream. Raypak also uses this function on the end of line
test, making sure every heater leaves with a robust flame
signal.
On Board Voltmeter
The Raypak Professional monitors
the low voltage electrical supply.
This helps ensure the heater is
wired properly during installation.
The heater will also let you know if the voltage has dropped
too low to function properly. No
other pool heater takes care of you
like a Raypak.
THE MOST ROBUST AND FORGIVING BURNER EVER INVENTED
Stainless Steel Burners
Burner design is a critical component in any gas heater. The stainless steel burner system
used in the Raypak Professional is inherently forgiving and extremely robust. The burner
is self-adjusting to compensate for gas pressure fluctuations, meaning the burners will always burn clean and safe. Only Raypak delivers you a pool heater that can withstand wide
daily gas pressure fluctuations and keep on burning clean. This burner design is the cornerstone of Raypak’s gas-fired products, this same burner has been a part of in our products for over 50 years. It’s nice to know that on commercial applications that share a
common gas line, the Raypak Professional will run perfectly no matter what the load demand on the total system is.
Smooth Light Off
The slow-opening gas valve ensures smooth turn-on; no “Hard Light” to worry about. The
easily removable burner tray and pilot assembly make service and maintenance a simple
task. Every component of the burner is stainless steel, except for the powder coated gas
manifold.
Pilot Ignition
The Raypak Professional uses a spark-to-pilot ignition system. This is the most reliable
and robust ignition system available–an industry proven standard for well over 30 years.
THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE RAYPAK PROFESSIONAL
Rust-Free Waterways
Raypak has applied its years of commercial boiler experience to the design of the 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 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 Professional comes standard with cupro-nickel fin
tube heat exchangers 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. Cupro-Nckel 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.
Condensation Reduction
Both water temperature and flow rate inside the heater are controlled to help eliminate condensation, sooting and scale buildup
that can shorten the life of a heater. Raypak engineered the Unitherm Governor specifically for pool heater applications, regulating low-temperature incoming water to help reduce condensation. The built-in automatic bypass helps prevent scaling and
erosion by balancing the flow going into the heat exchanger.
Brass headers and Cupro-Nickel tubes -standard
THE MYSTERY OF ASME UNCOVERED
The Raypak 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.
That’s why Raypak is the only pool heater manufacturer to supply a flow switch
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?
