Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What elevation is the Raypak P-R206A-EP-C #59 designed for?

The Raypak P-R206A-EP-C #59 is factory-configured specifically for installations between 3,000 and 5,000 feet elevation. The included #59 high-altitude orifice setup helps maintain proper propane combustion and safe operating performance in reduced-oxygen environments.


How many BTUs does this Raypak pool heater produce?

This model delivers 266,000 BTU of heating power, making it suitable for many medium to large residential in-ground pools and spas requiring dependable heating performance.


Is this a propane or natural gas pool heater?

The P-R206A-EP-C #59 is designed specifically for propane gas (LP) operation and is not configured for natural gas use unless professionally converted according to manufacturer guidelines.


Does this heater use a standing pilot light?

No. This heater utilizes Electronic Intermittent Ignition (IID), meaning the pilot activates only when heating is needed, helping improve fuel efficiency and reduce propane consumption.


Can this Raypak heater connect to pool automation systems?

Yes. The Raypak Digital series is compatible with many major two-wire and three-wire automation systems, allowing remote heater control and automated temperature management.


Is this heater designed for outdoor installation?

Yes. The Raypak P-R206A-EP-C #59 is specifically engineered for outdoor residential pool and spa installations and includes a weather-resistant powder-coated cabinet for long-term durability.


Is the heater resistant to windy conditions?

Yes. Raypak’s low-profile fan-free cabinet design helps maintain reliable operation in windy outdoor environments while minimizing operational noise and reducing debris intrusion.


Does this heater have digital controls?

Yes. The digital microprocessor thermostat allows precise water temperature adjustments and continuously displays operating temperatures and diagnostic information.


Is this heater compatible with saltwater pools?

Yes. When proper water chemistry is maintained according to manufacturer recommendations, this heater can be used in saltwater pool systems.


Why is a high-altitude pool heater necessary?

At higher elevations, thinner air contains less oxygen, which affects fuel combustion efficiency. High-altitude-configured heaters use specialized burner orifice sizing to maintain proper fuel-to-air ratios for safe and reliable operation.


Does the heater include self-diagnostic features?

Yes. The onboard diagnostic system continuously monitors operation and displays service and fault codes to simplify troubleshooting and maintenance.


What materials help protect against corrosion?

This heater includes a Polytuff powder-coated galvanized steel cabinet, polymer resin headers, and stainless steel tube sheets to help resist rust, corrosion, and chemical wear in demanding pool environments.
