My pool guy was just here today and he offered the following suggestions when he fixed my teledyne heater (paraphrased): If the heater isn't getting enough water flow through it, it will stop. If you open up the heater panel on the bottom, there is a round thing on the left with a small round center. There are a few wires coming off of this. This is a safety device that senses if the lines are getting water in the heater unit. If you look at the middle of this knob looking thing there is a slot. He turned the slot (looks like a standard screwdriver slot) counter clockwise (as if to loosen it). That did the job for mine. Also, it could be some sort of clog in a line preventing the heater unit from getting adequate water flow. He warned me NOT TO open the screw thing too much, after all it IS a safety feature. If it doesn;t work don;'t loosen it too much. Also, the thing goes off when I run my Polaris filter.

Before you start adjusting something you absolutely know nothing about:

Have you cleaned the filter lately? When was the last time the filter was serviced? When was the last time the heater was serviced? That screw looking device is for one specific type of problem and in almost all cases will not apply to your specific heater problem.

Would the thermostat or a limit switch cause a Teledyne Larrs series 1 EPG 250 heater not to stop heating after the pilot assembly and pressure valve have been replaced?

Do you mean that the heater will not shut down either by turning the thermostat down or turning the switch off. If turning the pump off will not shut down the heater it could possibly be one of the high limits or the gas valve has failed in the open position. If the heater will not fire when calling for heat then one or more components has failed. k

Why is a 1992 Dodge caravan getting little heat after changing the thermostat?

Possible air lock in the heating pipes. Common after changing thermostat. look for a bleed screw on the heating pipes between the engine and interior, or loosen one of the heater pipes., after engine has warmed up. Run engine to dislodge trapped air.


Why does the air coming from your home air conditioner vents smell like stale smoke but not when your heater is on in a duplex where the other family smokes?

This has much to do with how the air conditioner and the heater is vented. If the air conditioner draws its air from outside it could be picking up air / smell of smoke from the other family and then redistributing it into your home. A heater on the other had usually has a heater input vent within the house it is heating (it draws the interior air in and then heats it blowing it back out) as the air within the home will be significantly warmer than the exterior air.

Why does a teledyne laars pool heater fire but does not generate hot water?

Assuming the heater is running properly, is sized correctly the filter is clean it could possibly mean that the run time for the pump is not sufficient. How long is the filter/pump running? The water returning to the pool may not feel "hot" to the touch and shouldn't. Ken

How can you contact Teledyne Laars to get a manual for an LLG heater?

I cannot find a current listing for Teledyne Laars. As far as I can tell, Teledyne and Laars separated, Laars joined up with Waterpik and then got reorganized under Jandy. www.jandy.com now has the Laars Lite2 line of pool heaters with the LG model almost identical to the Teledyne Laars LLG. You can access the manual at http://www.jandy.com/pdfs/H02359-.pdf . Jandy also has a parts list for older discontinued models.


Why would a Teledyne Laars heater thermostat allow you to light pilot light but not allow you to turn it on?

Have you rotated the gas valve knob to "run". Have you turned up the thermostat? Is the pump running? No pump water flow - no heat -- no filtration. Is the filter clean? When was the last time you cleaned the filter? Ken


Why does the Teledyne laars pool heater not come on?

There could be several reasons why a Teledyne Laars pool heater is not coming on. Common issues include a tripped circuit breaker, low water flow due to a dirty filter or blocked pipes, or a malfunctioning thermostat or ignition system. Additionally, check for any error codes displayed on the control panel, as these can provide specific guidance on what might be wrong. If troubleshooting does not resolve the issue, it may be best to consult a professional technician.
