Raypak Digital 300K BTU Propane Pool Heater - ASME Cupro Nickel - B-R336A-EP-X | 017413
The heavy-duty, commercial-grade heating solution for demanding environments. The Raypak B-R336A-EP-X is an elite heating unit engineered specifically for public pools, swim schools, and luxury residential projects that require ASME-certified equipment. While your product title mentions a 300,000 BTU capacity, it is worth noting that the 336A ASME series actually delivers a robust 332,500 BTU output. This provides the true high-capacity heating power needed for large-scale liquid propane installations.
The 017413 model replaces the older 010212 unit, bringing modern upgrades to a proven platform. Equipped with premium Bronze Headers and a Cupro-Nickel heat exchanger, it is built to survive aggressive water chemistry and continuous, high-volume operation where standard heaters would easily fail.
Features
ASME Certified Bronze Headers: To meet rigorous commercial building codes, this model features heavy-duty bronze headers. Bronze provides superior structural strength to handle high-pressure systems and is naturally resistant to the corrosive effects of commercial pool environments.
Professional-Grade Cupro-Nickel Heat Exchanger: Constructed from a premium copper-nickel alloy, this heat exchanger is built to withstand the erosion and corrosion common in saltwater pools and high-use commercial facilities. It offers a significantly longer service life than standard copper under constant operation.
Robust 332,500 BTU Heating Power: Providing massive thermal lift, this propane unit delivers rapid heat-up times for oversized residential pools or mid-sized commercial spas. It ensures your water reaches the perfect temperature quickly, even in cooler climates.
Microprocessor-Controlled Thermostat: The intuitive digital display allows for precise temperature management and features a constant self-diagnostic readout. It is fully compatible with most modern remote automation systems for easy control of your heating schedule.
Fuel-Efficient Electronic Ignition: Features a reliable spark-to-pilot ignition system that only lights when there is a call for heat. For propane users, this eliminates the fuel waste of a standing pilot light and prevents blow-outs in windy or exposed outdoor conditions.
ProTek Shield Technology: Includes a specialized, replaceable module designed to protect the heat exchanger from the damaging effects of galvanic corrosion (electrolysis). This is a critical second layer of defense for saltwater or heavy-use pool systems.
Non-Corrosive Cabinet Construction: Housed in a polyester-coated, galvanized steel cabinet that is both UV-resistant and weather-proof. Its wind-resistant, low-profile design ensures uninterrupted heating performance regardless of falling leaves, wind, rain, or downdrafts.
