The eco-conscious, compact heating solution for modern backyard pools and spas. The Raypak P-R207AL-EN-C delivers a reliable 206,000 BTU output using an advanced digital electronic ignition system and a specially engineered combustion chamber. This "Low NOx" model is specifically designed to meet strict state and local air quality regulations—including those in California and Texas—by significantly reducing harmful nitrogen oxide emissions.
Combining environmental responsibility with legendary mechanical reliability, this natural gas heater provides efficient heat-up times for smaller residential pools, above-ground setups, and standalone spas. Equipped with a standard copper heat exchanger, it delivers consistent, everyday performance while keeping your backyard's carbon footprint to a minimum.
Ultra-Low NOx Emissions: Built with a forced-draft combustion system, this heater burns natural gas much cleaner than standard atmospheric models. It is fully certified to meet the strictest environmental codes across the United States, making it legally compliant for installation in highly regulated areas.
Microprocessor-Controlled Thermostat: The intuitive digital display allows you to set your pool and spa temperatures independently to within one degree. The system also features constant self-diagnostics to alert you to any operational issues, making troubleshooting fast and simple.
Reliable Electronic Ignition: Features a robust spark-to-pilot ignition system that only lights when there is a call for heat. This eliminates the gas waste of a standing pilot light and ensures the heater remains highly efficient and functional even in high-wind conditions.
Standard Copper Heat Exchanger: Built with high-quality integral copper fin tubes, this heat exchanger provides maximum heat transfer and an impressive 82% thermal efficiency. The single-piece polymer header design ensures smooth water flow and minimizes the risk of internal leaks.
PolyFlo Integrated Bypass: Raypak’s patented bypass design balances the water flow through the heat exchanger automatically. This prevents condensation and scale buildup, protecting the heater's internal components from premature wear.
ProTek Shield Technology: Includes a specialized, replaceable module designed to protect the heat exchanger from the damaging effects of galvanic corrosion (electrolysis), providing a critical layer of defense for the unit's most vital parts.
Non-Corrosive Cabinet Construction: The heater is housed in a polyester-coated, galvanized steel cabinet built to resist rust and UV fading. Its wind-resistant design ensures the internal components stay protected even in exposed or coastal outdoor environments.

Notes
Professional Setup Required: To ensure safety and validate the manufacturer’s warranty, this natural gas heater must be installed by a licensed HVAC or pool professional. Because it is a Low NOx unit, it relies on a built-in blower motor for forced-draft combustion, requiring precise electrical and gas line connections. Proper venting and clearance are critical for safe and efficient operation.
