Raypak Avia 264K BTU Natural Gas Pool Heater - NiTek Heat Exchanger - P-R264A-EN-N | 018063

The Raypak AVIA is not just a heater; it’s a total reimagining of pool technology. Featuring the revolutionary NiTek™ heat exchanger and integrated Wi-Fi, the AVIA is designed to be more durable, more efficient, and easier to control than any traditional gas heater. The P-R264A-EN-N model is a Low NOx unit, making it environmentally friendly and compliant with the strictest air quality standards (like those in California and Texas). With its compact, lightweight design, it provides 264,000 BTUs of power in a footprint that is significantly smaller than comparable models.

Features

NiTek™ Shield Technology: The AVIA comes standard with NiTek coating on the heat exchanger. This cutting-edge nickel plating provides a 300% increase in corrosion resistance compared to standard copper, making it the ideal choice for salt-water pools and environments with fluctuating water chemistry.

Integrated Wi-Fi & Smart Automation: The AVIA features built-in Wi-Fi and the Raymote™ Mobile App, allowing you to control your pool and spa temperature from your smartphone. It also includes an on-board Protek Shield for added protection against electrolysis.

Low NOx Emissions: Engineered to meet the most stringent environmental regulations. The AVIA's combustion system burns cleaner and more efficiently, reducing nitrogen oxide emissions while maintaining high performance.

Compact & Lightweight Design: Weighing under 140 lbs and featuring a small, square footprint, the AVIA can be easily moved by one person and fits into tight equipment pads where traditional heaters cannot.

Intelligent Flow Monitoring: The AVIA is the only heater in its class with a built-in "Protection Mode" that monitors water flow. If it detects a flow issue, it will alert you via the app to prevent damage before it happens.

Service-Friendly Design: Features a large, easy-to-read digital touchscreen display and a "swing-out" control box for easy access to internal components, significantly reducing maintenance and installation time.

Versatile Installation (0–4,500 ft): Factory-configured to operate at peak efficiency from sea level up to 4,500 feet, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of geographical locations.

Notes

Modern Connectivity: While the AVIA is a standalone heater, its integrated smart features allow it to act as a hub for your equipment pad. It can control your pool pump and lights directly through the Raymote app, potentially saving you the cost of a separate automation system.
