Raypak Millivolt Plus Natural Gas Pool Heater | P-R266A-MN-C #52

Extend your swimming season with the reliable performance of the Raypak P-R266A-MN-C Natural Gas Pool Heater. Part of the Millivolt Plus series, this 266,000 BTU unit is designed specifically for pools located at high elevations between 6,000 and 8,999 feet. It utilizes a standing pilot ignition system, which means it requires no external electricity to operate—making it an ideal choice for remote locations or areas prone to power outages.

The R266A model is built with a focus on durability and thermal efficiency. By combining high-quality copper heat exchangers with corrosion-resistant polymer headers, Raypak has created a heater that handles the high-altitude environment and pool chemicals with ease. This high-altitude specific model ensures that the air-to-gas mixture is perfectly calibrated for thinner air, preventing soot buildup and ensuring peak performance.

Features

Non-Electric Millivolt Ignition: This heater generates its own small electrical current using a thermopile heated by a standing pilot light. This allows the heater to function entirely independently of your home's electrical grid, offering reliable heating even during a blackout.

High-Altitude Calibration: Specifically jetted and configured for altitudes between 6,000 and 8,999 feet. Standard heaters often struggle in thin air, leading to inefficient combustion; this unit is factory-tuned to maintain its BTU rating and efficiency in mountain environments.

Corrosion-Resistant Polymer Headers: The headers are manufactured from a high-strength polymer material that is naturally resistant to the corrosive effects of pool water. This design prevents rust and scale buildup, ensuring a smooth flow of water and a longer lifespan for the unit’s internal plumbing.

Integral Fin Copper Tube Heat Exchanger: The copper tubing is made from a single piece of extruded copper, which maximizes heat transfer from the gas flames to your pool water. This robust design is highly efficient and provides excellent resistance to thermal stress and fatigue.

Polyester Powder-Coated Cabinet: The heater is housed in a heavy-gauge galvanized steel cabinet with a non-corrosive polyester powder-coated finish. This ensures the unit remains protected against the elements, including snow, rain, and the intense UV rays common at high altitudes.
