Product Overview
The Raypak Hi Delta P-992C 016088 is a commercial-grade natural gas pool and spa heater with a 990,000 BTU input and factory Cold Water Run protection. Designed for demanding commercial aquatic applications, the Hi Delta combines fan-assisted combustion, a cupro-nickel heat exchanger, digital controls, and integrated diagnostics in a durable ASME-rated platform.
The Cold Water Run system is designed for applications where return-water temperatures can remain below the heater’s preferred inlet temperature. It continuously regulates inlet water temperature to help protect the heat exchanger against damaging condensation while allowing the heater to deliver its full heating capacity.
Key Features
