Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Raypak Avia?
Avia is Raypak's connected heater line. The main difference from their conventional models is built-in WiFi, so you set and monitor water temperature from your phone rather than at the pad.
Is the 018051 propane or natural gas?
Liquid propane. Fuel is set by model, so order the natural gas Avia R404A if you have gas service at the property.
What size pool does 399,000 BTU suit?
Large in-ground pools and pool and spa combinations where recovery time matters. Sizing depends on surface area, temperature rise, and climate, so have a pool professional size it for your install.
Should I choose the R404A or the R264A?
Go with the R404A for a large pool, a spa you want hot fast, or a cold climate. The R264A at 264K is the more economical pick for a typical residential pool.
Do I need a hub or gateway for the WiFi?
The connectivity is built into the heater. You will need WiFi coverage that reaches the equipment pad, which is worth checking before install since pads are often at the far corner of the property.
Does it need professional installation?
Yes. Propane sizing, venting, electrical, and local code make this a licensed installer job, and improper installation can affect warranty coverage.
