Product details
The Raypak P-R106A-AP-C, part number 014781, is a propane fired pool and spa heater with an analog thermostat. It is the 106A, the smallest heater in the Raypak line, and it is built for above ground pools and spas.
What being the small one means
The 106A is not a scaled down product. It carries the same construction standard as the larger Raypak heaters; it is simply matched to the water volume an above ground pool or a spa actually holds. On that kind of pool it does what a heater is supposed to do: opens the season earlier, closes it later, and has the water ready when you are. On a large in ground pool it is undersized and will run without ever catching up.
Connections and controls
Water comes in through a 2 in. SKT inlet with auto bypass. Power is a 120V NEMA cord, so it plugs in rather than needing a hard wired supply. Control is an analog thermostat. It can be installed indoors or outdoors and is rated for elevations from 0 to 4999 feet.
Fuel and rating
This is the propane model. Two BTU figures appear in the source information for it, 106,000 BTU in the listing title and 105K BTU in the model description, both describing the same 106A heater. If the exact input matters for a permit or for sizing the gas line, confirm it against the data plate on the unit.
