Product details
The Hayward Universal H-Series W3H135FDN is a natural gas pool and spa heater rated at 135,000 BTU, built for above ground pools and spas and meeting Low NOx emissions.
Speed to heat
H-Series heaters combine strong hydraulic performance with the 135,000 BTU rating, and the two together are what shorten the wait before the water is usable. Better hydraulics also mean the heater puts less back pressure on the pump, so the whole system works less hard for the same result.
The cupro nickel exchanger
The heat exchanger is cupro nickel as standard. Pool water that drifts out of balance is what kills gas heaters, attacking the exchanger from the inside until it fails early. Cupro nickel resists that, which is why the same heater keeps performing season after season on real world water rather than ideal water.
Operation and delivery
The electronic control panel is straightforward to set, so owners spend less time at the panel. The heater ships by freight.
