It is the genuine Raypak part for the metal heat exchanger, and it ships with the baffle, a stud bolt kit and nine header gaskets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the bundle gets replaced\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tube bundle is where combustion heat crosses into the water, so it takes the worst of both sides: flame and flue gas outside, pool chemistry inside. Low pH, high salt or long running with poor water balance thins the tubes until they leak, and a leaking bundle drips onto the burner tray and rusts out the rest of the heater in short order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCupro nickel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCopper nickel is the harder wearing choice. It costs more than a plain copper bundle and it survives water that would take a copper exchanger out early, which is why it is standard on salt pools and the sensible replacement when the original copper bundle has already failed once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore you order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm the heater is a 406A or 407A and that it is the ASME build. Replace the header gaskets that come in the kit rather than reusing the old ones, and inspect the headers and the burner tray while the heater is apart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raypak","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48625790681300,"sku":"RAY-151-1709","price":1506.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_67bf1226-1aa3-4ba9-aefe-5ae53c5748ac.jpg?v=1788700131","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/cupro-nickel-tube-bundle-asme-406a-407a","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
