  • My pool heater quit working. It would try to start, but then fail. The error code "IF" was displayed. It was an "Ignition Failure Lockout". I looked at a few videos, but none showed how to actually fix the problem.
    I hope this helps someone!

    Thank you!! You hit the nail right on the head. The 1st one was filled with cob-webs. Simple cleaning and it worked like a champ!

    Legend. I replaced and returned at least 5 different parts on my heater air can and paper clip did the trick. Thank you.

    Thanks for the video. I had a similar problem with my house heater; cleaned the jets and good to go. My pool is pretty new and getting the 'IF' ignition failure code. I believe it is low gas pressure in my case, as I'm down to about 8% left in my propane tank.

    Mine has like 10 of those inserts. So instead of removing them I just hit each one with canned air using the little straw nozzle. Work like a charm. Thanks!

    I owe you a drink sir! Went to fire up my 2 year old heater and was frustrated that it kicked on and right off. Called the pool company. They were going to come out tomorrow to check it out and probably charge me nicely. Just went through the orfices right to left and as I'm getting to the end they were all clean so I wasn't feeling great. Sure enough I get to the last one and Walla, a nice web. Cleaned it out, put it back and it fired right up. Don't think the pool company is happy with my service cancelation 😂

    this is true, I had 2 of four plugged completely .....easy to do and will add to my opening procedures. Heater is 10 years old and I have never cleaned them before.

    Thank you so much for the video.... didn't look dirty at all, but I ran a pipe cleaner through them and had a little trouble getting the pipe to move back into position, but it worked great... running for about an hour now..... Thank you...

    I was a little concerned about the mixed reviews, but I used it last year and hooked it up again this year and it was great ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx-izdrK3eF-HMvjzeBOxToD6Fx-4ulJUh . I couldn't get my 10' Intex pool above 76 degrees the year prior and last year I got it to 90 and had to put ice in it. This worked so well! I have just 1 mat hooked up to a 1,000 GPH Intex pump and it makes a significant reduction in the flow rate coming back into the pool, but that is to be expected with how far the water has to travel through the mat.
