Temperature Reading Inaccurate
Heater display shows incorrect water temperature compared to an external thermometer.

Possible Causes
Out-of-calibration Thermeau water temperature sensor, Sensor not fully inserted in thermowell, Poor thermal contact due to dried thermal paste, Control board calibration drift
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before removing sensors.
- Verify with reliable thermometer: Measure pool water temperature away from returns and compare to the heater display.
- Check sensor installation: Ensure the sensor is fully seated in its well or firmly clamped to the pipe as designed.
- Improve thermal contact: If the sensor uses a thermowell, apply fresh thermal compound approved for sensors to improve heat transfer.
- Replace sensor: If readings remain off by more than a few degrees, replace the Thermeau water temperature sensor.
- Board replacement: If a new sensor does not correct the reading, the control board may be miscalibrated and require replacement.
