Safety applies to the equipment room, too—and proper venting makes all the difference!

Raypak pool heaters require proper Type B double-wall gas venting to safely carry exhaust gases outdoors. Incorrect materials, corroded venting, damaged liners, loose connections or sections that no longer seal properly can create a serious safety hazard. Improper or damaged venting can allow combustion gases—including deadly carbon monoxide—to enter the equipment room.
In this project, the original single-wall material was not appropriate for the application and the vent sections were no longer sealed. Chemical vapors trapped inside the small equipment room had severely corroded the existing single-wall venting, making complete replacement necessary.

Our technicians installed a new heater, removed the deteriorated venting and installed a new draft hood along with code-compliant Type B double-wall venting extending through the existing roof termination. .

Pool heaters and their venting should always be installed and serviced by qualified professionals. Protect your equipment, your investment, and most importantly, everyone's safety!

Did you know that water feature equipment rooms are vastly different from standard pool rooms? These complex, often confined spaces are technically demanding to work in and present unique safety and operational challenges—which is why many companies refuse to service them altogether.

California Waters is different. We specialize in these sophisticated vaults and the unique systems required to keep them running. Through dedicated hands-on training and strict safety procedures, we take on the tough jobs to ensure your water feature receives the expert care it deserves. Our team is here to help. Give us a call!

We gave this pool equipment room a major glow-up! The old Raypak heater and venting were worn out, and the service pad had seen better days — so our team stepped in to make things right.

Our services included:
• Removing the old heater and venting
• Demolishing the damaged service pad
• Pouring a new concrete pad
• Installing a new Raypak P1532C heater
• Adding new, code-compliant venting for safe, efficient operation

The result? A clean setup, a reliable heater, and one very happy client. Check out the before and after photos! If your equipment area is ready for a refresh, we’re just a call away! 949.528.0900
