Raypak 010026F Paddle Kit

The Raypak 010026F Paddle Kit is a critical field-replacement component designed for the Raypak flow switch assembly used in Atmospheric and Low NOx gas-fired pool heaters. This kit facilitates the mechanical detection of water flow through the heat exchanger, ensuring the burner circuit only energizes when sufficient GPM is achieved. Constructed from corrosion-resistant materials, the paddle is engineered to withstand the chemical environment of treated pool and spa water, preventing premature fatigue or snapping common in high-velocity systems. It is compatible with Raypak 206A - 406A and 207A - 407A heater models. When diagnosing a heater "Rollout" or "No Flow" fault code, inspecting the paddle for scale buildup or physical deformation is a standard service step. Precision-fit geometry ensures the paddle interfaces correctly with the microswitch actuator, providing reliable continuity in the safety loop during high-demand heating cycles.

• OEM Replacement Part: Ensures exact fitment and calibration for Raypak Digital and Millivolt heaters.
• Material Integrity: High-grade construction resists calcification and chemical degradation.
• System Safety: Restores proper flow sensing capabilities to protect the heat exchanger from dry-firing.
• Broad Application: Suitable for Raypak 010026F flow switch service on residential and commercial units.

How do I know if the Raypak flow switch paddle is stuck?

If your heater displays a flow-related error despite the pump being primed and operational, the paddle may be calcified or broken. Inspect the paddle assembly for free movement within the plumbing tee.

Is the 010026F kit compatible with all Raypak heaters?

This kit is specifically designed for the plastic tee flow switches found in most modern Raypak 206-406 series heaters. Verify your current switch body style before installation.

Does this kit include the microswitch?

The Raypak 010026F is a paddle-specific repair kit. If the electrical continuity is failing despite physical paddle movement, the flow switch microswitch may require separate testing or replacement.
