Raypac 106A. Spa water level dropped 6-8" overnight. Leakage noted at the base of the heater. Dismantled and suspect the tube bundle (copper) 0148784F (2 tube ends appeared eroded). Comments?

Hi, Joe Pfeifer. Improper water chemistry is the number one cause of a corroded tube assembly.

Hello my name is Gordon Machay, Lead Maintenance Tech at the Hyatt Place Keystone Colorado, and I operate 2 hot tubs that have tube bundle(106A) in their boilers. I installed 2 brand new tube bundles in each of the boilers only 3 months ago and both failed and leaked. My question is: Why are the tube bundles that I purchased from your company failing and leaking from the tubes with only 3 months usage? I cannot justify replacing the tube bundles every 3 months, I feel they should last longer
According to the Raypak owners manual for the R106A & R156A heaters on page 32 https://images.inyopools.com/cloud/documents/owners-manual-models-106-156.pdf Leaking at heat exchanger Over-acid: Replace heat exchanger and maintain proper water chemistry.
