Review: Good Unit - Wonder if they Used Soy Wire Insulation as Mice Liked to Eat Them - Easy to install. Not cheap, but efficient heater for my large pool. It has been 2yrs, and aside from the mice that ate the wiring harness to the display, it was worked great (display was easy to replace and parts are easily accessible which is also nice to make sure this lasts for a long time to come. I think the wires may have been soy based insulation which may be part of the problem). Otherwise it fit where my prior unit was as I just replaced the 20+ year old unit. Not the quietest of devices, but as this is my first pool/hot tub...not sure if they get quieter. Review: Best Heater I have Owned - So I purchased nearly identical model 17 years ago. Self installed except for need of larger supply line for gas input that required a licensed plumber. While I did have a couple failures related to the odd geckos crawling up behind a circuit board with 220 voltage (part easily obtained from desertcart and replaced myself) and shorting out. The heater performed wonderfully! Fast forward to this spring and it was not working after winter months. No input from control board. Tested things I was sure of to no avail. BUT then realized this was 17 years old! I purchased this newer version and it arrived. Unwired and unplumbed from old and connections identical to new. Rewired and replumbed in about 45 minutes and it was up and running 100%. Highly Recommend Hayward products. I also use there pool pumps and sand filters among other odds and ends. Always satisfied! ## Features - EASY TO USE: Intuitive inground pool heater control panel enables easy operation and maintenance.

Only need to use it for a few weeks per year at the beginning and end of summer. It hasn’t run constantly during that time but mostly when the kids wanted to swim and water was cool. Went to start up go this season and unit will not work. Dan comes on but nothing else. Had a pool company come check it out then they called Hayward for parts and was told that the unit was discontinued and there’s no parts available. I was shocked and find this completely unacceptable especially considering the cost, time from date of purchase and that this is supposed to be a reputable company. I would absolutely consider another brand. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hayward W3H400FDN Universal H-Series 400,000 BTU Natural Gas Pool and Spa Heater for In-Ground Pools and Spas - Hayward SPX3200UNKIT Union Connector Replacement Kit for Select Hayward Pump and Heater - 2 PACK -CMP Hi-Temp Union 2" inch 2MIP x 2" inch PVC Whisperflo & Intelliflo - 2 PACK --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/147296513-hayward-pool-heater-for-inground-pools-universal-h-series-400](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/147296513-hayward-pool-heater-for-inground-pools-universal-h-series-400) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-29*
