Hi,

Our pool contractor was out to open our pool and found several mouse nests in our heater and said the heating bricks had collapsed. He felt it would be less expensive to replace our heater than repair the 17 year old unit and suggested a Hayward H400. The price including installation is about $3800 and does not include hook up to our propane gas tank. This is a gulp-inducing price for us...

Looking for options/advice on repair vs. replace, less expensive heating options and if $3800 is a fair price for the heater/install. We have a 28,300 gallon ig pool in the ny.

tia,
