HeartGP asked:

We moved into our house last year during the winter. It came with a swimming pool that we've been enjoying very much in the summer. However, the previous owner left a Stay Rite gas pool heater in the basement and we have not used it. From the original sales receipt, it's about three years old now. The owner said that it worked fine last summer, but we don't think that we need it and I don't want to pay someone to hook it up.

I was thinking about selling it and wondering if we could get anything for it?

My gas pool heater stopped working. I have reset the circuit breaker and there is electrical power at the heater itself. I have also visually inspected the wiring and do not see any problem areas.

What else should I look at? Thanks!
