    those packets contain silica beads. if they've been sitting out in atmosphere for any length of time they are likely saturated with all the moisture they can hold anyway. in no better shape than the moist ones from the cleaner. any of those you can bake at 150f for a few hours (i use a turkey roaster). you can do that a few dozen times before the beads become unrecoverable. take them immediately out of the oven and let them cool just enough to not melt plastic and assemble the machine before they can become saturated again.

      You really don't need to; you're not dealing with any of the electronics or anything else requiring that. However, with that being said, if your drain pan is nearly full, it's best to shut the system off until you can ensure the primary drain line clog has been cleared and the pan is draining.

    Hello, Thanks so much for taking the time to do this video! I appreciate it! We had a power outage here, and we have hot water, but I can’t see the pilot light when the hot water heater ignites. Does the pilot light still have to be reset? I can’t understand how we still have hot water, but can’t see the flame when the heater ignites.It’s a Bradford White water heater with Honeywell Controls Model MI40356FBN. Thanks for any help you can give me.

    • @MarktheHost
      @MarktheHost 3 месяца назад

      If you still have hot water, even hours after that power outage, then you're good to go. A power outage doesn't necessarily mean a pilot light will go out. It's possible that you may just not be looking exactly in the right place for that pilot light... So you should really try to figure that out... But it sounds like you're okay.

    • @MsPinky-ch8te
      @MsPinky-ch8te 3 месяца назад

    Quick note: on my P945 I was able to untwist the pins section from the longer black body by putting a wide flathead screwdriver down between the pins, into the molded plastic body, and turn. I made sure not to hit the pins. I found this way pretty easy compared to using pliers to hold the side of the pin case.

    Hi Mark. I just got one of these and have a quick question. Do the wheels turn when the unit is not in the pool? I’m trying to test it to make sure everything works but when I press start, the propeller motor runs for a few seconds then stops for 10 seconds, then runs for a few seconds again. Is this normal behavior when the unit is not in water? Thanks

    • @MarktheHost
      @MarktheHost 6 месяцев назад

      While that might sound like a plausible solution, keep in mind that the control unit is expecting those 3 particular pins to have the wires connected to them, so no I don't feel that will work. At this point, you'll probably have to replace the entire screw-in connector, and finding those parts might be difficult.
