How service works
What I check on a Sunpak
What working with this equipment actually teaches you.
- Ignition and control module first.
Most 'dead heater' Sunpak calls trace to the ignition chain — module, igniter, or flame sensing. I diagnose it in one visit.
- Burner and emitter condition.
Infrared output drops when burners foul. Cleaning and adjustment often restores full heat without a single new part.
- Gas supply and pressure.
Undersized lines starve big units. If your S34 never quite roared, the heater may be innocent.
- Repair vs replace, honestly.
I've sold ~30 of these — I know when a $200 fix buys five more years and when you're throwing money at a retired unit.
Common questions
Do you carry Sunpak parts?
Yes — igniters, burners, valves, and controls for the models we service, with genuine parts access.
How fast can you get out?
48–72 hour response, guaranteed. Most diagnoses happen on the first visit.
Is it worth repairing or should I replace?
We'll tell you straight. If the repair costs more than the remaining life is worth, we'll say replace — and quote that too.
