Raypak Professional Series Digital B-R268-EN-X #50 — 266,000 BTU Natural Gas Cupronickel Heater

The B-R268-EN-X is Raypak's commercial-grade Professional Series heater — bronze headers, cupro-nickel heat exchanger, natural gas, rated for 0–2,000 ft elevation. Built for heavier duty cycles and demanding installations, not just typical residential use.

Quick Stats

  • 266,000 BTU input
  • Natural gas
  • Cupro-nickel heat exchanger — better corrosion resistance than copper
  • Bronze headers — Professional Series construction
  • Rated for 0–2,000 ft elevation — confirm your installation elevation before ordering
  • Digital electronic ignition with on-board diagnostics

How to Read a Raypak Digital Model Number

[Header]-R[BTU]A-[Ignition][Fuel]-[Material] #[Elevation] — B = Bronze headers (Professional Series, this model) vs. P (Polymer, standard Digital line). E/M = ignition, N/P = fuel, C/X = tube material. #50/#51/#52 (natural gas) = elevation: 0–2,000 ft / 2,000–6,000 ft / 6,000–9,000 ft.

Elevation match matters for combustion safety and warranty coverage — confirm your installation altitude before ordering.

Is the Professional Series Worth the Premium?

Almost double the price of the equivalent standard Digital model (P-R266A-EN-C at $3,179) for the same 266,000 BTU output. The premium buys bronze headers and cupro-nickel construction built for heavier, more continuous duty cycles — the right call for commercial applications, high-use pools, or harsh water chemistry environments. For typical residential use, the standard copper Digital line at this same BTU tier is usually the better value.

Install Note

Gas heater installation involves gas line sizing, venting, and electrical work — use a licensed professional per local code. Confirm elevation, gas type, and BTU needs with your installer before ordering.
