Description
The Pentair MiniMax Fin Tube Seal Gasket (070951) is the OEM replacement sealing gasket for the Pentair MiniMax heater series, providing a critical gas-tight seal at the fin tube assembly within the heater’s combustion section.
IMPORTANT: LICENSED PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION REQUIRED
Gas and electrical heater components must be serviced by a licensed pool professional or qualified HVAC technician. Do not attempt to service gas or high-voltage components without proper certification.
The fin tube seal gasket maintains the integrity of the heat exchanger section in the MiniMax heater, preventing combustion gas bypass around the fin tube assembly. A degraded or failed gasket can result in heat loss, incomplete combustion, or unsafe exhaust gas migration within the heater cabinet. Replacing this gasket at the first sign of deterioration restores proper combustion sealing and protects the surrounding heater components.

Pro Tip
When servicing the fin tube area of a MiniMax heater, inspect all adjacent gaskets and seals for heat-related hardening or cracking at the same time combustion heat affects all sealing surfaces in this section simultaneously. Have your licensed technician verify burner tray alignment and heat exchanger condition before reassembly. Consult the Pentair MiniMax installation and service manual for torque specifications and reassembly sequence.
