The Pentair 42001-0008S is an OEM display/control panel cover for Sta-Rite
Max-E-Therm pool and spa heaters. This cover protects the heaters user interface from weather exposure,
UV, dirt, and splashing, helping keep the keypad and display area clean and readable.
Key Features
- Protects the control panel: shields the display and keypad area from sun, rain, and debris.
- Restores a clean look: ideal replacement for cracked, faded, cloudy, or missing display covers.
- OEM-fit replacement: designed to match the original cover dimensions for compatible Max-E-Therm heaters.
- Helps reduce premature wear: minimizing direct exposure can extend the life of the display and keypad area.
Compatibility
- Fits: Sta-Rite Max-E-Therm heaters where the parts diagram specifies 42001-0008S
- Common Max-E-Therm models: SR200, SR333, SR400 (model/revision dependent)
Tip: Heater panels can vary by revision. Confirm your heater model and parts list to ensure this is the correct display cover.
Common Reasons to Replace
- Cover is cracked, brittle, or broken and no longer protects the control panel
- Cover is UV-faded or cloudy, making the display difficult to read
- Cover will not stay secured due to damage or warping
- Water/debris is reaching the keypad/display area more easily than it should
Installation Notes
- Designed as a direct-fit replacement; install with the heater powered off and the panel area clean and dry.
- Inspect the surrounding panel area for cracks or loose mounting points that could prevent the cover from seating correctly.
- If the control panel has corrosion or moisture damage, address the cause (sprinklers, cabinet seals, water intrusion) before replacing electronics.
