Will a gas heater operate at the low speed of a dual speed motor?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/16/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Probably not - Most gas heater will shut off at low GPM levels (20-40) to keep the heater cores from overheating - 20 for 200 BTUs, 40 for 400 BTUs. Depending on your pool system you might get these GPM levels at the low speed but generally these heaters must be run at the motor's high speed.

Are the Master Temp heaters okay for use with salt water pools?
 Reply

A  Answered on 5/10/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Andy O.

Steve- For a salt water pool I highly recommend a Heavy Duty model with Cupro-Nickel. The only one they offer is Natrual Gas Max-E-Therm Heater 400000 BTU Heavy Duty w/ Cupro Nickel NG Ele. Ign. SR400HD.
