For the 5.5KW unit how much water flow is required through the heater(570gph)?
Reply
The flow should be maintained above 15 GPM (900 GPH). Failure to do so will cause the pressure switch to drop out, and the heater will become inoperative.

My hot tub is a side extension of my main (in ground concrete) pool. Can this unit be placed exposed to the elements alongside my pump/filter equipment?

2 to 4 hrs

Most would tear it out, but for $2,300 with new lighting and a few bugs ironed out, the hot tub is at it's best in years.
Although the Spapak 11KW Spa heater went in easy, I thought the heater was faulty as it failed to heat past 86 degrees and AC indicator would not illuminate, and half the dual breaker would trip. A write up in the trouble shooting steps showed that the over pressure switch trip point comes set for a single speed pool pump during the vendor testing. The two speed hot tub pump would over pressurize and trip the relay. All it took is a 1/4 turn counter clockwise till the relay released (Clicked). Now it is working great and the tub will run up to 102 degrees, which has been great on these cold winter days....getting out into the cold breeze is the only hard part.

(5 out of 5 stars) Heats my 2400 gallon pool
Reviewed By: coleen from Washington State ()
Pros: Effective. Easy.
Cons: Yes, you have to do wiring.
I just wanted to take the 'edge' off the cold in my outdoor portable 6X12 pool. This takes the pool (2400 gallons) from 61 to 68 in 3 hours... BIG difference for me for my exercise swim. I easily wired it to a GFCI disconnect box and my 1hp pump/filter. The pressure gauge on the pump showed no difference after installing the heater. Very simple, effective. We'll see how soon i'll have to use the section of the manual that tells how to replace each part :)

(4 out of 5 stars) Electric Pool Heater - as hot as you want it.
Reviewed By: CARLA R. from STRATFORD, WI ()
Pros: It does what it is suppose to. It has an adjustable thermastat. It will shut off if the pump is shut off. Warms up pretty quickly.
Cons: The electric bill gets really huge.
This electric pool heater works very well. It was able to heat a 7500 gal pool up as high as I wanted it to go. I actually went overboard one day up to 104 degrees F.

(4 out of 5 stars) Electric pool heater
Reviewed By: smokieroo from Branson, MO ()
Pros: With the wire on and fixed. it runs great
Cons: Heater should be inspected better before shipped out
Nice heater, heated my pool over nite. Only thing is. It was missing a very important wire. Would not work. I had to have my contractor work a extra hour, pay him to get the wire, pay for the wire. and that cost me. I believe that I should get a rebate back because of the missing wire.
