## Questions & Answers

**Q: Could this be used to slowly heat a small above ground pool?  Just wanting it warmer.**
A: Funny how all of the answers here are probably not, I doubt it or I wouldn't.  Don't answer the question if you don't actually know. 

I use the eco 8kw coupled to a standard water heater recirculation pump and it works well for 2000 gallon pool.  I would say though 8 kw is minimum for this much water.  I can maintain 80°F in ambient temp of    60° (nightly low) to high of 72°.  I run it about 2-4 hours a day depending. Costs about $3 - $6 to run per day.  Hope this is useful information.

**Q: will freezing weather damage it**
A: As long as the water is able to run though the pipes it won't but the water won't be very hot. Only heats the water to a certain degree above original temp. Check the specs on the web site for more detail.

**Q: To replace a 40 gallon water tank heater with 40 amp fuse, is this a feabile diy project?**
A: The EcoSmart 8 isn’t capable of replacing a 40 gallon water heater. The 40 gallon heater is designed to supply hot water to every faucet in the house. The EcoSmart 8 is a point-of-use water heater designed to supply heated water to only one faucet, and usually only a bathroom faucet.

**Q: is it 50 or 60 hrtz**
A: Ours is 60 hrtz
