That is a dedicated circuit, and it is the item worth pricing before the heater, because the run from the panel is often the larger part of an electric heater install.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlumbing and flow\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater connections are 1-1\/2 inch by 2 inch unions for PVC pipe, so the heater unions off the line for service rather than being cut out. The rated flow range is 15 to 80 gpm, which covers the pump sizes normally found on a spa or small pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cabinet is 4 inch wide, 14 inch deep and 17-1\/2 inch high.
