I have a king size soft side waterbed.Can I use this heater with it ?

Yes, I have had mine for about a year and it works great, I have it set at 87 degrees and it is right on. I have only one complaint and that is the price
2086987
My guess is it would, take a while to heat, but I'd think it will. My old heater worked better but this one is OK.

I don't see why not. We have a regular water mattress that's been put into a pillow top zip case and the heater works fine.

The description states: "Full Watt Solid State Waterbed Heater for use with minimum 9" depth waterbeds in rigid side box or wood waterbed frames." I purchased it for a wood frame waterbed. I found this heater for softside waterbeds by the same company, in fact the control, looks the same. But my suggestion would be to purchase the one designated for the softside beds. The item I found is: Softside Waterbed Heater Thermal Guardian Touch Temp Heater. Type that in the search on Amazon and you can look at it.

Sure, but you'll be operating it at capacity and that might lower the life expectancy of the heater. I used two to reduce the load on just one big one and if one does go out, the other can carry the load until I get a new one. My tank is a marine tank, it might not be as big a deal for fresh water. Hope that helped.

Hi, I really don't know if it would or not .My bed is a king size . why don't you enter[ water bed heater for twin] in the search and see what comes up?

You could, but the heating element does not heat up the water very hot (in my experience).

I have no idea if you can or not, but this mattress pad is Awesome. Love it and would buy again. It's great that you can set your own side to the temp you want and your partner can do the same

All water heaters have the same size hex and same size thread. You will probably need a nut driver impact wrench to break it loose. I bought one just for that occasion. A 4 foot breaker bar was not enough. Good luck

You should put the heater near the foot of the bed, maybe six inches to a foot from the end... You can place it anywhere there, but I've read that you should put it within the same distance from a side, so that if you need to move it, it's easier to access...

This item didn't work for me, I needed it for an Ozark Trail air mattress. It may work on a waterbed, I would suggest contacting Intex directly and ask them to be sure.

Yes, proper hookup to any size tank you like. You do need a regulator and you really shouldn't have the tank close to the heater (against code). This little unit really cranks out the heat!

you can dry with other bedding items on the low heat setting. Using medium or high heat will damage the waterproof layer.

You probably could, but you will create an insulating pad and the heater will be less efficient.

Yes, this heater is made for a hard side waterbed which IS a bladder-style bed inside a wood (hard side) frame. It took me awhile to figure that out.

I am not sure, but you should probably do something. I would check with a waterbed retailer.

Maybe. But it depends on how high you want it. I got rid of my waterbed mattress and placed the new mattress in its spot.

Yes it should work but these heaters take additional time to heat the water so the nearer the unit is to the point of use the better

That would be awkward at best, as the small cylinder is the base upon which this heater rests. The small cylinder valve is vertical, and the large cylinder valve is horizontal. I suggest looking for something like the Mr Heater F242100 Tank-Top Heater, 8,000-15000-BTU.

yes - however you are limited to the volume of water being consumed vs capacity of heater
