Is heater also a pump?

There is no actual pump however it does cause a thermosyphon action by drawing colder liquid from the bottom and heating it.

You can use a 12 volt pump like you would find on a camper. We have a popup camper that I use this with and the camper has a 12 volt pump that pumps water from a holding tank to the heater. The only problem with pumps is that it's best to also hook up a small accumulator tank (like a shurflow model) to smooth out the water flow from the pump to the heater.

The pump is installed at the water heater so power is only needed at water heater. Pump can run all the time or it has a built in timer you can use to set the times you would like it to run.

No. I chose the separate electric pump (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009PURX6/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) or you can also choose a battery operated one if you want to take the bed camping.

Actually...I hooked it up to my home natural gas supply. I do not know.However, yes, it is a large heater. I have a 2550 square ft two story home. I got this to supplement during our particularly snarky winters here in Michigan.It keeps us warm and toasty! Also helps reduce the need for the main furnace use, which is 150000 btu's.I noticed a significant reduction in my heating bills.The heater works well, with no issues.I am in my second season with it.Quite happy.

We have a well with electric pump too. yes. my brother installed his and it worked wonderful. we have not got our up and running yet. waiting for the weather to break. my brother did use his. He installed it and then packed it back up and put in his attic for emergency only. he's ready to rock and roll if power goes down. hope this helped.

Its easy. The pump mounts to the hot water outlet on your heater. Install the valve at a sink as far away from the heater as possible. Requires basic hand tools. Just follow the included instructions.

no it does not. but it is very durable. this was a gift for my daughter in law. I already had one and I cant remember how long I have had it. it is a very good product, and my daughter in law loves it, and has no complaints. I think as long as the heater does not get wet, it will be fine in your pump house.

Hard to answer as we have had a severe cold spell and I use a heat pump for main heat source. By using this heater my pump would run less often so I guess it's a trade off.

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

Anytime this unit is on, the heater runs. So, if so, I haven't figured out how. But for my purpose I need the heater.

There is a push in switch at the bottom of the right vertical rail. It's also where the wiring comes out. No this can not be use as an alternate heater because the rails only get warm to the touch. It does a good job drying towels, takes awhile, but it is low electrical consumption.

The pump runs on 120v, needs a gfci. The heater needs a dedicated 240v line on a gfci breaker at least 30 amps, I installed a 40 amp line. If you have problems at first there is a pressure switch in the heater that may have to be adjusted. That switch insures that the heater is not on when the pump is not running.

Most Gas heaters are adapted to both. Have a plumber install the heater for your safety.

The pump is electric and built in to the bed. Not sure why the title was changed. Perhaps someone is up to some tomfoolery.

Yes it has pump, on the front half, and electric motor on the back half. Runs very quiet compared to other models I have had. Easy install. Very Good unit.
