how long does it take to heat 5 gallons of water to 170 degrees

At full blast less than ten minutes from room temp to 170. Good luck paying for propane right now though.

10-15 minutes takes about 20-25 for boil. Great buy for brewing, used mine twice so far.

I don't know the exact per minute rate but a 5 minute shower used approximately 2 1/2 Gallons of water ...I took a five minute shower and used half of the contents of a 5 gallon bucket of warm water. Jim K

Depends on how much water you put into the tank. If you fill to the max, it is about 5 minutes more or less where you will start getting steam to start or resume your project.

The directions say it will heat water in a glass or ceramic container in 2-3 minutes. I wouldn't try to heat over 8 - 12 Oz of water it could really damage your wiring in your RV, my beverage warmer blew a fuse in my truck.

My husband has used 5 gallon buckets to fill the pool with warm water from the tub spout and it takes him about 20-30 minutes. We are getting ready to do this anyday now again.

With room temperature water, it takes about three minutes when set on high. I usually begin with water already heated from a brewer so it is less than a minute for it to boil.

Beings this unit does not have a hot selection the selections are cool and cold. The farm hands using this machine are happy with the cold water, but you do not want a line of people trying to get cold water, all at once. The instructions say the following after you fill unit with water or after you place a water jug on the unit - It will take approximately 1 hour to reach optimum temperature. If you consume 1-8 oz. cup the recovery time is approx. 25 minutes or less. If you consume 2 or more 8 oz. cups recovery time can take up to 1 hour.

About 25-30 minutes when the pot is full. Then it keeps it warm for the duration of whatever amount of water is left. To reboil the warm water, it takes about 2-4 minutes.

i would get a 300 W heater for a 55 gal. I believe the general rule is 5 W per gallon of water. 200W isn't quite enough.

This may be more heater than you're looking for....I believe there is also a 5.5KW model which might be better suited to a smaller tub. With this unit, my 1,000 gallon hot tub heats at a rate of about +4F/hour. So if it starts at 70F, it will take roughly 7 hours to get to 100F.

60,000 gallons of pool water weighs roughly 510,000 pounds a 400,000 btu heater running at 85% eff. would add approx. 340,000 btu's an hour. this translates to about 1 degree temperature rise every 1.5 hours of run time with your solar cover on, make it 1 degree temp rise in 2 hours without that solar cover.

Would depend on thic kness, heat under hot water numerous time if ur in a hurry. 2 hrs or so

It could take from 15 to 30 minutes to pull 5 gallons out....the unit is best for relatively small amounts (i.e. one or two gallons).......hope this helps (PS I use it to empty the tank on my jet ski)...very best regards,Don

I didn't go and measure mine but I use mine to make boiled peanuts. I use a 5 gallon SS pot with 3 gallons of water and 5# of raw peanuts. Water comes to a boil in about 15-20 minutes. With 12,000 btus I'm sure it will take care of your hot pot.

Sorry, no details available for incoming vs. outgoing temperatures. With only six gallons available at the set temparture, and the incoming temp 1/2 to 2/3's of the set temp, the electric water heater will only be able to main a consistent temperature for a minute or two. Water heaters this size are primarily used in conjunction with another water heater, or for a location where very little hot water is needed. I would estimate a good hour for the heater to completely heat the entire incoming six gallons to 120 degrees.

About 8 minutes, depending on your coolant temp and flow rates, of course.I usually make 5 gallon batches, which cool from 210 to 78 degrees in about 4 minutes. My coolant water is about 60 degrees.After use, I flush with clean water then run some sanitizer through and let it drain out. I've used about 10 times so far and it works great. I'm considering installing quick connect fittings as connection of the hoses each use it the only thing that takes any significant time, but even that is not much.

The easiest way is to always bring the water to a boil (212 degrees) then let it "rest" until it reaches 175 -- the time it takes to cool down to 175 will be the same regardless of cooking method & variations in microwaves. Just put a thermometer in the water the first time you do this and time how long it takes, round that up to the nearest minute, and always wait that long after boiling -- for two cups, it should be about a minute. Another option is add 1.5 cups of boiling water (212 degrees) to .5 cups of room temp water (70 degrees)-- the result will be 175 degrees (.75*212 + .25*70 = 176). Voil!
