Why does the product info on amazon indicate a "water level line" if it's fully submersible?

Not sure.. but mine is submersed without any issues. Now that Im thinking about it... its probably the MINIMUM water line......

They just mean that at least the glass part must stay beneath the water line. The plastic top and temperature adjustment knob can be above or below the water line. I've had this heater for a few months and I love it. Accurate and easy to use. Highly recommended!

Under the handle there is a water level indicator which is a window of plastic. Look at the second picture and you will see what I mean. This is not glass, it is plastic.

the top of the water level indicator button is plastic, however, the section below the "MAX" button appears to be a hollow metal tube - my second favorite engineer concurs with this assessment.

Well, there's only one way to find out, and I'm not going to submerge it. I bought it because we live in a hurricane prone area, but none yet. I do know that it works great under normal conditions.

From my understanding, products are originally categorized by the seller/manufacturer and then that is confirmed or reclassified by workers. As the manufacturer clearly states it is not leak-proof, perhaps one of the workers categorizing products misread or just assumed it would be. It's always best to go by the description and information given by the manufacturer instead of just relying on a sorting filter.

I believe there is actual writing on the face plate that says 'submersible'.

This pump is not submersible. The motor and switch are not waterproof sealed. The pump is really designed to be placed or mounted on a flat dry surface

I have no idea if it is UL listed. It's not a complicated piece of equipment! It's a pump, it blows bubbles into a bucket of water, it keeps bait alive, and it does it well! It lasts for a long time unless you immerse it totally in salt water and don't dry it out right away! Unless you need to use it for a more complicated job than that.... I can't imagine you would need it to be UL listed! But I bet you could GOOGLE it. Sorry, don't mean to sound sarcastic!

Yes, there is an indicator line on the heater itself that shows the minimum water level.

excuse me. how can 2 people say opposite things about this? did they buy the exact same product? one says there is a plastic water level viewing window and the other says there is none. which is correct for this product?

I know exactly what you're talking about. Even when you hold it up to the light, the water level is not visible. Annoying since you have to shake the iron and make a guess as to whether to refill it. How dumb is that?

The product could be applied to the pool steps when the pool water level is below the steps. The anti-slip quality is created in the steps as a result of the product roughening the surface. You might check your pool step warranty before trying as use of any type of coating or chemical treatment may void the warranty.

As far as I now there is no difference. I have changed mine for different water levels a couple of times. paid no attention to which is which, and everything always worked.

That is what it is supposed to do, the instructions are trying to tell you that it is a submersible pump, as compared to a surface pump.

It's gasket sealed and weather resistant. Not sure if it's completely submersible.

I don't know. Perhaps ask or call the manufacturer for that as being submerged might not be an intended use.

I'm not sure. I bought it for Winter use as its to hot where I live to need one right now. It is fully submersible so you could place it well below the water line.
