Will it pump liquids at 165-170F or is that too hot?

According to pump specifications minimum temp is 40 degrees and maximum is 120 degrees.

About half way keeps my pump house at 45-50 degrees depending on the temp outside. Sub zero temps keep it a bit cooler inside, so I set it higher when I know the temp will drop low. My pump house is insulated well.

Hot??, that's subjective. If unopened it would keep hot liquid fairly warm. Best you can expect, subject to outside temperature

NO!! You should keep the water under 100 degrees Celsius because you are not supposed to put boiling water into it.

The fluid coming out of my coffee maker measures approximately 150 degrees with two different thermometers. That was into a cold container so I would think it would be a little hotter directly from the machine.

I tested the water streaming from the unit with an instant read thermometer and it was 195 degrees. In the cup it is several degrees cooler.

I believe that it would be too hot. It just about boils the water. Does not have heat range.

That should be fine with this unit. The amount of water makes no difference to the meter, and 180 F is not too hot. I don't see a temperature rating on the unit, but I put 160 F water through it regularly without any problems. I don't see the extra 20 F making a huge difference.

208, 194, and 158 degrees. What I love about this machine? Instant hot cocoa, hot apple cider, tea, or soup. If cooking on the stove top you don't have to wait around for water to come from room temperature to boil. If water is set at 208 all hot water needs is a few minutes to come to a roiling boil for pasta, veggies or potatoes. I purchased my first hot water pot at Camp Casey, Korea in '97. It had the push button pump that dispensed the water. The pump stopped working after two years. I upgraded to the new push button dispenser. It still works excellent. My Mother still uses it for coffee, and hot chocolate. I purchased another one for myself. I gave one to my sister and my older brother. And now my younger brother has his eyes on mine. I stayed in San Francisco with a friend for awhile and set up my hot water pot in his kitchen. When I left he fought to high heaven wanting to keep my hot water pot. So I let him have it. It's a great gift for college students who might want hot water for cooking. Actually I learned about the pot visiting my younger brother who was a Marine stationed on Okinawa. He had one in his room and used it for hot instant soup. I have my eyes on a newer pot now. The absolute best deals I have found would be on a military base exchange, PX or China town in San Francisco. It just seems that my kitchen is missing an important tool without it. If you do decide to purchase make sure you purchase citric acid cleaner for water boilers. I purchased the brand name Zojirushi. I used the cleaner for the first time two months ago with great results. Depending on the water type used a scale can build up. This powder removes scale build up. Non toxic. Extends life and performance of boiler. Cleaner water boiler=proper water temperature=better tasting water. I also have a Zojirushi rice maker that makes top notch rice. The Zojirushi brand in my opinion has excellent products also. But I've always stuck with my Tiger Hot Water Pot.

Not really. Room temperature. My fountain pump is now broken after about 6 months it quit working. Motor burned out.

Since this pump is primarily used in a supercharger intercooler application, water temps usually never get higher than 250*F. Most operating conditions would be from ambient (as cool as freezing 32*F) to as high as 250*F on a hot day with high boost conditions. These pumps do not operate with a lot of pressure, but instead pump a decent enough volume. They generally not used to move coolant in an engine. The intercooled supercharger application has it's own dedicated cooling system I.E. radiator/pump/reservoir/hoses ect. separate from the engine cooling system.

I am not sure that pouring very hot (e.g. boiling) water in it is a very good idea. It's not insulated, so it would get very hot to hold, plus I'm not sure whether the plastic would emit any chemicals due to hot water or not. I put relatively warm water in it with no troubles, but it's only about 100F or so.

clean, ph readywatertobottom of pump.turn it on. keep water temp 70- 78 degrees

It works great as a desk surface, it is rated to 300 or 400 degrees so hot drinks shouldn't be a problem

Best I can tell the range is from 46F to 66F. We leave it about 54F. To us that's a reasonable drinking temperature.

I don't see why water temp of 105 degrees would be any problem. The housing material appears to be capable to handle that water temp just fine. The pump works fine and is self priming. Very compact compared to others. Has very good pressure. Good price for a good pump.

I am not sure... But I usually put hot coffee in it for my commute into work... And I set it up for 120° which seems to be about the perfect temperature ....that does not take long at all
