Can I run boiling water through this pump?

I cannot speak from experience, but the pump is mostly plastic, so I would find one that is specifically designed to pump boiling water.

Yes you can run vinegar & water through it about a cup of vinegar and the rest water then run plain water through it and it should be fine.

No. Just a little near the spout, but you'd have to fill it far past the fill line for water to boil against the plastic.

I haven't but the unit is preset to heat to 350 which is excessive for boiling water, you wouldn't be able to turn it down to a simmer and it would probably waste energy.

Yes. That's how our hot water system is set up in our house. The pump works great.

Do not use boiling hot water. I ignored the instructions and figured I could get away with it, but it melted the cap on the reservoir and leaked heavily afterwards requiring a new reservoir.

Shouldn't be a problem but to be safe check the manufacturer's instructions. They are made to handle boiling hot liquids.

No, I do not think it will boil water but it does get water hot enough for a great cup of hot coffe. We usually start out with hot water to reduce the wait time for coffee

I don't think you can run hot water through this, but I'm not 100% sure. We always use it with cold water running through it. I think using hot water might damage the filter. They might sell an item specific for nasal irrigation or you could get in touch with the company directly to find out for sure.

I'm sure you could pour boiling water into it with no harm, but if you are using it for sous vide cooking it doesn't matter. The temperatures used for sous vide are far lower.

No the start button must be pressed to activate it at the certain temp you want. Simply applying power to it will not set it in motion to boil or heat water

I guess you could. There's nothing specifically I can think of that would prevent this from working, but it is definitely outside the parameters by which it was designed. I think if I were going to use it, my primary means would be to use a simple pot to boil water and put the boiling water into it, as it's designed to function. If that is not an option, then I would at least put some type of metal plate between it and the open flame to protect the finish. Obviously, if you don't care about the finish, then just put it directly over the flame.

I didn't try but I think you couldn't. You can just pour in it boiled tea (as I use it and then pour tea into small cups for example when I meeting guests) or just put some tea leaves in it and pour boiling water.

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

The kettle is made exceptionally well so I don't see why not. I think that this would be overkill though. You don't need a temp gauge & ball valve for hot sauce. In any event, cheers!
