Typical Heat Transfer from a boiler: 25 kW
The Bowman EC80-5113-1 is a compact, yet highly efficient heat exchanger, that is designed for heating spas, hot tubs and domestic swimming pools up to 50 m³, via a boiler heat source. It features ‘Universal Fit’ composite end covers, for easy installation into pool or spa pipework and a choice of either a titanium, cupro-nickel, or stainless steel tube core.
Note – All dimensions in mm (except threaded connectors)
*Not suitable for use on pools fitted with salt water chlorinators or salt water pools.
As the graphs and table above illustrate, providing the right water flow volume is vital to the performance of the heat exchanger. If the flow rate of either the hot water supply, or the pool water circuit is too low, the heat exchanger will not perform at its designed efficiency and will be unable to transfer all the available heat energy in to the pool water.

The EC80-5113-1 is supplied with ‘Universal Fit’ composite end covers, designed for use with either 1.5” nominal pipe size (48mm O/D) or metric 50mm O/D pool pipework. The ‘socket union’ component enables either diameter to be accommodated, as shown on the following cross section illustration.
Refer to the following diagram for how to install the heat exchanger in the pool system. The heat exchanger can be mounted either horizontally or vertically as per the schematic.
