Details

HydroQuip Baptismal Series 5.5kW Booster Heater Kit (48-0146-K) — The HydroQuip 48-0146-K booster heater kit is a replacement or service component for compatible baptismal heating equipment that uses the 5.5kW booster heater arrangement. A booster heater is a system-specific part; it should not be confused with a complete baptismal control package or with one of HydroQuip’s portable immersion heaters. HydroQuip’s baptismal parts catalog identifies this exact kit, and its current product listing describes the kit as supplied with a cord and plug.

Choosing the Correct Replacement

Check whether the existing equipment is designed to accept a booster heater, including its heater connections, available electrical supply, required water flow and mounting arrangement. Do not use the 5.5kW figure as a universal fitment guarantee. HydroQuip offers several baptismal heater configurations, and the exact booster kit connection details are not fully specified in the available public listing. The installer should verify the original part number and control arrangement before substituting a component.

Installation & Safety

Disconnect all sources of electrical power before service. A qualified installer must confirm correct branch-circuit sizing, connection method, bonding, water-flow interlocks and any existing high-limit protection. Do not operate a booster heater without the prescribed circulation and safety devices.
