Airspirit... how is this heat being put into the water though? The impeller and casing are made from polypropylene, and the impeller shaft is ceramic and is "attached" to the motor with a magnetic field... the motor, which is the thing making all of that damn heat is never in contact with the water. Like I said, I want some numbers.

That I concede... it's just a question of how much......
