Hydroquip 12-0010-K Square Flange Heater Element 5.5kw

Product Description

The HYDROQUIP 12-0010-K is a square flange heater element rated at 5.5 kilowatts, designed for use in hot tub and spa heating systems. It serves as a direct replacement for the original heater elements found in Brett Aqualine EM-201 and EM-203 heaters. The flanged design provides a secure, sealed mount to the heater housing, and the kit includes nuts, bolts, and an o-ring for a complete installation. This element is installed by qualified spa or HVAC service technicians working on residential hot tub equipment.

This element is a documented replacement for Brett Aqualine EM-201 and EM-203 heater assemblies, specifically as found on PDC Deluxe hot tubs. It is not compatible with vertical low-flow heater configurations. Although the element itself may appear similar, low-flow heater models do not use a flanged element and require a different part. Confirm the heater model and configuration before ordering to ensure correct fitment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified spa technician or licensed electrician familiar with high-wattage heating elements. Disconnect all power to the spa at the disconnect panel before beginning any service work on the heater assembly. Ensure the o-ring is properly seated and all fasteners are tightened evenly to prevent leaks before restoring power. Verify heater model and flow configuration prior to installation to confirm this flanged element is the correct type for the system.
