High volume water heating

[bcraig]

I just cant imagine taking a nice hot spa bath and breathing in all the chlorine as it evaporated off into my lungs, I woldnt go back for a second try

Most spa baths use chlorine and the ones that don't will use other chemicals that smell worse. There's never enough chlorine to really notice or at least irritate the user. I will also be using ozone to reduce the volume of chlorine needed which is more cost effective.

Lol why would this be a wind up?
Ozone and chlorine will manage legionella. You all act like spa baths don't exist..
Thank you for your suggestion of Andrews water heaters. I am looking through their massive selection of units.
All I was after was an insight into what people consider would be the most efficient method to achieve a temperature rise in the required time.
If it helps then let's say the water is stored at 60 degrees. Do you have any experience or educated advice towards a specific method/unit/combination of units for heating this water by a further 9 degrees at a rate of 80L/min.

Yes. Quite a lot.

But rather than try and guess at a solution for you you'd best be getting a suitably qualified consultant in to design this properly for you.

Doing a job like this on the cheap never ends well.

That's new Zealand. Doesn't count or even come into the equation in the UK.

Actually. I've just checked your ip.

Why are you asking a UK forum? Don't you trust kiwi plumbers?

I will most defiantly approach professionals when I decided to build this project and I'm not looking to build this on the cheap. I am trying to do as much research about potential setups for the best efficiency so I can educate myself and have a better idea of the ROUGH running costs to heat water in my hypothetical setup. When I eventually call on an engineer and begin to hand over my money I would like to be able to understand my options and the current technologies available.

Ignore everthhing else you may imagine. Just focus on the simple need to increase a mass of flowing water by 9 degrees at a rate of 80L/min. Do you know of a specific unit type that would be the most efficient to do this?, that you know of.

Wow I am beginning to think I should report you for trolling me. NZ doesn't haven't a forum to the scale of this one. I need a water heater.. It will be very likely that it will be sourced internationally..

It's called moderation pal. When something doesn't look right I look into it.

Report away. It only goes to me.....
