Description
The SP-1200KTi Titanium Swimming Pool Heat Exchanger is a high-capacity shell-and-tube heat exchanger designed for efficiently transferring heat between boilers, hot water systems, steam circuits, and swimming pools or spas. With a rated capacity of 1,200,000 BTU/hr, titanium construction, and a spiral-twisted corrugated tube design, it provides reliable heat transfer and corrosion resistance for demanding pool heating applications.
Titanium is particularly well suited for saltwater and chlorinated pool systems, where corrosion resistance is critical. The SP-1200KTi features 2 1/2" pool-side and 2" hot-side FPT connections, a 190 PSI design pressure, and can be installed horizontally or vertically. A same-side port version is also available for installations where connection layout is a consideration.
Key Features of the SP-1200KTi Titanium Pool Heat Exchanger
-
1,200,000 BTU/hr Heat Transfer Capacity — Designed for high-capacity swimming pool and spa heating applications where substantial heat transfer is required.
-
Titanium Construction — Titanium provides excellent corrosion resistance and is especially recommended for saltwater and chlorinated pool systems.
-
Spiral-Twisted Corrugated Tube Design — The specially designed tubes promote high fluid velocity and turbulence, helping improve heat transfer efficiency while maintaining reliable performance.
-
High-Flow Design — Supports up to 224.06 GPM on the pool side and 30.19 GPM on the hot-water side, making the unit suitable for large pool heating systems.

Applications of the SP-1200KTi
The SP-1200KTi is designed for high-capacity pool and spa heating systems that require efficient indirect heat transfer between a heating source and pool water. Its titanium construction makes it especially suitable for applications where corrosion resistance is important.
Swimming Pool Heating：Use the SP-1200KTi to transfer heat from a boiler, hot-water loop, or other heating source to large swimming pools. Its 1,200,000 BTU/hr capacity makes it suitable for high-demand pool heating systems.
Saltwater Pool Heating：Titanium is highly resistant to corrosion and is an excellent choice for saltwater pools. The SP-1200KTi helps isolate the heating circuit from aggressive pool water while providing efficient heat transfer.
Spa and Commercial Aquatic Facilities：The heat exchanger can be used for heating spas, commercial pools, aquatic facilities, and other large water-recreation systems where reliable and continuous heat transfer is required.
Boiler-to-Pool Heat Transfer：The SP-1200KTi can transfer heat indirectly from a boiler or hot-water heating loop to pool water. This allows the heating source and pool water to remain in separate circuits.
Steam-to-Pool Heating：For systems using steam as the heat source, the heat exchanger can provide indirect heat transfer between the steam circuit and pool water when properly sized and installed for the application.
High-Flow Pool Heating Systems：With large connections and high allowable flow rates, the SP-1200KTi is suitable for larger pool circulation systems where both heating capacity and hydraulic flow requirements must be considered.
FAQ and Support
Tips for installation:
This product can be installed either vertically or horizontally. Also, be sure to install it in a way that allows a counter flow pattern for maximum heat efficiency. Click here for a reference picture on how to mount your Swimming Pool Heat Exchanger. Install heat exchanger downstream of pool filter/pump in counter-flow for max efficiency. Compatible with solar, boiler, wood furnace; supports horizontal/vertical mounting. Ensure boiler water is assisted, prevent air locks, control pool pump via thermostat before exchanger.
