I do not heat my water, I cool it to just above freezing. I found this produces much smaller particle size than room temp. or hot water. Use a centrifical pump with a flow meter, and continually flow the water through the chamber. They you will likely not have to heat the water, in fact the water will come out warm. Produces more consistant results and more consistant particle size than using the batch method, in which the votlage, current, ppm and temperature are continuously changing.
