★★★★★
We used this the first time at a horse show this weekend. The setup and use was super easier than expected and the horses enjoyed the hot water.
★★★★★
The Instahot Pro system is perfect for our setup. We do not have a barn with a wash stall so this is the next best thing to keep my horses comfortable during bathing. We have horses that do not like the cold temperature of our well water for bathing and this does the trick.
★★★★★
This is a great system, easy to assemble, easy to use and my horses love me for using it!

Key benefits
No More Cold Baths!
The Insta-Hot® Pro eliminates uncomfortable, cold baths by instantly increasing water temperature up to 96°F warmer at up to 3 gallons per minute. You can use your Insta-Hot® Pro to bathe your horses and pets with comfortable warm water, wash your truck and trailer, and even de-ice buckets in the wintertime.
Enhanced Pro Features
Features a LED screen to track water temperature along with adjustable push-in-lock knobs to set water temp and gas pressure. The safety tilt switch ensures shutoff if the unit tips from a standard position along with an automatic safety shutoff after 20 minutes of non-use.
Quick And Convenient Set-Up
Setup is quick and hassle-free. Operation is simple. Simply attach a hose from the incoming water source, start the battery igniter (batteries not included), and have hot water instantly. Control knobs regulate water temperature and flow. Select single or double burner for a wider temperature range depending on the amount of propane used.
Hot Water on the Go or at Home
The Insta-Hot® Pro cart features a safety design that stabilizes the propane tank with a recessed holder within the cart's base. The cart allows you to easily move the unit to and from your horse trailer or barn, and while away at shows or hitting the trail. The unit takes up little space in the tack room or wash stall. Use at home in the barn, at horse shows, garage, shed, or the camper, wherever and whenever needed. The cart features 8" solid all-terrain wheels. This cart fits our Insta-Hot® 2 unit as well as our Insta-Hot® Pro unit and comes adjusted to the Insta-Hot® 2 dimensions. To adjust to the Insta-Hot® Pro unit dimensions, simply remove the screws on the bottom peg bar to the frame and move down to the lowest setting and re-attach the screws.
Insta-Hot® Pro Requirements
The Insta-Hot® Pro requires a minimum of 20 PSI water pressure to run correctly. The safety tilt feature will not allow the unit to ignite if the unit is not 100% upright. Requires (4) AA batteries (not included). The unit should be stored in a dry and protected environment when not in use, drained completely and lines blown out before exposed to freezing temperatures.
You can use any standard ½” or ¾” hose with the unit (larger diameter hoses decrease the pressure more). Any standard hose nozzle can be used, but we recommend a brass twist hose nozzle due to pressure to the unit.
Note: Our units have been tested up to 2,000ft above sea level, and we only recommend using them below 2,000 ft for maximum performance. For every 1,000ft above the recommended 2,000 ft, there will be a 10% decrease in efficiency and performance.
Accessories Included
Removable drain valve comes in handy to avoid water pipe and regulator damage caused by freezing weather. Includes: Insta-Hot® Pro unit, gas regulator line, 25' hose with brass nozzle, universal brass couplers, plumbers tape, wall mount plugs and easy-to-follow instructions.
Simple Use With Single Tank Of Propane
Operates off any standard 20lb propane tank for up to 18 hours of use. Propane tank not included.
2-Year Limited Warranty
The warranty takes effect on the date of installation of the product, or 30 days after the date of purchase, whichever occurs first, and is effective until the specified anniversary of such date as follows: Item period of coverage: heat exchanger 2 years, all other parts 2 years, included accessories (shower head, hose, regulator, etc. 30 days). Need replacement parts or repairs? Call EccoTemp at 866-356-1992.
The Insta-Hot® Pro is not designed for freezing temps. The warranty is void if left fully undrained and if pipes freeze and crack. To avoid cracked pipes, bring your unit inside and drain pipes by making sure the drain valve is open. You will also need to unhook the out-going water line to make sure the water is drained from the heat exchange unit. Insta-Hot® Rapid Freeze Fix can be used to prolong the life of your unit and “fix” cracked pipes temporarily.

Can't get it to warm up
"Was super excited about this, but cannot get it to warm up, the unit clicks, but the temperature just bounces between 43 degrees and 48 degrees and will not warm up any more than that. We have turned the knobs, the propane is fully on, but it will not work. I tried using the online customer service and sending a video to show what the unit was doing, but the chat would only send pictures. The cart did not come with all the proper bolts either, we were missing a few bolts. Very disappointed especially for the cost."

Insta-Hot Pro
"I'm so happy with my purchase! It was easy to set up and start using the day it arrived. I used it to melt ice in my horse's water tanks and it was very quick to reach extremely hot temperatures. I also plan to use it in the summer for bathing horses as well. It was was worth every penny!"

"I originally got this for my horses, but also for washing our beer kegs. It works great! The cart is really nice!"
Works GREAT but needed Help getting it working!
"It is so nice being able to give me horse a warm bath! The Insta-Hot Pro does just that, but I had to get technical support to get it working. I read about the minimum water pressure required so I thought I was all set, but when I couldn't get the water to stay warm, I found out my water pressure was too high. I was emailed a more detailed troubleshooting guide, but it took one of the technicians to tell me about the water pressure issue. They told me I needed to turn the water pressure down and the heat up. By doing that, I finally got the unit to work. I have only used it a couple times so far so I can't comment on durability. For the price, it better last a LONG time!"
Perfect

"Best thing ever invented! I love that I can have hot water anywhere! I use it for more that just washing large animals. It's a super easy system to use!"
