SOURCE: Fixing our hotel's Hayward CSPAXI55 spa heater.

You can probally get a manuel on line if you go through Hayward.
When he took the old one out he probally just wired the circut together where the temp assembly goes into the cabnet in the top right front of cabnet in the upper panel. Then the temp probe runs around the side to the water header or manifold. If this is in the orignal spot it is on the right of the heater and easy to find. I'm not sure but if the exchanger has been turned then it will be around the back side of the header and it will be on the left side of the heater. Geting a manuel for this is a good idea anyway, good luck.

SOURCE: what size breaker does the

It does make a difference as to input voltage. But usually at 11KW this would be a 220V unit and require a 50 amp breaker. 11,000W divided by 220VAC = 50 amps. 230 or 240V input the same 50 A breaker.

Thanks for choosing FixYa.

SOURCE: the breaker for my hot tub will not stay on. Could the breaker be bad?

Circuit breakers do wear out. The GFCI could also be bad. If it is neither of those the Hi Limit sensor may have failed, it is a safety switch which prevents normal operation of the spa if not functioning correctly. There could possibly be another electrical fault, the heater element could be compromised.

Hardwire or plug-in-outlet?
Where is the GFCI? On the outlet or on the breaker?

My leisure bay spa will not heat up and the heat light will not come on, everything is working great but just won't heat up.

Maybe fused or breaker needs check.
Thermostat could need clean or replacement.
Invite a spa technician to next party, this should fix it

Can I change out a Hayward H400ID with an electric heater for the spa only? If so what electric heater product brand would you recommned. Raypak?

Hayward has manuals for each type heater, gas and electric.
http://www.hayward-pool.com/prd/In-Ground-Pool-Manuals_10201_10551_14502_-1___I.htm
Hayward also has contact page, and can probably recommend correct change-over product.

You want to switch from propane to heat-pump type.

There are likely 3 areas of difference. Read each manual and generally look for 1) unit size and capability to match spa 2) pipe connections and sizes 3) Electrical requirement

From electrical standpoint, You need GFCI-protected line from circuit breaker box, or GFCI (arc-fault) breaker. This will prevent electrocution risk around spa.
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-GFCI.html

Wire sizes are based on volts and watt-rating of heater.
Each electrical device has rating plate showing volts and watts.
3500 watts divided by 240 volts = 14.5 amps so install double-pole 20 amp breaker and use 12 gauge wire.
1500 watts divided by 120 volts = 12.5 amps so install sinle-pole 20 amp breaker and 12 gauge wire.
