Model reference
AquaTop Quartz Platinum QPH-100 100 W Aquarium Heater
Model: QPH-100 (100 W)
The 2021 AquaTop QPH manual and 2022 Platinum cutsheet support the QPH-100 model, size and family control instructions. An exact-item image in the detailed model review supplies the separate carton and body-label observation. This is not confirmation of a present US seller, current lifecycle or the package a seller will ship.
This model lookup is separate from the questionnaire shortlist. It does not certify that this model meets your selected requirements.
Exact-model photograph is not verified. This reference lookup is text-only. The exact QPH-100 image and carton observation remain in the source-side review; no sibling or family image is substituted here.
The QPH-100 is AquaTop’s 100 W, 10-inch version. Its official family sources state 20–30 US gallons, while the exact-item carton image discussed in the model review says 25 gallons maximum; the page retains that discrepancy instead of silently replacing either value.

Documented model details
- AquaTop lists QPH-100 at 100 W and 10 inches, with an official 20–30 US gallon band; the exact-model carton shown in the review reads 25 gallons maximum, so the evidence remains explicitly in conflict.
- The QPH family instructions support full submersion inside an aquarium, vertical or horizontal mounting, fresh or salt water and a minimum water-level line.
- The family control is an adjustable analog dial with a stated 68–93°F range and heating indicator; the body is described as shatter-resistant quartz glass.
Limits to weigh
- The 30-gallon manufacturer band and 25-gallon carton maximum are unresolved. The saved assessment uses 25 gallons only as a conservative comparison ceiling, not as a correction to AquaTop’s published band.
- The documented 20-gallon lower edge cannot be enforced by the finder’s maximum-only volume rule; this reference must not be read as a match for below-band tanks.
- No numeric accuracy tolerance, shatterproof-body claim, impact rating or confirmed included guard is established. Current US availability and seller package are unknown.
Check before ordering
- Check that the actual unit and carton say QPH-100 / 100 W and UPC 810281019048; confirm current written AquaTop capacity guidance if the tank is above 25 gallons.
- Verify the physical electrical label, package contents, waterline and clearance for the 10-inch body before ordering or installing.
- Use an independent thermometer for actual water temperature; the dial range and indicator do not state measured accuracy.
