Mitch I saw your heater tech from your thread and read about a few more. Did you see the guy who drilled a PVC pipe multiple times to feed the PEX pipe through to form a coil? It was pretty slick. I bought some titanium heaters before I heard of this method, I may go the water heater closed loop before using my heaters I don't know yet. It's a solid idea for sure, Thanks

No I didn't see the PVC setup.
I had 3 titanium heaters and each one of them split open in the sump.
We're limited for electricity supply out here, so that was a consideration for me as well. We don't have the big 200 amp service available without major expense. We only have 75 amps.

I'll try and find the loop set up for you.
What kind of heaters did you have? I bought these:
800W - FINNEX DELUXE TITANIUM HEATING TUBE

I don't remember the name. I got them from Red Coral in Calgary before they went out of business, but they looked exactly the same as those Finnex and also came in a red box.
The black rubber end caps came off and exposed the wires inside. I'm surprised there was no electrical short fallout from that - including when I reached in the water to pull them out not realizing what had happened.
