30,000 BTU Electric Pool Heater for Above Ground Pool Swimming Pool Heat Pump Inground Pool Heater 120V 8,000 Gallon Heating or Cooling WiFi Control Schedule

Would definitely buy from these folks again. The documentation for the pool heater could be better, but the customer service more than makes up for it! My heater shipped displaying metric and wanted to switch to standard. I called and Jesse had them create a video showing how to do it. I received a link that afternoon, fixed! Speaking with a human is fast and easy!! Thanks Working as advertised. Quiet and effective even in Wyoming. The temperature differential ranges between three and four degrees depending on the day, but when it reaches the desired temperature it holds it well. Ran ours at 92 degrees. 18 foot x 52 inches above ground with an upgraded pump and hard piping. Must use an insulated cover at night, but we had a mild summer this year, with only a few days above 95 degrees. The whole family enjoyed the pool this year. That would not have been possible without this heater! Would have given this heater a five star but it could use an external antenna for the WiFi connection. I will find an extender for my home WiFi to keep it from dropping and having to reconnect daily. The heater works perfectly without it, but I enjoy being able to check or set the temperature from my phone.

Update: We were initially disappointed because we expected it to work in a handful of hours, like the video for the product shows. It does not. It absolutely will not heat that quickly, especially without a solar cover. That said, if you buy a quality solar pool cover and keep it on when you are not swimming, it will maintain bathwater temperatures in the summer and we got in the pool yesterday evening (October 7) at 88°, which is very comfortable and what we have it set to. We initially set it to 95° and that was too warm during the summer. How efficiently it works depends on average night time temperatures and if you run a fountain, that is going to bring the temperature down. If you leave the cover off one night, it can take anywhere from a few days to over a week for it to build up the heat again. It has some caveats, but for the price, we are pleased with this product. I didn't think it would work well as a season extender, but here we are. One week before our average frost date and still swimming! **********Original Review ************** Either that video review is misleading or I have a dysfunctional unit. I have had this unit hooked up for six days and while the water from the return is slightly warmer, I have not seen any remarkable change in temperature that could not be accounted for by the weather or the solar pool cover.

Installed on a 7000 gallon 18ft round above ground, took a long time to seem to work (nearly 24hr) but pool began to get noticably warmer. It took a few days but now pool is staying where we set it at 88° in 60-75° weather. One note, is that each time it is turned off even for a few minutes the outflow does take awhile to return to warm.

As much as we wanted to love this… it did not work for us. Never heated pool above 70 after 5 days of running consistently. We also have a solar cover and still did not heat properly. At one point it formed a huge ice block and we had to turn off and unplug. We have a 1500 filter and an 18ft above ground pool for reference. It also did not come with proper attachments so we were stuck trying to order additional attachments. Several attempts were made to contact customer service without any help. We had to make the decision to disconnect and return. I did give the product one star for ease of operation. Another helpful tip if you decided to purchase connect product to WiFi before taking to your yard to install… you need a strong connection to link devices.

Very quite well made unit. Quickly heated my 3600 gal pool to 85 deg. Stared with the 18000 BTU unit which was not sufficient for my climate which gets down to 50 deg at night. Jessie at customer service was fantastic with helping me get the right size unit. Would recommend getting a bigger unit than what you think you need if you live in a cooler climate.

So, far it’s been great. We live in Northern California and have had it for about 2 months now. It heats up our 12 foot round, 48 inches deep pool nicely. It takes a while, but it works! The regular pump has to be going and when we turn the heater on, it takes about a minute or so to look like it’s running. (The fan on it stars turning). But it does it’s job and we’re pleased with it.

It really works. It's been heating my above ground pool like a champ. I keeps it at about 77 degrees. I wish it could get just a little bit warmer, but so far I've been happy with it.

This is an updated review. When I received it, it wasn't quite heating the pool as much as I needed it to. Turns out it wasn't strong enough to heat a pool of my size. A rep with the company contacted me and offered to send me another model. They sent me another model that is now heating it the way that I want and I am very happy. While new one was being shipped, the rep even helped me research the necessary hardware I would need to get it connected to my pool when I received it. Very good customer service. Would definitely recommend buying from them.
