To install your pool heat pump or heater, place the unit on a stable surface with good air circulation, connect it to the plumbing system and a compliant power supply, perform a test run by adjusting the temperature, and check the system for leaks and safety. Find out more.
To determine the number of BTUs needed to heat your pool, a 20,000-litre pool would require a heater of around 200,000 BTUs, a 20,000-litre to 40,000-litre pool would require between 200,000 and 300,000 BTUs, and a pool of 40,000 liters or more would require between 300,000 and 400,000 BTUs, depending on the desired efficiency.
Pool water heaters require little maintenance: check that pipes and fittings are tight and that there are no leaks. When shutting down, make sure there's no water left in the system before covering it for the winter.
The water heater is fast and efficient, heats water quickly but costs more in energy, making it ideal for occasional use or in colder regions. A heat pump, on the other hand, is more economical in the long term, maintains pool temperature over time, but is slower and performs better in moderate climates, above 10°C. It's ideal for frequent use, despite a higher initial cost.
