How big of a pool will it heat?

I have 2 on a 24 foot round pool and have to bypass them sometimes because it will heat the pool to over 90 degrees.

Sizing a heat pump for a pool requires the consideration of many factors. Location, average outside heat temps, exposure to wind etc. As a rough idea I would say for the average pool of 8000 gallons to a max of 10,000 gallons. Again this will differ according to the varying factors in the area where it is to be used.

The temperature here is in the 90's right now and the pool temperature is running around 84 to 88 degrees. I have a 8' x 32" pool.

I believe it is bigger. I have a 15'x30' oval pool and had to cut quite a bit. This type cover isn't the tie down though. This is a cover that floats on top of the water and traps heat. Your describing more of a winter cover.

We have a 10,000 gallon above ground pool and we live in WA. state where our summer's see sunshine about 65 percent of the time. We have 2 solar heaters and found that they raised the temp. about 7 degrees. You will have better insulation since yours in an in ground pool, but I don't know what to tell you for sure...Good luck!

I have a small 10 foot by 30 inch deep pool with the plastic see through hoses by Intex. The pump, pool and water heater work together very easily. You'll be up and running within 30 minutes.

Hi, it SORT of heats the water. The top 6 inches seem to be pretty warm! All in all, we continue to use it and would recommend it, but we realize that it won't fully heat our pool.

We have a 20' x 40' swimming pool and have left one in all summer. Works like a charm!

I have the 400, recommended by my pool guys. Probably has to do with the size of your pool, and the amount of water/ surface to be heated. We have had ours for three seasons now, love it!

I found it did heat the pool, but as the other person pointed out, it's a dark cover, which would cause heating either way. Generally the first foot of water is warmed. Our cover does sit on the surface of the water, though, which might help increase the heating. If your cover doesn't sit on the water's surface, the heating may be more limited.

This heater heats my 420 gallon spa ten degrees per hour for the 11 kw model. My concern about your application is that the heater is designed for very high flow from a spa pump and could be too fast for your pool. As I recall the flow is 60 gal/min.

I have this as a gift to my nephew who has a pool. It is not that large of a pool. They have not used it yet, so I'm. Not sure

The model is SG-TTW-12HC-26, it should heat up 400 ~ 700 sq.ft. However, it depends on various factors, like the insulation of the room, whether it is facing direct sunlight and so on.

Depends on a lot of factors, especially insulation but assuming its well insulated I'd say a 10x10 room would be a max size. It's more of a supplementary heat than a main heater... unless you're heating a dog house! ;)

I have an 18' round, 7800 gallon and I can keep the pool at 100+ if I choose in WV. But I have free gas from a well and when not in use I do keep a solar blanket on it. I have kept the pool hot tub temperature in late October when it gets cold.

We also have a 10,000 gallon pool and we use 2. They work well. Raises our temperature about 10 degrees in around 2 to 3 days. It will continue to rise as long as it's sunny.

I would get 2 of these kits for a total of 4 panels. My pool is 6500gals and one kit heats it perfect
