Our Comprehensive Guide to Pool Heaters

When purchasing a pool heater, understanding the types and proper sizing is crucial. Residential pool heaters typically fall into two main categories: gas-fired and electric resistance. Both types offer features like dual thermostats for even heating and automatic timers for consistent operation.

Solar pool heaters are a cost-effective option for warming your pool without adding to your energy bills. However, they generally can't heat water above 85–90°F, depending on sunlight and seasonal conditions. Ultimately, the right heater for you will depend on factors such as your pool's size, how often you use it, your local climate, and your desired water temperature.

A Quick Look at the History of Pool Heaters

Pool heaters debuted commercially in the 1960s, revolutionizing outdoor swimming and extending seasons. Since then, technology has advanced dramatically—today’s units reach up to 99% efficiency compared to earlier models below 80%. Modern heaters come in gas, electric, and solar types, built with enhanced safety features for year-round use.

General Types of Pool Heaters

Installing a pool heater extends your swim season well beyond May to September. Heaters work with existing pool equipment to maintain perfect water temperatures despite cooler weather. Their energy-efficient designs transform your backyard into a warm oasis regardless of outside temperature.

Here are the three main types:

Gas Heaters

Efficient and affordable, gas heaters quickly warm pool water, usually within hours, adjustable for varied temperature needs. They’re popular for mid-summer to cool fall use. Though inexpensive to install, they are less cost-effective long-term and require maintenance every two years, typically lasting around five years.

Electric Heaters

Electric heaters have higher upfront costs but lower operating expenses due to high efficiency. Properly installed units last 10+ years and provide reliable heating, ideal for energy-conscious homeowners. They take longer to heat and are less efficient in cold, dry environments but save money over time.

Solar Heaters

Ideal for sunny climates, solar heaters offer eco-friendly, cost-efficient heating with minimal maintenance and around a 10-year lifespan. Their performance depends on sunlight, generally heating pools to 85–90°F. For hotter temps or cloudy days, pairing with gas or electric backup heaters ensures consistent warmth year-round.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Pool Heater

Two main factors to consider:

● Fuel Source: Natural gas or electric? Consider availability on your property.

● Cost: Upfront vs. ongoing running costs.
● Pool Size and Usage: Size your heater appropriately for your pool’s volume and how often you swim.

● Manufacturer and Warranty: Choose trusted brands with solid coverage.

Pool Size

Heaters are sized by BTUs needed to raise your pool’s temperature 1°F per hour. Multiply your pool’s gallons by 8.34 to calculate BTU requirements. For example, a 20,000-gallon pool needs roughly 166,800 BTUs. We recommend slightly oversizing for better performance.

Location and Climate

Consider local temperatures and fuel availability. Gas heaters excel in cold climates but cost more to run. Electric heaters suit warmer regions and require less maintenance. Outdoor installations need weather protection. Consult a professional familiar with regional conditions.

Cost

Balance price and quality carefully. Account for energy prices and efficiency ratings. Natural gas or propane often cost less than electricity but factor in lifespan and maintenance.

Energy Efficiency

Check the Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating to gauge year-round heater performance. Higher ratings mean better efficiency and savings.

Maintenance

Regular upkeep is vital. Inspect heating elements and water flow annually to maintain efficiency and prolong lifespan.

Expected Lifespan

● Gas heaters: 5–10 years

● Electric heaters: 10–15 years
● Solar heaters: 10+ years

Choosing the right pool heater requires weighing all pros and cons. Don’t worry—we’re here to help you decide and professionally install the perfect system.
