In order to reduce electricity consumption (and potentially reduce electricity expenses) it is advisable to turn off pool-heaters until the time at which the pool is to be used.
So as to have a pool at a suitable swimming temperature, it would be advisable to turn on the heater a number of hours before you intend to swim in the pool. A more amount of time your pool takes to heat thoroughly may be available in documentation you have regarding your pool.

i have a 5ft pool and have a intex 3kw heater how long will it take to heat pool to a good swimm tempature
The pool pump does suck the water from the pool. Then it goes thru the filter and (if you use have the following) thru the heater and chlorinator then back into the pool. So - nothing will keep it from sucking water from the pool - but that's a good thing. Now - if you set the valve to a different setting - then it might actually send the water to a waste line - maybe that's what you meant. If that's the case -then the pool pump will eventually drain your whole pool if you have it set to get the water from the bottom drain (another valve).
A pond heater is used to keep your pond from freezing solid in the winter. A frozen solid pond is bad for your pool liners, koi, and for some pool structures that may use cement.
Do you mean a pool that has a salt water generator? If so, any pool heater could be used.
no you need a stronger heater specifically designed for a swimming pool
The problem is not the heater. When was the last time that you cleaned the pool filter? Low or no water flow - no heat. Low flow = dirty filter or plugged pump or skimmer baskets. Ken
