I hear that it takes a full day to come up to temperature.
The amount of propane used for an above ground pool heater in Pennsylvania will vary depending on factors such as the heater's size, efficiency, frequency of use, and the temperature you set. On average, a propane pool heater can consume around 1-3 gallons per hour of operation, so for a season (roughly 3-4 months), you could estimate anywhere from 200-400 gallons of propane. It's best to monitor your usage to get a more accurate estimate.
You can find DIY blueprints for a wood-burning pool heater online on websites like Pinterest, Instructables, or YouTube. These platforms offer step-by-step guides with detailed instructions on building your own wood-burning pool heater using common materials and tools. Be sure to follow all safety guidelines and consult with a professional if needed.
Yes, carbon monoxide can be filtered out of the exhaust gas from a natural gas pool heater using various methods, such as catalytic converters or specialized filtration systems designed to capture harmful emissions. However, these systems must be properly designed and maintained to ensure effectiveness. It's also important to ensure that the pool heater itself is properly ventilated and maintained to minimize carbon monoxide production in the first place. Always consult with a professional for installation and maintenance recommendations.
Electric pool heaters use electricity to capture heat. As the pool pump circulates the water, it is drawn from the pool and through a filter and into the heat pump heater. The heater itself has a fan that pulls in outside air and pushes it over the evaporator coil. At this point liquid refrigerant in the evaporator coil absorbs the heat from the outside air converting it into a gas. The gas is then passed through the compressor where it increases the heat. This very hot gas is then sent through the condenser where the hot gas is transferred to the cool pool water circulating through the heater. The heated water is then returned to the pool.A gas pool heater on the other hand uses the gas directly to heat the water by fueling the combustion chamber.
The cost to heat a pool can vary depending on factors like energy costs and usage patterns. However, you can estimate the cost by calculating the BTU input per hour of the heater (399,000 BTU) and factoring in the energy cost per BTU in Pennsylvania. You can then multiply the cost per BTU by the number of hours required to heat the pool to 80 degrees Fahrenheit to estimate the total cost.
The amount of propane a 400,000 BTU pool heater will use depends on factors like the heater's efficiency and the temperature you desire. On average, a 400,000 BTU pool heater can consume around 4-5 gallons of propane per hour when running at full capacity.
You should first make sure yuor pool is compatible with a heater. You will also want to make sure you get the proper BTU for your pool size.

The sound you hear is probably air mixed with the water. The skimmer isn't filling completely because there is not enough water in the pool
Using a significant amount of water can tax the available flow, but most wells have considerably more water supply.
i would say yes, filling that much water at a time could run the well dry, at least for a couple of days. However, i assume it would depend on the size of the pool.
To calculate the cost of filling a 15x33 foot pool with a depth of 4 feet, first determine the volume of the pool, which is approximately 5,940 gallons. The cost to fill it will vary by location and water rates, but on average, water costs about $1.50 to $3.00 per 1,000 gallons. Therefore, filling the pool could cost between $8.91 and $17.82, depending on local water rates.
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
A pool plumbing diagram with a heater typically includes pipes that connect the pool to the heater, a pump to circulate water, a filter to clean the water, and valves to control the flow of water. The heater is usually placed after the filter and before the return to the pool.
The starting price at Leslie's Pool Supply for a spa heater is $197. The most expensive spa heater is $264. Shipping varies based on the price of the order.
