Inground Pool Heaters & Heat Pumps

If you want to open your swimming pool early in the spring or keep it open later in the fall, an above ground or inground swimming pool heater or heat pump is an essential piece of equipment. More importantly, a pool heater or heat pump allows you to take full advantage of the precious few swimming days – and more notably, evenings that are available to you – especially if you live in a colder weather climate. A heater or heat pump can allow you to take full advantage of the significant investment in your backyard!

But why would you choose one over the other? Which one is right for your pool? To help you make the best choice, we’ll dive into the differences between the two.

Gas Powered Above Ground & In Ground Pool Heaters

The most popular choice for heating inground pools, these pool heaters rely on either Natural Gas (NG) or Propane Gas (LP) to heat the water in your swimming pool. These styles of heaters have a lower up-front cost and can quickly bring your pool temperature up – and they operate efficiently in any temperature. Because they are powered by gas, they can heat your swimming pool quickly – depending on the BTU rating of the heater. The higher the BTU rating, the more water it can handle – and the faster it can raise the water temperature!

Electric Heat Pumps for Above Ground & Inground Swimming Pools

Swimming pool heat pumps work by drawing in the heat generated by the heat pumps’ motor and the ambient air surrounding the unit. This air circulates around an evaporator coil, and the gathered heater is then transferred to your pool water. This process is very similar to an air conditioner that is working in reverse. You’ll pay for the electricity to run the pump, but that’s it. Also, there are fewer moving parts in a pool heat pump, so they typically require less service and tend to last longer. There are a couple of downsides, however. The typical initial investment for swimming pool heat pumps is more expensive, and they typically don’t work very well when temperatures drop below 50 degrees. Additionally, the “on-demand” performance simply will not be there since a heat pump requires a long or constant running time to generate heat. If you are looking for instant heat after a long workday, a heat pump is not for you – especially if you are in a cooler climate.

When choosing the best above ground or inground pool heater or heat pump for the pool, you’ll want to evaluate factors such as water surface area, the number of gallons of water in your pool, seasonal temperatures, altitude, desired BTU output, how quickly you want the water to heat and more. Bigger is normally better, so if your pool is in between BTU sizes, always choose the higher BTU for better overall performance. Also, it is highly recommended to invest in a high-quality Micro-Bubble Solar Cover from Doheny’s to make sure to keep all the heat that you paid for inside the pool when it is not in use!
