Electric pool heater

En Ok Pool renovation and within Pool equipment and from the section of Climatized pool We present the page where we provide you with information on the Electric pool heater.

Electric pool heater

Electric heaters are used to heat pool water using electrical energy. In addition, electric pool heaters heat and maintain pool water with a great quality/price ratio.

How the electric pool heater works

• To begin with, an electric pool heater consists of a thermal electric resistance that heats up when current is applied to it.
• It also has a panel to regulate the temperature that will allow the water to increase to a temperature of 35°-40°c.
• And finally, the pool heater comes equipped with a thermostat, which will stop operation when reaching the indicated temperature.

NOTE: On the other hand, our recommendation to be able to maintain the pool water at the desired temperature is install some kind of pool cover

Beware the pool maintenance when air conditioning it, since by heating the pool water there is a greater chance that in the long run algae will proliferate in the pool and consequently we will have the green pool water.

Advantages of electric pool heater

• The first advantage of the pool heater is its cability to increase pool water temperature effectively and quickly (reaches higher temperature and faster than a bomba de calor).
• Furthermore, this equipment allows your installation is in quite small spaces.
• Plus, The installation of the equipment is very simple, either in direct filtration output or through bypass.
• As regards the maintenance of the electric pool heater is minimum.
• It really is one of thes systems pool heating more economical (quite more than one pool heat pump).
• In conclusion, it is a very good product considering its quality/price ratio.

Disadvantages of electric pool heater

• In any case, although the investment of the device is much lower than the other possible methods for heating the pool, it has a higher electrical consumption than the other systems.

Electric pool heater consumption

Specifically, The electric pool heater provides 1kW for each kilowatt (kW) consumed while the bomba de calor It provides approximately 5kW.

Features and types of pool heaters

The differentiation between one heater or another is basically determined by the following distinctive characteristics: manufacturer, exchanger material, type of thermostat, equipment power and type of electrical connection.

Below, we detail more specifically the different characteristics that electric pool heaters can have:

Material of electric pool heaters

• First of all, we have to determine the material full Pool heater casing: aluminum, stainless steel, plastic, composite material…
• Second, the exchanger material (also said resistance of the electric pool immersion heater), that is, the resistance that heats the water. Thus, it can be made of: stainless steel or titanium (depending on the use).

Suggestions for choosing the material according to the use and the pool:

• If our idea is to extend the swimming season, our recommendation is a stainless steel electric pool heater. This choice would also work if it is located in an area that can receive blows.
• On the other hand, in the case of wanting to heat the water of an above-ground pool The alternative would be to choose a plastic electric pool heater.

Electric pool heater power

To ensure the required power We will have to carry out a small calculation using the following formula:

[(Pool volume x dif.T) x 1.4] / T.

T= Maximum desired time to reach the ideal temperature.

T Diff = the temperature difference between the start temperature and the desired temperature.

Finally, we must ensure that Our electrical installation has enough amperage to withstand the power to heat the pool water.

Other features of pool heaters

• Firstly, we have as a characteristic of the pool heater the size of the team: conditional on power and form.
• Asimimo, we have equipment in fL shape or straight: There are heaters in L or straight.
• Number of resistances of the electric pool heater (one by two).
• If we prefer a digital or analog thermostat.
• Fixing the device: that is, if it will be located on a wall or vertical support or instead it should be installed horizontally.
• On the other hand, verify the minimum tolerable flow (depending on the pool pump)
• Depending on the electrical installation, the power supply pool heater It must be single-phase or triphasic.

Our recommendation is that If you are thinking of purchasing an electric pool heater contact us without any kind of commitment.

Electric floating pool heater

Next, we present the floating electric immersion water heater.

In any case, it should be noted that there are various types of floating electric heaters, which vary depending on their size, design and properties, although in general the level of quality is good in all products.

Installation of electric pool heaters

Installation steps for electric pool heaters

• The heater is installed in-line or by-pass in its filtration circuit (before any water treatment device), in the technical room.
• The electric heater is therefore placed between the filter and the pump, on the one hand, and through the immersion nozzles, on the other.
• However, the heater must be placed ahead of treatment systems such as electrolysis or ionizers.
• The heater is powered by the electrical circuit of your home, single-phase or three-phase depending on the power.
• The heated water must reach the pool as directly as possible to avoid possible losses.
• Simply based on the design of your technical room and the available space. You can choose between one vertical or horizontal fixation and in L shape o straight.
• Check that you have access to the thermostat in the configuration you have chosen. However, most pool heaters are easily reversible.
• It is also advisable to install it at a low point and equip the siphon inlets and outlets so that the heater can remain submerged in the water.

Electric heater installation in a pool with salt

On the other hand, if you use a salt chlorinator As a pool disinfection system and you want to heat your pool with an electric heater, it is better to choose a titanium one. to ensure proper functioning of the equipment.

And, as a note, when using electric heating with a salt pool, note that you will have two resistances, so you can save on electricity consumption when heating the pool water.
