I bought the unit primarily as it’s a heat pump that runs off 110V. You can even power it using an extension cord (make sure it’s plugged into a GFCI). It heats my 4800 gal pool at least 8F degrees. Installation was super easy; I acquired the necessary connectors from the local home center.Support is also great, I had some temperature issues and the company was very responsive in working through them.All in all a good purchase and extended our spring swimming season by a month in the Midwest USA. We’re looking forward to the same extension in the fall.

Ruined Memorial Day. Device ices up immediately. Probably from low refrigerant from a leak. Poor quality control for so much money. Everything actually looks well built but the product I received was dead on arrival. Returning.

We have had this pump for a year now. I was skeptical about this pump when I purchased it, but it turned out to be the best investment for the summer. It works very well for our small 1,000-gallon pool (9'x7'x30"). We are located in the Northeast US, and our pool receives just a few hours of direct sunlight because of the surrounding trees. The pool was too cold to enjoy without a heater, even in the hottest days. Now water is heated up to 90F easily in a few hours. We don't use this heat pump when daytime temperatures drop below 70°F, so we have never experienced the frosting issues that other people complain about.My only complaint is that there is no automatic shutdown when the pool pump stops, nor automatic start when the pump starts, so even when there is no water flow, the pump still turns on and off frequently. We have an Intex pump that can't run 24/7 (10 hours max), so I have to turn both the heat and water pumps on manually early in the morning to have warm water by 11 AM and ensure the water pump is running all the time when the heat pump is on. The water pump can be easily scheduled with an additional smart switch but this heat pump must be turned on manually by pressing the button every time. It would be 5 stars if the auto on/off by water flow feature worked.The control panel is quite useless; the only buttons that are in use are on/off and temperature up/down.

I got this for our tiny little Intex pool. 10 ft diameter by 30in tall, with 1185 gallon capacity. We just used the crappy little filter pump that came with the pool with 330 GPH. My 2 and 5 year old were freezing in the unheated summer water and would want to get out after like 5 mins. This heater worked great for that.I spent some time researching tiny pool heaters and there appears to be only two extremes: at the low end are sous vide heaters that obviously can't heat any size pool and solar mats or at the other end of the spectrum are pool heaters that cost thousands of dollars. Nothing in between. I was on the verge of going down a rabbit hole making a homemade propane heater but then I took a chance on this. It was double the cost of the pool but it really was amazing. Every morning I turned on the heater and every afternoon by the time we were done with work and school/camp, the pool was 90-100 degrees. The kids spent hours in the pool. We were also able to extend the summer season by a few weeks with this. It is great.I can imagine if you had a small but not miniature pool and you bought this, it might not perform adequately. You need to keep your expectations in line with the specs. I didn't have any problems with it freezing, leaking, or anything else. My pool pump was annoying and could only stay on 10 hrs at a time. At first I was super careful to make sure I stopped the heater because I was afraid I would burn it out. But then one time I forgot and the heater just auto turned off when it reached the set temperature. So after that I just let it go. Worked great.I do have to say I always turned it off before anyone went in the water. Buying this random stuff online, I was a little worried about the danger of electricity and water. And I would have loved a GFCI plug like the pool filter has. I also didn't love having all these electric cords so close to the pool but I guess I could get longer hoses.

First off the 110v pool heater market is pretty much mostly junk. Don't expect this to be a fully functional year round heater to heat your 8000 gallon pool through the winter months, and I think you'll largely be happy with this unit.We are now halfway through our second summer with this heat pump. I'm using it in Calgary Canada, which is at a slightly elevated altitude (heat pumps are not as effective at higher altitudes), and our nights still get pretty cool, down to about 51 or 52 degrees, even in the height of summer. So I can't leave this thing on all night or it ices up. I usually turn it on about 10 in the morning and turn it off by 8 or 9 at night.We use it on a little 8 footer quickset pool for our small children. It'll heat that thing up from 70 to over 90 if you leave it on most of the day. The thermostat is completely unreliable, it has never worked correctly and it measures 10 degrees below the temperature sometimes, sometimes higher than the temperature. So you have to basically manually operate it, and you have to sometimes set the temperatures to weird numbers to get it to stay on. That part I hate. The instructions? Horrible. It also quickly rusted around the grates, but it's not that bad, it still looks half decent, and I leave it outside all summer uncovered. Store it in my heated garage in the winter months.As long as you don't use a filter pump that filters much higher than 750 gallons per hour, you could probably get away with using this on pretty much any size of pool, and it would do a good job. You are just limited by the flow, as if it was much higher than 750 gallons, it would probably ice up.It was a bit pricey (especially considering our currency differences + shipping), but it definitely heats the crap out of that pool and it keeps us happy as we get to use our pool lots compared to how frigid it always was before we had this heater. So it was worth every cent. Would recommend, but just understand its limitations and set your expectations accordingly.
