13000 BTU Above Ground Pool Heater 3500 Gallon Electric Heat Pump Pool Heaters 120v High Efficiency COP 4.3 Energy Save 43% WiFi Control

This pool heat pump has been a anmzin upgrade for the swimming season. Once installed, it steadily brought the water temperature up and maintained it efectively without the high costs typically like with gas heaters. I have 15000 gallon above-ground pool and it provides reliable heating. One feature I really appreciate is the WiFi connectivity, which allows temperature adjustments and scheduling directly from a smartphone. The unit runs surprisingly quietly for a pool heater, and the titanium heat exchanger gives added confidence for long-term use in both freshwater and saltwater pools. Installation was straightforward for anyone familiar with basic pool plumbing. The heating performance is consistent, and the ability to both heat and cool the water is a nice bonus during extreme weather conditions. It does take some time to raise water temperature, as expected with heat pumps, but once the desired temperature is reached, it maintains it efficiently and economically. If you’re looking to enjoy your pool earlier in the spring and later into the fall without excessive utility costs, this unit is a worthwhile investment.

Purchased the 58k BTU model for a 24’ x 54” above ground pool. After much research, this unit appeared to have the best performance, warranty, and value when compared to similar class competitive products. The unit was well packaged and appears very robust and well made with quality materials. It installed easily in a weekend with parts available from your local hardware. It is extremely quiet and can’t be heard over my 1.5HP Hayward filter system. It did leak at first start up. I found the factory installed water adapters were loose. They are designed to seal by o-ring, but I added some thread sealant anyway and torqued them down. No more leaks. Their customer support team is extremely responsive, which helped solidify I made the right decision. So far, the heating performance is as expected. There are many factors that affect how quickly the pool will heat. You also need to be grounded with the right expectation. If you want to heat your pool temp up by 20+ degrees in a cold climate within 4 hours, you’re wasting your money. Go get a gas unit and watch the dollars flows. If you want to be realistic in how much you can heat and how quickly, this is the perfect unit for you. The one thing that could be improved is the app. I would love to see them develop their own app to get similar function as what you get on the unit interface.

Let me start off by saying I am replacing a 9kw electric heater with this heat pump. While it is 220v and pulls 40amps when heating, I do get a significantly higher temperature rise and I am not required to run my pump or heater 24/7 as I can raise the pools temperature by 20 degrees in just a few hours. I installed this heat pump on an 8’ stock tank. This tank is roughly 600gallons (way below rated water capacity for this heat pump). Initially I was unable to get any temperature rise out of the heat pump so I added valves to the inlet and outlet on the heater to throttle water flow and even then I am only able to get a maximum of a 3 degree rise. The data plate states RLA as 7 amps and some change but I am reading 9-10amps. Add this with the 4-6amps of my variable speed pump running 24/7 and I am having a hard time justifying that this is a more comfortable or efficient option.

This thing is super quiet and warms quickly (76 to 85 in less than 9 hours.) We had an issue with flow pressure and had to reach out to customer service. They responded almost immediately, registered my device, and helped get us squared away by having us add another valve in the bypass pipe. It was an easy fix and their support via email was remarkable. The set up was simple and loading the app on our phones wasn't required to run it but I makes it easier. Overall it's a great economical product.

I ordered the 40,000 btu heater on a Tuesday at 6:00 pm. It was in my driveway the next day at 1:00 pm! (It shipped from a location 90 miles away, but still impressive!) It was packaged nicely in two heavy cardboard boxes with foam pads on bottom and top. I saw zero shipping damage. The shipper did leave it lying on the end - even though the box is cleary marked with a "THIS SIDE UP". This could be important since it has an oil-filled compressor. Just be sure to let it sit correctly oriented for at least an hour before powering it on. There are two handles built into the cabinet for easy moving, but it's pretty heavy. Not a big factor in my choice, but i did like the grey color better than white or black. The fit and finish on the cabinet is very good. It is a very nice-looking unit. It came with two 1.5" pvc adapters, so it was easy to plumb to my existing plumbing. I was also pleased to find that the power cable was already installed and ready to connect. It even had terminals attached but I cut it off to the length I needed. This made wiring to my existing breaker a 5-minute job. There is a control panel (thermostat) mounted to the side with a protective hinged cover. The control panel is backlit but the controls are a little cheap feeling and the icons are tiny. I would give it a 1/2-star knock for this, but overall I'm good with 5-stars. The control panel can be used to change the set point, set the clock, and change modes. You can also program a schedule, but i have yet to do that from the control panel. There also seems to be a troubleshooting menu, but I haven't looked into that. My favorite way to interface with this heater is with the wifi app. It's one of the easiest wifi appliance apps I've set up. You can control most features with the app from anywhere. It also has a query screen where you can see water temps, if the compressor is running, if there is water flow through the unit, etc. This could be a valuable troubleshooting tool. You can set up a schedule from the app, but it's not as full-featured in this department as I'd like. I tried the heater on the first night. The outside temps fell down to about 62F, and the water was 91F the next morning. We kept the solar blanket on overnight as well. By the 10:00 am the water was 93F. The outside temp got up to about 86F at peak. I then tried the cooling and it switched back quickly and started cooling it down. Our pool is in-ground 12,000 gallon, so it will take hours for a heater like this to make significant changes, but it seems to be doing what a 40,000 btu heat pump should do. This heat pump is VERY QUIET! The little noise it makes is a pleasant hum... .mostly just the fan blowing is what you hear. When in heat mode, very cool air is being exhausted from the unit, which could be good or bad depending on its location (vise versa when in cool mode). This isn't a ding, just a heads-up. I solidly recommend this brand. If I have any issues. I will update.

I installed it recently and so far it has been working very well. It heats the water faster than I expected, and the app is easy to use. Great value for the money.

I purchased a different brand heat pump for my hottub and I had to return it because of how loud it was (its fan sounded like one of those bounce house blowers, it was obnoxious)...I was pleasantly surprised that this unit was no louder than a small window a/c unit, perhaps even quieter. The fan is basically silent, the only thing you can hear is the compressor but it seems they install a sound blanket around the compressor making the unit run as quiet as possible. The heat it outputs is beyond adequate for my ~200 gallon hottub, when not in use the unit only needs to run for 25-40 minutes every 6-7 hours! When in use, it has more than enough power to keep up even with the lid removed on the coldest of nights (for my location, high 30s-low 40s)...this is exactly what I wanted becuase the original electric heater on my hottub was very weak and the water would become luke warm quickly with the jets on cover off on those cold nights and I would need to get out. The defrost mode seems to work well, only pausing heating for a minute or two to thaw out and then going right back to heating. No doubt this unit is going to save on electricity with how well it heats and how little it needs to run to keep temp on my hottub. I have only two minor gripes. 1. The app control is hit or miss, doesnt connect unless im near the unit despite being paired to my router. But again, this is minor because I dont expect the need to monitor or control my hottub unless im there in person. 2. The default temperature differential was set at 4 degrees from factory. The manual provided gives zero info on how this can be changed. I.E. if its set to 104, it will let the water drop all the way to 100 before restarting to heat back up to 104. Reaching out to the seller, they were able walk me through a secret menu on the display to alter this setting. This secret menu seems to have a long list of different settings that can be adjusted. I asked the seller if they could provide data on what all these other settings do, and they seemed to not want to tell me... asking "what else do you need to adjust". This unit isnt cheap and I paid for and OWN IT. What I want is a list of what all the settings are on something that is now mine, it doesnt matter if I need to change anything else right now. All of these settings should have been outlined in the manual, i shouldnt have to pull teeth to find out what they are. The controller inside the unit looks like its made by some other company, so I might see if I can find more info on it that way. Deducting a star for this headache. Overall a great experience.

This heater/cooler is perfect for our in-ground pool. We purchased it last winter to warm the pool up and make it usable during the winter and now we are using it again to cool the pool from the Florida heat to make it refreshing again. It was super easy to install and came with good directions. It was shipped fast and well protected from damage. About a month ago we were having trouble with the display screen and customer support sent a new screen in days and I was able to get it back up and running in 20 minutes. Customer support was very easy to work with and extremely helpful. I would certainly recommend this product.

Love it!!! Best part: it runs on regular 120V outlet, however the current draw is near 15AMP max so don't plug anything else heavy on the same socket. Used it on average 2 times a week for 4 months on a 18ft x 9ft pool with no issues. We live in the Pacific Northwest so going from 66°F to a comfortable 84°F would take about 3 days of heating - 12 hours each day - in mid July. We got the heater up to as high as 94°F. Yes, you need to keep the heater running overnight and where we live the electricity rate is cheaper at night too.

This is a great unit when properly matched to the pump and pool size. It seems to be most effective at around 600 GPH, so a bypass system is recommended if your pump flows faster than that. The pool should ideally be under 5,000 gallons (based on my personal experience). Note: A solar cover that completely covers the pool is essential. My pool is just over 5,000 gallons. I needed two of these units connected in parallel with a bypass system. After three days of varying temperatures, the pool has consistently stayed at 86°F. I’m looking forward to testing the “chilling” mode during the next heat wave. The unit draws 7 amps, with a slightly higher surge when the compressor turns on. Running it on an isolated circuit is ideal. Personally, I would not run it on the same circuit as any other appliances. Customer service was great—very quick, responsive, and friendly. I had a few issues during setup and installation, and they went above and beyond to ensure I was taken care of. They even proactively offered solutions without me having to ask.

It does work well. I was very surprised after 5 to 8 hours my pool (5000 gallons - round) was 90 F. Before it was 72 or less. The only problem you may encounter is the size of the hose. If your pool is a large size above ground. And you have a pump >1500hp plus a sand filter and a chlorinator, make sure to follow the scheme provided for in-ground pool. Measure the size of the extra hose you will need based on the location you will put the heat-pump. The hose size is 1 1/2 but the tiger flex. Remember there is circumference and diameter. The adapter that comes with the heat-pump will be too small in case your hose connection is made by tiger flex hose. You will need to make it work but connecting small parts to a large part. I will add a photo or I will make a movie to clarify my point. But overall, the heat-pump was a great surprise. Pool is super warm and I hope to extend its use until fall.

The product quality is very good, suitable for camping use

The packaging of this product is very good, and the logistics is also very fast. The pool heater is very convenient to use, and the effect of heating water is very good and fast.
