We highly recommend using a pool cover or solar blanket at night to reduce heat loss.

Again, you can still get a solar pool heater for use during the warm seasons then switch to a gas heater when there\u2019s less or no sunshine.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4fb509 uae-toc-hide-heading elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b4fb509\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Budget & Cost<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eba4c7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eba4c7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>There are two costs to consider when buying a pool heater: the initial cost and operational costs.\u00a0<\/b><\/p><p>The initial cost is the price of the heater. A solar heater is the cheapest option. You can get a small solar heater for an above ground pool for less than $100.\u00a0<\/p><p>However, costs can quickly rise when you order multiple panels for an in-ground pool. You can easily spend $2,000 or more for a complete high-performance solar heating system for an in-ground pool.<\/p><p><b>Gas heaters are the second most affordable pool heaters.<\/b> Prices start at around $1,500 for a 150K BTU gas heater. A 400K BTU gas heater will cost you between $2,500 and $3,000.\u00a0<\/p><p><b>Electric heat pumps are the most expensive, BTU for BTU.\u00a0<\/b><\/p><p>A 50K BTU heat pump can cost as much as $2,000. For $3,000 (the price of a 400K gas heater), you\u2019ll be lucky to find a 200K BTU heat pump.\u00a0<\/p><p>Where heat pumps win is in the running costs. Operating a heat pump is cheaper than operating a gas heater.\u00a0<\/p><p>A propane heater can be especially expensive to run.\u00a0<\/p><p>A solar heater wins both in the initial and running costs. It uses free energy from the sun and doesn\u2019t need electricity, at least not directly. You\u2019ll still need to run your pool pump to use the heater.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Here the bottom line:\u00a0<\/strong>If you are on a budget, get a solar pool heater. If you don\u2019t mind spending more in the beginning but would like to save money over time, get a heat pump. If you want fast heating but don\u2019t want to spend a lot of money on bills, get a gas heater but use it only occasionally.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-308195c uae-toc-hide-heading elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"308195c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Pool Size<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c04a66 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0c04a66\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>The bigger your pool is, the bigger the heater you should get.\u00a0<\/b><\/p><p>For an above ground pool (5,000-20,000 gallons), a gas heater or heat pump with 50-100K BTU will do.
