UPDATE: I've had several communications/inquiries with customer service via email, and my initial reservations about not having a phone option have been alleviated. They have been very informative, asked pertinent questions regarding my particular installation, and requested details or photos when applicable. Heater is working great and quickly raises the temperature when I lower it during non-use periods. Have had this heater installed for about a week now, and so far it's doing an excellent job. We upgraded our pool size this year to an approximately 1800 gal model, and the heater increased the water temperature from about 58 degrees to 80+ degrees in just a couple of days. Keeping the pool covered anytime it's not in use definitely helps with heat retention. Too early to tell what kind of impact the heater will have on the electric bill, but as this is an actual heat pump, I'm hoping it will be minimal, if at all. On our prior pool, which was about half the size, we were using several wand heaters (my wife called them curling iron heaters) , and you could feel the cords getting warm from the amp draw so I know they got the electric meter spinning. The only concern I had was a small amount of water that became visible from one bottom corner of the heater. Vidapool service confirmed that this was normal condensation from the pump operation, which I suspected. Once the water appeared, I did a pretty thorough inspection for leaks and none were detected. I guess the only negative comment (and not a big one) I have is that communication with Vidapool service can only be conducted via email, there does not appear to be a way to talk to someone live. Thus the 4 stars as versus 5. However, the two times I have emailed them (once for warranty registration and then for the water concern) they responded promptly. Also, with regard to the warranty, the unit had a registration card in the box that offered a free upgrade from 2 years to 3 years on the warranty, with one free replacement available if necessary. Almost forgot, the app that's available for remote connectivity is a major plus. I can easily track the pool temp from the inlet reading on the app, and then bump up the temp in the morning while I'm at work if I know the granddaughter is going to be using the pool in the afternoon. Nice perk!

Literally the best thing I have bought! Temps this morning were in the 60s and the pool was at 84°!

Excited to try this version out. The older one we had last year had an issue and the company warranty covered this newer version. Hoping for a wonderful spring through later fall pool season in Ohio.

At 1st, I was disappointed I installed it when temps in the 50s the flow rate on my pump is higher than the unit recommended. Recommend flow rate is very low and with a skimmer only return that small of a pump would not cut it . However when ambient temperatures raised in Mi. I fount it working better . It’s muck better than a solar heater and or solar cover.

Absolutely awful experience (Unit experience, I did received customer service support, just the equipment did not performed). I followed every troubleshooting step the seller gave me and still got nothing but wasted time. They even sent a replacement, claiming it was supposed to be more powerful, but **neither unit worked**. I bought this for a 3,000-gallon pool, and it could not do the job at all. I ended up extremely frustrated and out of patience because this product simply did not perform as advertised. The fact that both units failed makes this feel like a complete waste of money. I ended up buying this other unit from different brand that is heating the pool as expected https://a.co/d/0jjus7Mt

I've been impressed with the performance of this 75,000 BTU pool heat pump. For pool owners looking for a more energy-efficient alternative to gas heating, this unit delivers excellent heating performance while also providing cooling capability for those hot summer months. Integrated nicely in Home Assistant using the Tuya app. The 12 COP efficiency rating is one of the biggest selling points. Compared to traditional electric resistance heaters, heat pumps move heat rather than generate it directly, resulting in significantly lower operating costs. After installation, it became apparent why heat pumps have become so popular for pool heating. The unit is rated for pools up to 21,000 gallons and has no trouble maintaining water temperature once the desired setpoint is reached. Like all heat pumps, it works best when maintaining temperature rather than trying to rapidly heat a cold pool, but once dialed in it does an excellent job. The built-in WiFi functionality is a welcome feature. Being able to monitor and adjust settings remotely from a smartphone makes pool management much more convenient. Scheduling temperature changes and checking system status remotely adds a level of convenience that older pool heaters simply don't offer. Build quality appears solid. The cabinet feels sturdy, the controls are easy to navigate, and the overall construction seems appropriate for outdoor installation. The unit runs surprisingly quietly compared to what many people expect from pool heating equipment. I also appreciate the heating and cooling modes. While heating is the primary reason most people buy a heat pump, the ability to cool water during periods of excessive summer heat can be a valuable feature depending on your climate. Pros: • Energy-efficient heat pump technology • Strong 75,000 BTU heating capacity • Heating and cooling functionality • Convenient WiFi controls • Quiet operation • Lower operating costs than many alternatives • Suitable for both above-ground and in-ground pools • Maintains temperature effectively Cons: • Requires 220V electrical service • Like all heat pumps, heating speed depends on ambient air temperature • Professional installation may be recommended for some users Overall, this is an excellent pool heat pump that combines efficient operation, smart controls, and year-round versatility. For pool owners wanting to extend their swimming season while keeping operating costs reasonable, it offers a great balance of performance, features, and value.

This has a thermometer to measure the temperature of the water that it receives from the pool and another one that measures the temperature of the unit itself. This took a couple of days for my pool to measure 85* from it starting point of 66*. There is no pump in this unit, so it relies on your pool pump to circulate your water from the pool through the unit and then back out into the pool. I didn't see any reduction in the flow strength. Another thing to keep in mind, is that this wont heat all of the water in the entire pool, unless you have a very strong filter that will circulate ALL of the pool water efficiently enough to move the levels of water. For example. When it measured 85* in my pool, both with the unit and my pool thermomotor, it was significantly cooler in the lower levels of the pool. Once we got in and had moved around for a few minutes, the temperature dropped down to 77*. So you will want to occasionally take off the pool cover and try to get the water layers to mix. A few things to keep in mind for installation: This is almost just a plug and play set up. You have to place it at least 6 feet away from the pool and on a flat surface. I choose to put it on pavers, not only for stability, but also to raise it off the ground just a couple inches. You will need 2 hoses that are a minimum of 6 ft long each. The electrical cord is a decent length. There are rubber feet that really help keep it stable and reduce vibration while its running. This is very quiet, and is probably quieter than my pool pump. This has adapters that will allow hoses of multiple sizes to fit. I honestly am not sure that I would buy this again, because I feel like a good solar pool cover will work just as well, unless you are wanting to open your pool significantly earlier.
