Heat pump recommendation?

[synapsid]

Hi All,

We would like to extend our swimming season by adding a heat pump. Is there a recommended brand/model? Our pool is 8500 gallon above ground (installed semi-inground) and we have a bubble cover.

Thanks!

All heat pumps are basically the same and use similar parts. What matter is the service and support. Get whatever Heat Pump can be serviced by people locally. Don't assume the place where you buy it from can service it.

That said look at AquaCal or Builtright or Pentair UltraTemp or Gulfstream,...

Thanks Ajw. Are heat pumps rated in BTUs , and if so, what Rating would be ideal for an 8500 gallon pool?

Yes.

There is no substitute for BTUs. The more the better. Whatever your budget can handle.
