I have a ~15K max in ground pool..... I have a 1" natural gas line already in place. What is the best heater suggestion? I want to add a heater, want one that does not struggle to heat the pool. (over sized) Never researched, looking for advice.
Are you looking to heat it occasionally for an event? Or heat it to your favorite number and keep it there all the time?
Raypak 406A. It is a 399K BTU unit and a great unit.
Please do some searching on here and you will find that Raypak gets the popular vote.
Salt pools makes no difference on the heater. Don't believe anyone that tries to sell you a unit with a cooper nickle heat exchanger just because you have a salt pool.
There used to be a heater on this pool as the gas line is there as is the cement pad. It looks to be 1" coming up out of the ground reduced to 3/4" right at the connection that would go to the heater once in place. I would like to think that since there is a gas line there it is equipped for feed to a heater. How can I check the flow capacity?

Do you know how long the line is from the meter?
- without a pool cover, you'll be wasting a lot of money heating the pool.
Now your gas rates and weather are different than mine so you have to figure out the exact details as they apply to your pool, but I can unequivocally say that, without a cover, you will spend a lot of money heating your pool.
