Does anyone out there have any experience with Ecosmart Tankless pool heaters. I am just looking to extend my season a month on either end, so I really can't see a gas or regular electric heater for such a short time each year. Live in Tucson Arizona. Any suggestions?

If you're looking to use electricity to heat the pool I would look towards heat pumps instead.
Resistive heating like the EcoSmarts are going to be insanely expensive to run.
Looking at this 27kW unit:
EcoSmart - Smart Pool 27
That would require 112.5A of power! (27kW / 240V)
The wire required to run that kind of power alone would be a huge cost. Depending on the length of the run you would be looking at 1 AWG, if not larger
I would look at other options to heat the pool with electric.
But I'm no expert

What kind of heat pump is it? I just recently read about full inverter heat pumps, but only found references to dealers outside of the US, such as China, Australia, and the UK. Brands I found were Phnix and Fairland (from China).
