Hi there! New member and new pool owner. We bought our first short term rental property in San Antonio, and it has a pool that we are excited about. However there’s no heater. And we’ve lost about 6-7k of bookings between now and The end of march because of this! So feeling pretty bummed.
- My question is, what would be overall better for our situation to heat the pool during the winter, spring and fall? Gas heater seems way more expensive to run and honestly probably cost the same since we have to have a gas line installed.
- My concern about the heat pump though is will it heat up fast enough to use as a rental? Like is it something I can just have running every few days to keep it semi warm in case the next guests want it?
- Also which is more user friendly so my guests don’t mess up my pool?
- And is there a semi affordable way to automate and gain control over the heat pump since we live 2 hours away?
SO MANY QUESTIONS as a first time pool owner, wow. Grateful I found this forum.
