Heating a spa
1 Attachment(s)
Curious...if you have a spa and a pool, do you use a separate heater just for the spa in order to get it to higher temperatures? What size heater do you find adequate just for a spa?
Thank you for your time and effort...appreciate it. |
If your pool and spa water are co-mingled in the filter, pumps, etc, I am not sure how you would separately heat the spa water. If you have separate loops for each, then I would expect separate heaters for each. I am guessing you are asking for a future project, so I would make sure this is discussed in the planning stage. We have a separate spa above ground, with the built-in heater. It easily heats the 500 gallons of water and keeps it nice and warm the very good insulation.

Thank you....this is my sons pool...he has a combined heater and solar heater which handles the pool and spa just fine....about 80 degrees. But he wants an additional heater just to boost heat for the spa...pool companies have given him a large quote for a big heater. He wants a heater less than 100k BTU and knows it will take about 2 hours to get the temp up to 100+...he is fine with that since he works from home.
Two pool companies are trying to oversell the larger heater size and won't get the smaller one. |
