whats a outdoor pool cost to heat?

[steveo3002]

just wonder ..outdoor pool in the summer ,whats it cost to heat ?

[JM]

What size of pool?

What are you heating it with, Electric, Gas, Oil, Heat Pump, solar?

What temp of water do you want?

What are the ambient average temps?

Is it an inground or above ground pool?

Does it have a thermal cover?

How much use will the pool get? (hours uncovered per day etc)

[steveo3002]

say 4x6 mtr , in ground , covered but non thermal with an hour a day use

dont know the rest

[JM]

£1 a day.

My mates pool costs about £3k a year to heat.
Mind you he does have it ridiculously warm.

I've found your friend

31c? That's a bath! Ours is about the same size and costs a few hundred over the year, just warm it up to 27C when we use it. Got a new boiler which heats it up in a few hours anyway.

Indeed. Though if Emsman is still middle east based, I doubt he needs a pool heater...?
