Heating Elements
The heating elements in all Elecro heaters are of superior construction, offering excellent chemical attack and erosion resistance. Their life expectancy should be many years, provided the Elecro installation instructions are adhered to and water chemistry is maintained within the guide limits.

Bring a pool up to temperature
Assuming no heat losses, and a heater sized in the ratio 1.5-kW per 1000-gallons of water: it will take 2 days of continuous running to raise the temperature of a pool from tap temperature to swimming temperature. Heat loss will slow the process particularly during periods of cold weather, i.e. the higher the temperature is to be maintained above average ambient air temperature the slower the heating process will become. The main influencing factor being the level of heat retaining insulation incorporated in the pool shell.

Pluging in a heater
Heater sizes 2-kW and 3-kW can be plugged in via a standard 3-pin domestic plug.
Heater sizes 4.5-kW and above require wiring to the property's main consumer unit - the same way a shower or cooker is normally wired. To check the power consumption of your heater please see the tank label of the heater (located on the heaters flow tube) or click on the following relevant link for the power requirements page page of your heater or the heater you are considering: Stainless Steel Swimming Pool Heaters, Titanium Swimming Pool Heaters.

Swimming Pool Heater Size
The kW output of a heater should be matched to the volume and surface area of the pool, which will decide what heat you need. Show on the table below.
