How Do You Hook Up A Pool Heater?
A swimming pool heater is a great addition to your pool’s plumbing system. Because the water is heated, you will be able to enjoy more swim time in your pool. The water heater is installed outside the pool between the pool filter and pool. The pool pump cycles the water through the pool filter, into the water heater, the heater warms the water and then cycles it back into the pool. The addition of a pool heater to your pool system takes only a few steps. Test the water with a pH test kit and add the necessary chemicals to balance the water. This ensures that your pool heater runs efficiently. Turn the pool pump off. Clean the pool filter and skimmer to avoid the new pool heater becoming clogged. Ensure that all debris has been removed, such as sticks and leaves. Decide where to place the pool heater. Place the heater on level ground about three feet from the pool filter. Use a leveling tool to make sure the area is level. If it is not level, use cylinder blocks to create a level area.
