Don't buy
Piece of Garbage, have tried running it for weeks and tried everything and it still doesn't heat my 3000 gallon pool. All it does is maintain temperature by 3 degrees more and has raised electricity cost significantly!!!!!! Down over 600 dollars plus electric bill, what a trash company that's hard to reach

Good item, very good after-sales service from seller
I received the heater with the control panel damaged due to a blow, I contacted customer service and the seller contacted me and sent me a replacement very quickly.

Conflicting Instructions and Info So Must Know Math Before Heating
My RamblingsLike everyone, I am not a polar bear and I want my pool to be warmer earlier and later in the season so our family can enjoy it more and longer. So Let’s take a look at this fancy heat pump.To the Point or TL;DRCouple of different install options, Conflicting instructions, Fairly straight forward as far as actually connecting it, Works and Will heat water (results may vary), Not very loud, Some restrictions on locations. Be sure to use piping rated for pressure (schedule 40 will do), Hard pipe it or flex pipe it. Would I install it myself again… maybe.Product Features/Details (How it's Made, What's In It)Heat Pump with Titanium tube heat exchanger. Model: KSPF-005L3R1A1; BTU: 16,000; COP range: 3.0-4.3; Power: 110-120v/60Hz, 7.1 Amps, 781-852 watts; Refrigerant: R410A/15.90 ozs; Water Flow GPM: 7.2; Noise: 50 dB(A); Weight: 66 lbs; 1-1/4 O.D. pvc connectors.The Good StuffSeveral install options: hard pipe or flex (be sure it is pressure rated). Can be looped into a current pump or stand alone with a separate pump. Instructions for both. Has a long electrical cord with a GFCI breaker built in. Also nice is it just plugs into a 110 outlet and draw less than 8 amps. This heats water (haven’t tried the cooling mode nor do I want to). Depending on the size of your pool and water temp, and when the moon is in Aquarius, and blah blah will determine just how long that takes. Run some numbers using online calculators for BTU’sThe Info StuffCOP is Coefficient Of Performance for Heat Pumps. And you say… So? Short version: the higher the COP the cheaper it is to boil water or heat your pool. Example: 1,000 w Heat pump with 4.3 COP will give us 4,300 w worth of heat.BTU’s: I’m not going to touch BTU calcs. Look it up. Lots of calculators.Freezing: It’s a heat pump. They do that sometimes, especially when it is cold outside. Let it thaw. It’ll be alright. OR it has lost it’s Freon, in which case it won’t be alright. Just saying.The Bad StuffLots of confusing stuff. First the tag on side of heat pump says water flow is 7.2 GPM (432 GPH) but the instructions say need pump greater than 12 GPM (720 GPH) and on the landing page it says “recommended with a flow rate range of 1,500 GPH-2,000 GPH” So… 7.2 max or >12 ???Who May Use/Like ItThose wanting a warmer (or cooler) pool water.Me Final ThoughtsHave a pro do the calcs, install, and warranty it. I’m a huge do it myself person, but this drove me a little nuts. I just want warmer water.That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Hope it helps!All the best, Just BenjaminReviewed: Brand: Varpoolfaye Cost: $559.99 at time of review.Pool Heaters for Above Ground Pool 16000 BTU Swimming Pool Heater Pump 5000 Gallon Heating or Cooling Mode WiFi Control Timer 120V 60Hz

Glad we did it

Product is made for smaller pools
This did not heat up my pool at all even when it was warm outside I had it running for a week and it went up 6 degrees which wasn’t warm enough for a night swim. I went with Turbo and works great for a 14ft above ground pool.

VarPoolFaye Pool Heater for Above Ground Pool 16000 BTU
Works as promised! I've tried other heaters and they died or reduced function way too soon. I kept putting off this review waiting for something to happen, but after 3 weeks of every-other-day use it is still performing well and as expected.I have this on a 5x8 Intex pool (about 500gallons) and it raises the water temp 7 degrees in about 2 hours. That's enough to take the edge off the Spring coolness and continues to heat so that I can get almost hot tub like temps.This does sweat a lot/ produce a lot of condensation in south Florida with the humidity, currently about a quart an hour drips off/ out of the heat exchanger. At first I thought it was leaking, but it only produces water when warming, no issues with water when the pump is flowing through without the unit on. I got a 24" hot water tank basin and drain line to overcome this as the pool is inside an enclosed porch, not outside where it could run off into the lawn.The parts supplied are decent quality. The instructions are overly complicated with poorly translated technical terms, but the installation is simple, line in, line out. You do have to maintain space around the unit for air to flow and larger space (72") the direction the fan faces. There is no pool hose included, you need that separately to install.It's not perfect, but the small issues don't drop this a star to me.

Heat
I have had this heater for about 2 weeks not it’s been fully hooked up for a week. The heater ran non stop for about 3 days then I started turning it off during the night. The pool has never gotten over 77 degrees. I have it set to 90 with a solar cover and another cover I believe it has wanted it up however it has not and I don’t foresee it getting hotter until the temperature outside is hotter. It’s only been in the lower 70’s here. You do need additional hosing. I can’t get the WiFi to connect to mine. Over all it works ok just wish it heated it up more.
