Everything makes sense for me to go with an electric heat pump for a swimming pool heater. We've got a relatively small 15,000 gallon in ground and just want another month or two on both sides of the season.
I've done a bit of research and the only reservation I have is how well they work in a relatively low humidity (Sacramento area) environment.
Anyone have any knowledge/experience with electric heat pumps for heating pools in California or low humidity environments? Much appreciated..

Is the pool enclosed? Are you looking to keep it warm when it's freezing outside?
Average temps for those months is 70’s/80’s. We only get about 4 good sunlight hours due to surrounding trees. Using a solar blanket cover too.
They had an old gas fired pool heater that was toast, said the heat pump did just as good for less money.
I'd make sure whoever you get it from services them. That's the problem around here, hardly anyone wants to work on them.
