How Much Does it Cost to Have a Pool Heater in Orlando?

The benefits of a having a pool heater are pretty obvious: an extended pool season for your family and comfortable pool water temperatures at all times. But a common concern for Orlando homeowners is cost – how much does a pool heater cost to run and maintain? Well, in short, the answer is that it varies depending on many factors, such as the size and type of pool, your preferred water temperature, and the type of heater.

The Three Main Types of Pool Heaters

Gas

Using propane or natural gas, a gas pool heater burns fuel in a combustion chamber, and then as the pool’s pump circulates the water, it passes through coils where it’s heated before returning to the pool. Typically, gas pool heaters can cost around $200 to $400 per month to run.

Electric

Electric resistance heaters use electricity to generate heat. The downside is that they require a great amount of electricity to run and are not efficient for large pools. This type of pool heater could cost up to $600 per month. The more common electric option is a heat pump, which uses heat from the outside air. While a heat pump is more energy efficient than an electric resistance heater, it is not effective during Florida’s bouts of cold temperatures. A heat pump could cost around $100 to $200 per month to run.

Solar

The good news for Orlando homeowners is that there is a great alternative to high monthly costs for pool heating: a solar pool heater. Hands down, solar heaters are the most cost-effective option in the Sunshine State. That’s because a solar heater heats the pool water using nothing but the sun’s radiant heat and your existing pool pump. And solar energy has a monthly cost of ZERO.

Tony, the technician/plumber from Florida Energy Water & Air, was most pleasant, knowledgeable, professional. He arrived on completed the replacement of very old water heater including nearly 100% disappearance of the "knocking noise" in less than an hour, and cleaned up the work area very nicely at the end. I highly recommend his and FEWA to anyone needing these kind of services. Thanks Tony!

My experience with the team at Florida Energy Water & Air has been very positive throughout the whole process. I purchased the water treatment and air purification systems for my new home. Jack, the sales representative, did a very impressive job making the 2-hour demo fun, engaging, and interesting. I had no idea how much time had passed until it was over because he did such a great job keeping my attention. The installation was performed by Robenson a few hours later that same day! He was very professional and did a great job with the installation. I wasn’t a big fan of drilling a hole through my garage to run the water pipe, but he made the hole as small as possible and it looks like the house was built that way. He and his partner did a great job cleaning up after themselves. Finally, John was very friendly, professional, informative, and helpful during the post-installation quality inspection. Overall, it has been a very positive experience.
