Electric Heaters

An electric heater operates by way of electricity heating up a resistor located inside each unit. Once the resistor has heated up appropriately, water will be let into the space to be heated accordingly. The newly acquired hot water then is circulated into the pool, the resistor cools down and the process repeats itself once the temperature of the pool drops again.

An electric pool heater features heavy-duty wiring, circuit connections with high amperages, and possibly an additional pump. Supplementary parts include gaskets, plugs, unions and nuts. These components must be maintained for optimal safety and performance measures. Coates, K-Star and Raypak help pool owners achieve these favourable standards by supplying swimming parts for your electric pool heater.  

One benefit of an electric pool heater is it is operational at any temperature in any weather. Notably in Canada, pool parts for an electric heater are at a decisive advantage because they are more resilient and durable to endure the unpredictability from season to season.  

Maybe you want to go for a late night swim, or an early morning dip before sunrise. Maybe it’s raining outside or it’s considerably chilly on an autumn day. Maybe the sky is a cloudy grey or the winds are strikingly high. Mother Nature’s elements will not affect an electric pool heater’s effectiveness. Electricity is controlled indoors so your source of power is at your disposal.

A second benefit of electric pool heaters is they are more environmentally friendly than gas heaters. There are no harmful gases and there is no contribution to air pollution by using electricity. In addition, electric heaters have the capability to be faster and more effective than opposing heaters.

An electric pool heater will run efficiently once installed and maintained correctly. If basic upkeep is neglected or limited, replacement parts for your electric pool heater will be a recurring need.   

Overall, an electric pool heater is the better option depending on the size and shape of the water as well as the usage. For example, an owner of a smaller pool, a spa, or a hot tub would prefer an electric pool heater because in those cases, continuous use is not necessary. We advise customers to take advantage of the sale of electric pool heater parts to relish in the low cost, reliable, energy efficient heater.
