Hayward Pool Heater Selection Guide
(Selecting the Correct Size Heater)
 
Determine your pool's surface area in square feet.
   
Area = (A+B) x L x .45   Area = R x R x 3.14   Area = L x W
 
Locate in the desired table below, the surface area to or just greater than the pool's surface area, read to the left and select the appropiate heater.
For indoor pool installations divide the pool's surface area by 3.
Tables are based on a 30 degee rise, 3½ MPH average wind velocity and elevation of up to 2,000 feet above sea level.

Saving Money by Saving Energy
Selecting a high efficiency heater for you new installation, or replacing an older inefficient model can have a significant impact on your fuel bill.
Here are some additional energy saving tips:
1) Check your pool chemistry regularly to maintain top operating condition.
2) Set your pool's water temperature between 78 to 82 degrees for most applications.
3) Use pool cover or thermal blanket on your pool when it is not in use. Evaporation accounts for 70% of heat loss from your pool.
4) Add wind breaks to your pool. A 7 MPH wind at the surface of a pool can increase energy consunption 300% !
