FAQ

What size gas pool heater do I need: 200, 250, or 400 BTU?

For most standard residential pools in Ontario, a 250,000 BTU heater is the perfect sweet spot for balancing heating speed and efficiency. However, if you have a larger pool or want rapid, on-demand heating, upgrading to a 300,000 BTU unit is an excellent choice.

  • The Gas Line Catch: You cannot simply swap a small heater for a massive one. Upgrading to a larger heater (like 300k or 400k BTU) often requires a larger underground gas line to supply enough fuel. If your line is too small, the heater will starve for gas and fail to operate safely.
  • Safety First: Because gas lines and pressure calculations are complex, our in-house certified gas technicians will evaluate your existing setup to ensure your new heater runs safely and efficiently.
