Wood stove pool heater is burning! Fire pit will be burning tonight. Pool temp was at 68 three hours ago
What is the temp now? I'd like to study that setup. I just want to heat a hot tub though. Thanks for putting up those pictures
74 after three hours of red oak fire. I get around 1 1/2 to 2 deg. per hour with good weather. They make a unit just for hot tubs. Look up Woodstovepool.con
Very cool man, I have been researching WSP for a while, was hoping to pull the trigger on one for this season but might have to wait till next year. May I ask how many gallons does your pool hold and what model WSP do you have? Great pics and awesome looking yard you have. Thanks for sharing.
We have the Silverdome (Lg) our pool is more like a very large hot tub. It measures 12x24 and is 4’ at the shallow end and 5 1/2’ at the deep end and has 9000 gal. We wanted something bigger than a hot tub but small enough to heat up easy. The stove will warm a 23000 gal. pool at 1 deg. per hour so we get from 1 1/2 to 2 deg. With the smaller volume.
Beautiful pool. I switched to a salt water system a couple years ago and will never go back. Love the wood fired heater. You can now bump the temp up to make it comfortable and get more use and a longer season. I had a homemade solar set up that worked pretty well.
I'm going to have to check this out. After a measly attempt at a solar setup on my garage I gave up and started cutting trees for more solar gain. Opened mine 2 weeks ago starting temp 66 yesterday it was up to 75. Substantial improvement after removing the big white oak.
That surely looks nice. We've thought about something like that but in the woods, we no doubt would have to have it enclosed. I also wonder about insurance coverage as they seem to frown on pools like they do trampolines.
NICE pool! Amy wants one but I need to open up some more yard before that can happen. Im just about ready for 2nd burn season myself. Picked up a new pellet stove for the cottage.
Not sure it was 4 years ago but I think it was $2400.00 delivered from Canada. It’s not that air tight so you loose some heat but who cares I have 23 acres of Red Oak to burn. It’s all stainless steel so no need to cover for the winter.
Lost a few deg. last night was at 72 this morning. Started the stove up and now at 84deg. happy wife happy life.
