which heat pump would be best? what should I look for?

[ImpalaRob]

That first season I probably ran the pump and heater for 12 hours/day from mid-September and into mid-October to keep the temps up so we could continue to use the pool. Randy

I hear ya! I tried all sorts of things....... till I finally gave up and told my wife and kids "Listen, if you think the Long Island Sound is warmer, lets go swim there!$!$

When this thing goes Kaput........ I'll swap over to Gas.

I hear you loud and clear. Although we have natural gas in the house, with all the hardscaping that's been done outside since the pool was built it would be impractical for me to run a gas line out to the heater location. I'm stuck with the heat pump for now and into the foreseeable future... I will simply continue to use it judiciously.
