This equation makes no allowance for heat loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cost of maintaining the water temperature will be dependant on the level of insulation given by the pool structure, a moderately well insulated pool being used only during summer months may only require 3 hours of top up heat on average per day. At a cost of 27 pence per 1000-gallons (when the heater is sized in the ratio 1.5-kW per 1000-gallons). The religious use of a solar floating cover could dispense with the need for any top up heat being required during warm sunny days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ - My pool's flexible pipe is slightly larger than the fittings supplied\u003cbr\u003eA - The connections supplied with your Elecro heater are a stepped 1¼\" BSP \u0026amp; 1½\" BSP (British Standard Pipe).
