So I just bought a small pool (10ft x6ft x 2.5 ft) but it is extremely cold when I fill it up...?

Question

Any ideas on how to heat it? Be creative if you like...

Thanks

Answer 1

The sun will warm it up if it is not in the shade. Or (creatively), fill pots with water, bring them to a boil on your stove, and dump the water in. Or (creatively), hook a hose up to your kitchen sink, turn on the hot water, and fill your pool.

Answer 2

Fill it up first thing in the morning, sit it out in the sun, and allow about five or six hours for the sunlight to warm the water up. Another idea would be to fill up a bucket with already warm water from a faucet in the house, and take it out over and over until you have the pool filled out. The first option is a little easier, in my opinion.

Answer 3

It really is the location of the pool that matters. if it is under a shade, then the chances are that it will be cold. But you can buy some water heaters or pool heaters. You can also just ask a neighbor or a public pool how they can maintain the warm water during the winter or cold days!

Answer 4

if its that small,the sun should heat it up..if not,pump the water through a small solar heater(halfway down the page): http://www.swimming-pool-information.com...
