Pool Heater Replacement & Installation

Three Ways to Heat Your Pool in Sarasota, FL

When a repair no longer makes sense, the right replacement depends on your pool volume, existing electrical capacity, equipment-pad space, heating speed goals, and budget. Here is how the three primary options compare.

Traditional Rapid Heat

Gas Pool Heaters

Gas heaters are a traditional pool-heating option and are available for customers who want fast, powerful heating. They burn natural gas or propane to deliver instant, on-demand warmth regardless of how cold the outdoor air gets.

Standard Electric Efficiency

Electric Heat Pumps

Traditional electric heat pumps have been a common pool-heating solution for many years and are an option for customers who have adequate electrical capacity and equipment space. They extract ambient heat from Florida air to heat water efficiently.

AquaCal TropiCal Inverter Pool Heat Pump
Smart Inverter Compressor

Electric Inverter Heat Pumps

Inverter heat pumps are a newer, more energy-efficient type of electric pool heat pump. They are designed to adjust their operation smoothly rather than simply running at full output, which can reduce energy consumption and operating noise.

Full-inverter modulation: ramps down to maintain water temp
Dual heating and cooling modes for summer heat relief

Spotlight on Inverter Innovation

AquaCal TropiCal Inverter Heat Pump

Aloha began installing inverter heat pumps this year, and AquaCal TropiCal is currently the easiest brand to source locally, delivering variable-capacity heating, chilling, and ultra-quiet operation right from Florida's own Gulf Coast.

Lower Electrical Draw

Models are available for smaller pools that may require only a 20-amp breaker, compared with the approximately 50-amp electrical requirement of many traditional heat pumps. Ideal for homes with limited panel capacity.

Heats & Chills Water

Can both heat your pool in winter and chill the water during peak Florida summer months when backyard pool temperatures can otherwise feel like a warm bath.

Wi-Fi & Smartphone Control

Seamless mobile app integration lets you monitor current water temperatures, adjust heating setpoints, or switch modes directly from your phone anywhere.

Modulating Efficiency

AquaCal says the TropiCal can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 70% by adjusting compressor speed instead of constantly stopping and restarting.

Much Quieter Operation

Designed to operate much more quietly than traditional heat pumps. Once the setpoint is reached, the inverter compressor slows down to a gentle hum that won't disrupt your lanai conversations.

Made in St. Petersburg, FL

Made in St. Petersburg, Florida, and backed by a 3-year manufacturer warranty.

Important Space Consideration: Pad Footprint Evaluation

Inverter heat pumps have a different physical footprint than traditional models

Traditional electric heat pumps are often closer to a square or cube shape and may fit neatly within approximately a 3-foot-square equipment area. Many inverter models, by contrast, feature a longer rectangular footprint that may require approximately 4 feet of space in one direction plus proper clearance for airflow and servicing.

Available equipment-pad space should always be evaluated before selecting an inverter heat pump. An inverter model will not fit every pool equipment pad without replumbing or rearranging components.
Multiple Brands & Sourcing Options

Inverter Brands We Source & Support

We don't force homeowners into one brand. While AquaCal TropiCal is currently our easiest inverter heat pump to source and install locally, we evaluate each pool setup and can also source other leading inverter brands depending on your heating needs, electrical supply, and distributor availability:

AquaCal TropiCal

Made in St. Petersburg, FL. Easiest to source locally. Heats and cools. 3-year manufacturer warranty.

Raypak Crosswind

Available by special order.

Moov Inverter Heat Pumps
