Pentair MiniMax 100 Review

For an above ground pool (which is usually smaller than an in-ground pool) you don't need such a powerful heater and manufacturers make models specifically for this purpose:

The Pentair MiniMax 100  is a high performance 100k BTU gas heater designed specifically for above ground pools and spas. There are four versions:

• Natural gas with electronic ignition,
• Natural gas with millivolt ignition,
• Propane with electronic ignition,
• Propane with millivolt ignition,

although prices are very similar for all models.

If you just want to heat a smaller above ground pool or a spa the heating capacity of the Mini max is ideal, there is no point in paying more than you need. As a guide if you have a 500 gallon pool this heater can raise the temperature up to twenty degrees in an hour. So even if you only heat the pool intermittently, maybe just at weekends, it will soon be ready for use. Click Here to read more.
