Five Star Reviews: | 22% Item will work for what we need the threads are ... May 28, 2017 Item will work for what we need the threads are smaller than the fitting it attached to. We had to put a lot of thread tape and have to hold it while we turn the pump on so it doesn't shoot off (that happened too). Works Great July 1, 2015 This gadget is perfect for boosting the pool temp in the spring; we added two black rubber garden hoses and ran them around the pool deck which gets super hot from the sun. The water that comes out is unbelievably warm and without burning fossil fuel. It is made of plastic so don't think it will last long but the design is brilliant; just screw it into one of the jet outlets. When the temp rises in early summer it can be stored and the hose used in the yard. I would highly recommend this. | 51% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 21% I Like it July 18, 2016 Works great and is as described , will need Hayward SP1023 1-1/2 fitting to convert to a Intex 18x52" poolI Love it and heated my pool up a 2-3 degrees which is the top end of the 140$ solar coil heaters Almost there. June 25, 2016 Works as advertised, but with 2 flaws. 1- The deflector seems to move itself during the day or when the pump starts and stops. Fixed with a couple screws thru it to the body of it. 2- It need a directional flow to the pool. The water comes out straight not pushing around the pool to the skimmer. Works great June 22, 2016 Works great! No problems as long as you follow instructions. Warmed pool up by 8 degree's so far. | 19% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 12% I am sure it would work great if it fit my pool July 21, 2016 I am sure it would work great if it fit my pool. Have to see if I can get an adapter to make it fit. Sounds good in theory November 9, 2015 Sounds good in theory, but unless you have a mile of black hose, it makes little to no difference in pool temp it needs attachment to secure to the filter the intake ... August 30, 2015 it needs attachment to secure to the filter the intake should be a clamp it took me two days to configure an attachment ..i needed to design a reducer to go through the wall and connect to the Beluga and so far so good Helps a little. July 29, 2015 We use 100 ft. of black hose with ours. Water coming out of the hose gets pretty hot. I can't say it makes a huge difference in warming the pool, but it definitely helps and at that cost, there isn't much to lose by trying it. Three Stars February 1, 2015 I liked the idea of it but the darker blue front part cracked the first year :( | 7% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 14% Keeps popping off! June 26, 2017 Nice looking but it keeps popping off! Tried to screw it back in and the dang thing squirted me in the face!!I don't think they got the thread diameter right.Kind of expensive for what you get i may return it.I think that a cheap little water pump and 2 hoses might do better. Great idea. The plastic is very cheap thus threads ... June 19, 2017 Great idea. The plastic is very cheap thus threads do not catch and hold to pool fitting, that is, when trying to attach the garden hose the Beluga device slips out of the pool fitting. Usually takes about five tries to get it to stay in place. If it was manufactured using a rigid type plastic it would probably be a great product. There Is A Reason There Are a Ton of Returns For Sale in the Amazon Warehouse December 6, 2016 Good idea, however having to remove it every time one uses the pool causes this otherwise innovation product to be relatively worthless. It needs to be longer with more threads to enable a better fit to return to prevent it from falling off ... December 13, 2015 eh it's okay....only used it a few times over the summer because it does not stay connected to the return. It works well to heat up water when it's working but the neck or part that screws into the return was too short. It needs to be longer with more threads to enable a better fit to return to prevent it from falling off from pressure of water coming out of return. IF this problem was fixed, it would work a lot better. ... I had hoped for even though I bought the recommended black hose June 30, 2015 Not the temp increase I had hoped for even though I bought the recommended black hose too | 9% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 31% ... but you need a lots of sun and a good hose to make this work and you can bypass ... September 1, 2017 Not sure what I was expecting - but you need a lots of sun and a good hose to make this work and you can bypass using this by just strapping your hose to side of pool. I thought this would help in heating but it does nothing but hold your hose in place. Not a good buy November 14, 2015 Booo the fittings did NOT fit, and after hooking it up, so much water escaped that it did absolutely nothing that would heat the pool. A waste of time and money. Buy a solar cover instead Returned it Solar heating device June 7, 2015 I didn't find this product useful. It's made of plastic and even though I closed the front of the product, the water still got through and there wasn't enough pressure to get the water through the hose. I tried to return it but the thirty days was past due by the time I got the pool up and running. Made cheaply, a big waste of money. Buluga Solar Pool Heater June 16, 2014 This is slowly increasing the water temperature but as it is only made of plastic I think it is way over priced! Outer plastic ring broke after about a week. Have tried to get response from company but after 3 weeks still no response. Do not buy from them! | 14% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
