Pool Cooler - Decreases The Pool Water Temperature 8-10 Degrees - Do it Yourself Install - Easy to Install Easy to Dismantle - No Energy Required to Operate

Update: We are now into our 4th pool season with these.We have a 27,000 gallon pool in Dallas. In July and August, the water temperature will rise to about 92 degrees if we don't use the cooling sprayers. With the sprayers, the pool stays around 82 degrees. We run 9 hours per night, from midnight to 9am. We have 5 return jets. We installed 2 of these coolers, and blocked the other 3 return jets. We have a variable flow pump, Pentair Intelliflo VSF, with the flow rate set high enough to make sure that water is coming out the top holes of the spray tower, and the spray from these top holes lands about 3 to 4 feet out into the pool. When we bought these spray towers, each one came with one screw plug to block a jet. A quick trip to the hardware store was needed to buy enough plugs to block the jets not connected to the 2 sprayers.A bit more info about our setup. We have an adjustable flow rate pump (Pentair VSF), this is more advanced than adjustable speed (RPM). Being able to set the flow rate makes it easy to dial in how hard to push water out of the sprayers as well as making sure the pool water is turned over enough times per day for cleaning/chlorination purposes. This pumps ability to keep a consistent flow rate is useful to maintain a consistent sprayer output even as the filter slowly builds up back pressure between cleanings. Our pool equipment is next to our bedroom window. To keep the pump noise down, we prefer to run the pump as slow as we can get away with. Slower pump = less noise. Another benefit of running slower is that pumps are much more energy efficient at lower speeds (slower speed = more gallons filtered per kwhr of electricity used). However, the cooling towers are more effective at higher flow rates where they spray farther through the air, causing more evaporative cooling. It is a tradeoff.

No joke, this pool cooler (I bought 2, first 1 and then a 2nd after the first worked so well) lowered our pool temperature a full 10 degrees. Middle of AZ summer daily high temps range from 105-118 degrees resulting in a consistent pool temp of 94-95+ degrees. After installing this and running at night during the cooler temperatures for about 3 nights, my pool temperature in the morning would be about 83 degrees and in the afternoon around 85 degrees --- a noticeable (wonderful!) difference. Pool store guys told me this would only lower my pool temp 2-3 degrees, and let me tell you, they were wrong. This turned our whole pool experience into a totally new and improved experience. And, the sound that comes from this cooler adds a new energy and relaxing element to your pool (we run it when we're swimming just for the sound and look) We were considering buying a mechanical pool chiller for about 4 years but could not bring ourselves to spring for this $1200-3000 luxury item over more imporant things like a new home air conditioner. But, after doing some looking online and finding this pool cooler, at only $50 per unit(!), this pool cooler did the exact same thing that's advertised for the high-priced pool chiller! Kid you not, when we have guests over to swim now in the middle of the day during 110+ degree temps, nobody wants to get out of the pool because it feels so refreshing. And people continue to rave throughout their swimming day how good it feels. This is the best kept secret in pool accessories. And, to top it all off, it literally took my 5 minutes to install. I know I probably sound like an infomercial leaving this review, but I never leave reviews (don't have the time), and our family and friends have been hearing me go on and on about this pool cooler for weeks now. And they don't disagree. Final word of advice, don't even hesitate, just buy the dang thing. You will....not.....regret it.

I live in North TX and just bought a house with a pall this past spring. During the summer it is regularly over 100 degrees and my pool has been at 92 degrees since the beginning of July (abt 3 weeks). I started looking into large pool chillers and found these during my search. I figure for the money it was worth a try. I bought 2. It took about 2 days to see any results but me poop started dropping abt 1 degree per day for the first 4 days. I am at day 5 and the pool is still dropping and is abt 87-88. 5 degrees difference from 92 to 87 is the difference between hot bath water and having some refreshment. The pool is still warmer than I would like but you can feel that it is cool. Overall I’d rate these 5 stars for how easy the install is, how well they work and the overall cost. Hoping my pool continues to cool off a few more degrees. Mid to low 80’s is the goal!
