Very cool! We have a similar set up but we built it ourselves and it is amazing how well it works. Freaking amazing!! I will use it to fill my hot tub after I drain it, sure it takes much longer to fill but atleast when it’s filled I can sit in it! So easy to get firewood here and that’s all we use to heat the house all winter.

Hi. How big is your pool and whats flow rate per hour of stove ? Thanks

Damn! That’s nice. Far better and more efficient than the one I made. Good work.

I recommend fortifying heat containment by surrounding the burner with some form of insulation to maximize heat received from internal pipes. This could also reduce the amounts of fuel(wood) needed to drive the system? Great video, thanks for sharing 😊

This is awesome 🎉 Please do more diy with the Volvo Penta 👍

Where did you buy it?

Any update?

In Northern Ontario pool heaters (motors) need to be in continues operation. They are not just something you fire up and expect to enjoy a few hours later. The heat loss from overnight temp drops as well evaporation needs to be overcome. Add the fact that most pools and piping are not insulated. In the off season I burn about one face cord per week maintaining 84 to 88 deg Fahrenheit. That is a real nice looking stove but it has a couple of draw backs. You should have a separate pump supplying the heater. It is going to be running all the time, including over-night. If your pool pump fails you will damage your heater( you can't just turn the wood fire off it needs to be continuously cooled). It is more economical to run your main pump for filtering and cleaning only. I see that your stove direct-fires the copper heating surfaces. Not very easy to get in there and clean out the mess on the heating surfaces every year. Soot makes a pretty good insulator...lol. Also flame impinging on the copper is not good.

costs 4-8 grand but will last ya forever!

I too bought this exact model, I'm in Northern NJ. I usually open my pool and of April to get the chemicals and everything proper... then I'll fire this up and have my pool at 85* before Memorial day weekend!!

Where did you order that from

Im gonna build an indoor pool and want to do the same i hope it will work better indoors

This was great. A little more view of the finish. Not real big, looks like it does what you need.

My guess is that you will only swim for a few weeks longer than you did. The water will cool too quickly. The walls of your pool along with the top would have to be insulated for it to be effective. But nice try 👍

Bad ass expensive heater though

How do you regulate the heat. If it’s too hot

You still liking this heater? I’m in northeast pa and thinking about getting one.

Hi! David, it is really helpful demo. I hope you still could answer my question since I just viewed your video yesterday. My question is what is the name of the adapter to fit the drill pump end 3/4" and convert to the 1/4" hose to the engine oil heck stick hole? Thank you very much. Lee

Can you make a video how winterize your boat.

David! I'm from Ohio and I got another month to boat / fish. I got my boat for almost 2 years now. I didn't do an oil change last year. I notice my deepstick for oil its black. Is it better to do oil change NOW? I plan on adding oil anyway because its low. OR wait until the season is over?

Thank you for the video. I have the same engine as you. Did you by chance make a video on how to change the water pump impeller. It's our first year with this boat and we're still learning. We're also in WA (we're in Hoodsport).

I was yelling NOOOOOOO at my screen when I saw you spinning the oil filter...then BOOOM !! I ve got the same exact engine, thanks for the battery drill trick.... gonna go attempt mine oil change now. Thank you
