Product Description

The Beluga Solar Pool Heating Device is a revolutionary way to heat your swimming pool using a garden hose. The Beluga device attaches to a standard 1 1/2" return fitting on above ground or in ground swimming pools and allows you to divert a small stream of water into a garden hose. If you have ever picked up a garden hose that has been lying in the sun you know how hot the water can get. The Beluga allows you to slow the water down going through the hose capturing all of the heat that the garden hose can produce. The Beluga Solar Heating Device is the least expensive heating option on the market today. Now you can get your pool up to temperature sooner, extend your pool season, recover from a cold rain or a cool evening without any additional costs; no expensive heater unit, no service bills, and no expensive energy bills. The Beluga Solar Pool Heating Device is designed to work with in-ground and permanent above ground pools with a standard 1 1/2” threaded return fitting. The Beluga can be used with temporary or soft sided pools with Beluga Universal Adapter (sold separately).

Customers like the heating and ease of installation of the pool adapter. For example, they mention it warms the water well, it's perfect for boosting the pool temperature and that it'll warm water quickly. That said, some complain about the fit and hold of the adaptor. They say it doesn't fit their pool, the threads on the adapter are smaller than the thread on the fittings, and that the adapters keep popping off. Customers also dislike the material. Opinions are mixed on quality and appearance.

Customers are dissatisfied with the hold. They mention that it keeps popping off, the openings are cracking, and the threads don't catch and hold. The adjuster slips off their clips, and it leaks too much to get good flow to the hose. The dark blue front can easily pop-off if the pressure is too great. The top came off and the deflector seems to move itself during the day or when the pump starts and stops.

"...tabs holding on the adjustable opening are cracking and failing to hold this piece on...." Read more

"...The plastic doesn't hold up and the dark blue part keeps popping off...." Read more

"Great idea, but not strong enough. The adjuster slipped off their clips and now it leaks too much to get good flow to the hose...." Read more

"...It is plastic and if not careful, the dark blue front can easily pop-off if the pressure is too great. But it's also easy to pop back on." Read more

"...It is plastic and if not careful, the dark blue front can easily pop-off if the pressure is too great. But it's also easy to pop back on." Read more

"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 was..." Read more

"This is slowly increasing the water temperature but as it is only made of plastic I think it is way over priced!..." Read more

Broken after 1 week

Broken after 1 week
This is the 2nd time purchasing this item. The 1st one lasted 2 seasons and then broke at the hose attachment point. This year we purchased it again and it was installed for 1 week and it broke in the same place. Very cheap material. Very easy to install and would work well as it did before but I wouldn't waste money on something so cheaply made.
