I started using my Econoburn 200 to heat my pool last week. After observing for a while and adjusting the pool bypass it is working very well.
It went from 58 degrees to 82 in two days of 12 hour burns with a uncovered pool.
First thing is My temp gauges( push fit into well ) suck and aren't real accurate.
Boiler set point 190
Return line pre danfoss 140
Bypass valve to danfoss opened to increase return to boiler to 160 degrees
I am getting about a 30-35 degree delta t after adjusting pool water bypass. (Temp gauges at exchanger)
Using the set point of 190 when the fan is off it will cool down to 180 and high speed will kick on and crank away brining it back up to 185. This way the boiler fan basically runs steady and maintains a temp of 178- 185.
I have learned with my pool if I want to bring up temp a full load will raise pool 3-4 degrees if covered.
Best thing is Virtually no smoke! It will smoke just a little when the fan shuts off at 185 but when pulling that many btus the fan comes back on within in 5-10 minutes.
