The Natural Gas heaters boast the ability to produce heat quickly which makes it a popular choice amongst pool owners. Natural Gas heater units are designed for both above ground pools and inground pools. Gas pool heaters also come in Electronic or Millivolt (Standing Pilot)versions. Electronic versions are like a modern gas boiler and feature electronic spark ignition and micro processor control, thus giving you complete control of your pool temperature at the push of a button. Millivolt models are an older technology which uses a permanent pilot light and therefore is slightly less efficient, however does not require electrical wiring.
