About Spa/Pool Heating
We offer two complimentary spa heating days (60+ degree pool temp) 4 hours max.
Heating the entire pool during freezing temperatures can take a few days and requires special attention during heating. Therefore, if it is your desire to swim during winter months, approval and separate fees are required.
1. The spa/pool heats up 2 - 10 degrees an hour up to 104 degrees depending on size and temperature.
2. Pool and spa heating schedule should be arranged with owner before booking.
3. Heating the spa typically takes 1 - 2 hours.
4. We do not allow guests to operate the pool equipment. The pool features are operated remotely by the owner. If the pool heater is not used exactly as suggested by manufacturer, any issues would not be covered by warranty.
5. There is no spa/ pool heating automation schedule. Instead, we use an app to operate the pool features remotely. Please text me between 8am and 6pm to schedule spa/pool heater.
6. We only turn on the heater during warmest daylight hours (11am to 6pm)
7. The filter pump and waterfalls automatically turn on (freeze protection mode) when the pool temperature drops below 40.
8. We will not operate the spa/pool heater in temperatures under 60, lighting or raining. If you are an avid swimmer who prefers early morning or late night swimming, please see house manual for recommended facilities.

More about pool heater use during winter months.
“In cold weather, the pool's filter pump and heater must run during the warmest part of the day to maximize the heating efficiency. Swimming in midday hours, when the sun is at its peak, helps the pool to retain heat. The pool heating system typically requires the pump to be running in order to circulate the hot water. When the pump is turned off, the water may not circulate effectively, which can lead to uneven heating. In cold weather, it's best to run the pump during the warmest part of the day to maximize the heating efficiency. This could be during the midday hours when the sun is at its peak, helping the pool to retain heat. It's also important to consider the specific recommendations provided by the manufacturer of the pool heating system, as they may have specific guidelines for optimal operation in cold weather.”
*Please be respectful of outdoor noise. Quiet time during week nights is from 9 pm to 9 am and weekends is from 10:30 pm to 9 am. If police is called to the property during these times, will result in automatic termination of your stay. If a neighbor contacts me a nuisance complaint, I will immediatley terminate the reservation. No exceptions.
