Pros
- Mitsubishi inverter slows down once the pool is warm, so it runs quietly and cheaply most of the time
- Keeps heating in air down to 5 °F, so the swim season can run into late autumn
- Wi-Fi app control and cooling are included
Cons
- Output drops to about half (27,000 BTU) in 50 °F air
- Short 2-year unit warranty (3 if registered)
- No AHRI certification to confirm the ratings
