Pool stores often sell the heater and refer out the gas work. Platinum Gas handles that part: checking your meter or propane supply, running the line and starting the heater. Quotes are free.

Enough gas for a big appliance

A pool heater is often the biggest gas appliance on the property, and a meter or line that's too small will leave it underfiring. We check its demand against your meter or propane supply, the length of the run and your other appliances before you buy, so install day has no surprises. On propane, that includes whether your tank can keep up.

One plan with your pool team

Your quote spells out the gas work and lists what your pool contractor and electrician need to finish before startup, from water connections to the power supply. At startup, we fire the heater, check the gas pressure and confirm it's running properly. The gas connection carries a workmanship warranty from a technician with more than 10 years in the trade.

The swim season here is short. A new pool build is the easiest time to add a heater, before the patio locks in the gas route, and booking over the winter gives you the best shot at warm water on opening day. Platinum Gas is based in Bowmanville and installs natural gas and propane pool heaters across Courtice, Newcastle, Oshawa, Whitby, Port Hope and Cobourg, with evening and weekend appointments. Send your pool size, a wide photo of the equipment pad and the heater model.

New pool heaters and replacement installations

New pool-heater installation

Add gas heating to a new or existing pool.

A first pool heater needs a suitable gas supply and a place within the pool's circulation system. We review the proposed equipment and route while the pad and landscaping can still be coordinated.

Tell us how you expect to use the pool, including temperature and season. Your quote identifies the gas-line and heater work, plus preparation for water connections, controls and electrical requirements before startup.

Pool-heater replacement

Replace the heater with the connections checked.

A new pool heater may require different gas capacity, plumbing positions, controls or clearances even when it occupies the same pad. Send both the old and proposed model details if available.

We assess what can be reused and explain the changes needed for the replacement. Removal, disposal and work by the pool contractor or electrician are confirmed in the quote before installation.

How pool-heater installation works


  1. Share the pool and heater details

    Send the pool size, heating expectations, fuel and any model under consideration. Include a wide view of the equipment pad and the construction or opening schedule.


  2. Confirm the installation quote

    We assess gas capacity, the route and heater location, then identify the included work and water, electrical or control preparation required before connection.


  3. Install and complete startup checks

    Once the required preparation is ready, we complete the agreed gas work and operating checks, then explain the controls and where to find the model's maintenance and winterization requirements.

Pool heater installation questions

What determines heater size, when to request a quote and how gas, pool plumbing and electrical work fit together.

How do I choose the right size gas pool heater?

Pool size, desired temperature, swimming season, wind exposure, cover use and how quickly you want the water to warm all inform the choice. The selected heater must also suit the property's fuel supply and pool equipment. Send those details for a model and installation review.

Does Platinum Gas complete the pool plumbing and electrical work?

Your quote states what Platinum Gas completes and what the pool contractor or electrician must prepare. Water connections and flow, controls, electrical supply and bonding need to be ready for the selected heater. Confirm responsibilities before scheduling the gas connection and startup.

Can the old pool-heater gas line be reused?

It needs assessment against the replacement heater's demand, the line route and the other gas appliances sharing the supply. The new heater can also have different connection positions or installation requirements. Send the current and proposed model numbers so we can review the changes.

When should I request a pool-heater installation quote?

Before the equipment pad, pool plumbing, electrical work and hardscape are finalized whenever possible. For an existing pool, contact us ahead of your intended opening or replacement date so the assessment and any work by other trades can be coordinated.

What affects pool-heater installation cost?

Heater selection, gas demand, line distance, access and the condition of existing connections affect the quote. Changes to the pad, water connections, controls or electrical supply can add separate work. We confirm removal and disposal of an old heater rather than assuming they are included.

How should I maintain and winterize the new heater?

Follow the exact heater's maintenance and winterization instructions and coordinate seasonal care with qualified professionals. Water balance and circulation remain important to the heater, so include it in your pool-care plan. Keep airflow and service access clear, and arrange winterization before freezing weather.
