To heat a 30,000-gallon pool by 1°F, you need about 250,200 BTUs (since 1 gallon of water requires 8.34 BTUs to raise 1°F). To calculate the total BTUs needed, multiply 250,200 by the number of degrees you want to raise the pool’s temperature. For example, to heat the pool by 10°F, you’d need about 2,502,000 BTUs.
