I am sort of desperate.

I bought one of those easy pools 12 diameter X 32 height.
It took 5-6 hours to fill up and my water heater is not able to keep up. (1700 gallons)

I bought one of those bucket heaters 1500 watts and left it submerged for 24 hours but it did not even budge the freezing water.

As you might imagine the kids are getting very agitated waiting to jump in the pool for the past 48 hours.

I live in rural minnesota and the temp still goes down at night.

I need ideas on how to heat this pool aside from leavingit under the sun.

I was thinking of buying one of those water heating elements 5000 watts and diong a Macgyver thing but my kids get electrocuted

suggestions needed.

I searched all over and could not find a portable water heater to met my needs
peace

Aren't those pools small enough to have yourself just bring out a bucket of hot water and mix with cold water?

Float gasoline on the surface of the water. Add match. Instant heated pool!
