100A to 400A are common for most homes. I have seen a 600A used for an
industrial application, although that was 3 phase.
Here is a 800A on Amazon. That's about as big as I am finding...

Do they get any larger?

I have a 1,000 amp on my water heater back home. I have my own transformer where the power company ran 13.8kv to it. ^_^

Much bigger. I have seen computer room panels protected with 1600a
breakers 208v 3 phase.
Most companies list "low voltage" (600 v) up to around 3000 amps.

Sounds like a no nonsense pool heater. It will bring up a 100k gallon
pool 30 degrees in a half hour.

Something there doesn't sound right. By my calculations it would take about
100 times as long to heat that pool. We're talking about 1000 amps at 240V, 240 Kwatts into the heater, right?
