Pool Heatpump Technology
A pool heat pump is a very efficient electrical water heater as it extracts heat out of the ambient air and converts it to usable heat that in turn heats water circulating through a heat exchanger.
Their popularity has however increased drastically due to the increase in the price of electricity in the recent years and this increase in demand has brought down the price of manufacturing units.
A heat pump works like an air conditioning unit in reverse. It extracts heat from the ambient surrounding air enabling it to heat the refrigerant which is then compressed causing it to get even hotter. This refrigerant is then run through a heat exchanger where this thermal energy is drawn off to heat the water and the refrigerant is allowed to expand again, thus cooling it down and enabling it again to absorb more heat from the surrounding air.
Electricity is only used to run a fan and compressor and the heat energy is provided indirectly by the sun and surrounding environment. A hot water heat pump typically produces up to 4 times more heat energy than the electrical energy it consumes. So by connecting a heat pump to your existing hot water cylinder you can save up to 75% on your current geyser energy consumption.
A heat pump is not directly dependent on the sun hence it can operate day and night, winter and summer ensuring you the highest possible performance of hot water 24/7.
Swimming Pool Heat Pump
Pool heating heat pumps are designed to make you get the most from your pool. With pool temperatures programmable up to 40 deg Celsius, you can now swim all year round. No longer do you need to have your roof covered with solar panels or spend thousands of Rand on electricity. Heat pumps are compact, quiet and very simple to install. It will provide you with many years of trouble free pool heating.
Our pool heat pumps use the latest in heat pump technology resulting in extremely low operational cost. For every R1.00 worth of electricity this unit can give you more than R4.00 worth of heat output to heat the pool quickly and efficiently.
Key Features:
Swimming pool heat pump are available in various models ranging from 5.4Kw to 100Kw and are ideal for Residential swimming pools,Lodge& Resort pools, Olympic size public and School swimming pools.
Heat pumps can increase your swimming season towhole year round and achieve pool temperatures of up to 35°C – 40°C (season and installation location dependant).
Some of the unique features of heatpumps :
- Digital temperature settings and display ( easy to control and use)
- More heatpumps may be added in parallel at later date if the temperature is to low
- Titanium heat exchanger with a 5 year quality guarantee
- Low noise 47-58 dB(A)
- Weatherproof: Power coated beige casing or Stainless steel option
- Auto Pump Saver: Pool heat pump only activated when pool requires heating as its thermostatically controlled
- Automatic Defrost: Models come with auto defrost down to +2°C ambient ( ideal for cold areas)
- The units carry a 12 month electrical warranty & 5 year heat exchanger warranty. T&Cs apply.
