- Swimming pool heat pump technology that heats or cools!
Calorex heat pumps provide a solution to temperature control which will reliably and economically heat or cool a swimming pool, regardless of ambient air temperature and location.
As well established swimming pool climate control experts, we have been developing effective heat pump technology across our brands for many years, which has led to producing some of the best options available on the market.
Where other types of heating are still used to warm private and commercial pools, we also understand that people don't understand how they work and why you should want to invest in a heat pump over other available options.
In this article we will explore some of the many reasons that heat pumps are highly beneficial to both indoor and outdoor pool owners.
Enjoyable swimming
Dependable swimming pool temperature control is a key feature to enjoyable swimming. For a swim to be refreshing and invigorating the pool water must be the right temperature for the swimmer, regardless of the influence of seasonal weather.
Winter heating
During winter, swimming pools continually evaporate water and radiate heat. The combination of these factors causes heat loss which must be replaced through a heater if comfortable water temperatures are to be maintained.
Summer cooling
During summer, swimming pools are subjected to massive solar gain. Coupled with high ambient humidity which prevent pools from cooling through evaporation, swimming pool water can become uncomfortably hot unless dynamically cooled. Pool coolers based on the heat pump technology principle can help.
The heat pump that heats or cools
Calorex heat pumps are specifically designed for swimming pool heating and cooling. This means that all components used in their construction are designed to give maximum efficiency and reliability at swimming pool conditions, even in the toughest of climates.
Why heat pumps?
Heat pumps are recognised as the most sustainable way to dynamically heat or cool swimming pool water saving both energy and operating costs.
Unlike electric flow heaters and boilers that can only provide pool heating. Calorex heat pumps will automatically either heat or cool your pool without the need for additional equipment.
As an added bonus, Calorex heat pumps will produce many times the energy they consume, dramatically reducing the energy consumption of your swimming pool. They are quick to install and easy to operate.
Fully self-contained units, Calorex heat pumps are an easy install and when it comes to operation, the units offer quiet, reliable and safe performance.
Year-round operation
Calorex heat pumps have various operating temperatures and will suit different environments, climates and altitudes.
