Swimming pool heating solutions FAQs

Why do swimming pools need heating solutions?

When pool temperatures dip, it does more than ruin the experience for swimmers – it can have serious consequences on their health and wellbeing. To keep bathers safe and customer satisfaction high, keeping your pool water at desired temperatures is crucial.

Plus, water constantly evaporating from a pool surface accounts for up to 90% of its heat loss. While using a pool cover can compensate for this when your pool is not in use, during operation you must have a heating solution in place to maintain comfortable temperatures.

What types of heating solutions are commonly used in swimming pools?

Swimming pool heat pumps are the most effective solution for maintaining correct water temperatures, and are divided into two main categories:

  • On/off heat pumps
  • Inverter heat pumps

While other heating systems are available, including natural gas and oil heaters, these do not offer the same coefficient of performance (COP) and efficiency of a well-designed heat pump.

For more information about our extensive range of swimming pool heat pumps, speak to our experts.

How do swimming pool heat pumps work?

There are two main types of swimming pool heat pumps – both of which operate on similar principles. They extract heat from the air and pass it to the pool water to increase the temperature. Each heat pump includes three core components: an evaporator, a compressor and a heat exchanger.

On/off heat pumps have the compressor running at maximum speed under a fixed frequency. It typically needs to be switched on or off multiple times a day to keep pool temperatures at the right level.

Inverter heat pumps can automatically adjust their frequency based on the heat of the pool. This means that it is only supplying heat when temperatures fall below a certain level, reducing its energy usage in the meantime. This often results in significant energy savings.

Are your heating solutions suitable for both indoor and outdoor pools?

Yes. We engineer our pool heat pumps to operate in temperatures as low as -15ºC. This means they work in indoor and outdoor pools, and can extend pool seasons into the autumn and winter.

Are your heating solutions suitable for commercial-sized swimming pools?

Yes. We offer a range of swimming pool heating solutions for larger swimming pools that can automatically adapt to changes in climate and pool usage.

What is the ideal water temperature for a swimming pool?

There is no ‘one ideal temperature’ for a swimming pool – it often depends on the context it is used. For competitive or public swimming pools, this ranges between 24ºC and 28ºC. For therapeutic pools and spas, this can rise to between 34ºC and 40ºC.

How energy efficient are your swimming pool heat pumps?

We pride ourselves on engineering some of the most energy-efficient heat pumps in Europe. For example, the average coefficient of performance (COP) for many of our inverter heat pumps exceeds 10 – this means that for every 1kw of electricity these systems consume, they generate over 10kw of heat output.

They also utilise eco-friendly refrigerants with a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) rating.

Can your heating solutions be retrofitted to my existing pool?

Yes. In our 40+ year history we have devised and implemented heating solutions for all ages and types of swimming pools. For more information, talk to our team about your current pool and we can advise on the right system for your needs.

Can your heating solutions be controlled remotely?

Yes. Many of our swimming pool heat pumps include built-in Wi-Fi modules that allow you to control their performance and operation remotely.

In addition, our intelligent inverter models can automatically adjust their speed and frequency based on the surrounding climate, pool occupants and more factors, meaning temperatures stay consistent without any input from you.

Can your heating solutions also be used to cool my swimming pool?

Yes. Many of our inverter heat pumps can also be employed on hot summer days to cool the water temperature down to safer, more comfortable levels for your bathers.

Can I buy your heating solutions for swimming pools online?

We don’t make our swimming pool heat pumps available to purchase online to ensure that every system we design, manufacture and supply fits your exact requirements. By taking a consultative approach with a highly-trained expert, we make sure that you are only recommended equipment that meets your needs – and fulfils these in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible.

Across all of our products, VAT-registered companies can get a quote very quickly by pressing 'I want to buy' and inserting your enquiry and contact details.
