What Is A Swimming Pool Heat Pump and How Does It Compare To Other Pool Heaters?
A swimming pool heat pump is a great way to warm your pool and is very comparable to other models of pool heaters. Heat pumps use outdoor air, compress it thereby heating it & sending the heated water to your pool. Heat pumps are so efficient that they are the cheapest way to heat your pool- less expensive than natural gas. This makes the heating process clean, efficient, ecologically safe. They usually cost slightly more up front that gas heaters, but operation is much cheaper in the long run. They are much cheaper than solar heating.
A swimming pool heat pump removes “FREE HEAT” from the air and transfers it to the freon via an evaporator. The heated freon passes through the heat exchanger where the heat is transferred to the pool water. The main reason heat pumps are becoming so popular is that they are efficient and effective, offering very significant operating costs savings compared to fossil fuel heaters while being environmentally friendly.
