SMART Heat Pump
Overview
A pool really doesn’t need to be limited to Summer and the warmer months! In Australia there’s such a lovely climate in most places that with a little bit of clever heating we really can enjoy our swimming pool investment all year round. The SMART Heat Pump is an environmentally friendly option to heat your pool. Operating on a similar principal to your refrigerator or air conditioner, the SMART Heat Pump uses environmentally friendly refrigerant gas that extracts the latent heat from the air and transfers this heat into the pool water.
A nearly silent compressor moves the refrigerant gas through a coil (called evaporator) through which air is forced and collects heat from the surrounding atmosphere. The now superheated refrigerant gas then passes through a titanium heat exchanger (called condenser) which transfers the heat into the pool water and the cycle starts again.
So in fact, the power used by the heat pump does not create any heat, it is simply used to compress and move the refrigerant gas through the evaporator and condenser to collect and transfer heat from the atmosphere into your pool water.
For every 1 kW of electricity consumed, the SMART Heat Pump will collect up to 6 kW of heat from the atmosphere. Sunshine is not necessary and your SMART Heat Pump will continue to heat your pool in air temperatures as low as 7 degrees. So even if the nights are cold, or the days leading up to the weekend are cool, your SMART Heat Pump can heat and maintain your pool water temperature at a comfortable swimming temperature.
Benefits
Unlike many other heat pumps, the corrosion proof titanium heat exchanger is enclosed in a purpose designed and fully injection moulded housing for maximum strength and long life.
The fully moulded plastic SMART Heat Pump case is impervious to corrosion and guarantees maximum life regardless of location, “seaside” tropical north or outback.
The high quality commercial digital thermostat ensures the pool water temperature is accurate. The scroll compressor is widely regarded as the quietest operating system and moulded plastic fan is purposely designed for its application.
The SMART Heat Pump Features and Benefits:
- Whisper quiet
- Super Efficient
- Maintains the pool temperature 24 hours a day
