Heat Pump Pool: Saves Energy and Money

Posted by admin on June 24th, 2009 at 03:24pm

While I am dreaming of my future home I am considering pool options. We have had various above ground pools and even one that we dug into the ground for a make shift in ground pool. If we go all the way with an in ground pool I would like to have it heated. Reviewing geothermal energy options I came across swimming pool heat pumps. I have found that the initial pool heat pump price is more than a gas swimming pool heater but in the long run it will be very much more cost effective and energy efficient.

The science behind a heat pump pool heater is not terribly complicated. This is the dumb blonde version of what happens to heat your pool water. Heat Pro heat pumps work as well as others by pumping freon through the system. Freon starts as a liquid with the use of a compressor and a condenser heat is pulled from the water in the air pushed through a compressor which heats the freon turning it into gas. The heat from the gas heats your pool water. As the gas heats the pool it returns to a liquid state and starts the process all over again.

A swimming pool heat pump price is determined by the make model and type of the pool heat pump installation costs. Pool heat pump prices may seem higher than that of a gas pool heater but they are extremely energy efficient making the initial investment in a heat pump pool heater a mart choice.

Hayward claims a 500% to 600% energy efficiency rating for each dollar you invest in heat pump pool heater you get a $5 – $6 return. Other heat pump pool heating manufactures like Pentair pool heat pumps and Raypak pool heat pumps are also reputable companies.
