Swimming Pool Heat Pumps Prices
Swimming pool heat pumps do not generate heat; they just capture it and
transfer it from the air to the water, thus providing an efficient and
environmentally friendly system for heating your swimming pool!
Some other benefits of heated swimming pools include:
1. You will prefer swimming. The warm water is inviting rather than
cold, and you can swim comfortably throughout the season.
2. Extend the swimming season. When you can use the swimming pool
regardless of the weather, why only use it for two months in a year?
3. Automation. Set the temperature and let the heat pump finish its
work.
4. Efficiency. Our system is specifically designed for swimming pools,
which means the components used provide the highest efficiency.
Does the swimming pool need a heat pump?
Regardless of whether your swimming pool is above ground or underground,
all swimming pools should use heat pumps, whether it is an air source or a
ground source.
Heat pumps are generally not expensive. They are reasonably priced, easy
to install and maintain, and are essential items. Having a garden swimming pool
may be aesthetically pleasing, but if the water is not warm and unattractive,
you may not want to use your swimming pool as often as possible.
How efficient is the heat pump?
They do not have a simple efficiency number to use. Their efficiency is
measured by the coefficient of performance (COP). The COP averaged 5.25 across
the range. This means that for every unit of electricity you put in to run the
compressor, you can get up to 5.25 units of heat from the heat pump.
Is the swimming pool heat pump worth buying?
The cost of pool heat pumps is usually higher than that of traditional
pool heaters, but this is offset by lower annual operating costs. If you want
to reduce heating costs, but also want to extend the outdoor swimming pool
season, then the pool heat pump is worth the investment.
How much does it cost to buy a heat pump for a swimming pool?
Dedicated swimming pool heat pumps are much cheaper than air source heat
pumps. Air source heat pumps are usually connected to our homes for central
heating and hot water production.
The price for a dedicated swimming pool heat pump starts at around
£1,500, but for a complete air handling unit with thermal management, you may
need more than £15,000.
How much does it cost to run a swimming pool heat pump?
The cost of running a heat pump depends on the size of the swimming
pool, the ambient temperature in which the pump is running, and the target
temperature to be reached. As an approximation, heating a 10 million x 4
million swimming pool to 28°C would cost £5 per day.
How long does it take for a heat pump to heat a swimming pool?
The swimming pool heat pump takes 24 to 72 hours to heat the swimming
pool to 11°C. This time will vary depending on the size of your pool, the power
of the pool heat pump and the ambient temperature.
Should I run my pool heat pump at night?
If you plan to swim first thing in the morning, you should run the pool
heat pump at night. How and when you choose to run a pool heat pump depends on
how often you swim and what time of day. The use of automated control systems
can help reduce costs.
In what month is the heat pump most suitable for use?
Generally, heat pumps are only sold in summer. Yes, all manufacturers
say that they can work in an ambient temperature of 0-5 degrees, but the heat
output is very small. In fact, at these temperatures, you are unlikely to want
to swim. Ideally, the heat pump should not be turned on before the ambient air
temperature reaches 15-20 degrees.
The heat pump is perfect for heating your swimming pool during the
summer (May to September). However, with the various climate changes we have
experienced in recent years, we have received reports from customers that they
have been running heat pumps from April to late October!
How do I adjust the heat in the swimming pool?
Unfortunately, due to too many variables such as the heating value, wind
speed, water speed, and groundwater level of the swimming pool structure, and
whether the insulation cover is applied, it is not an accurate science to
determine the amount of heat in the swimming pool.
Therefore, the heat pump manufacturer's calculation is based on the
amount of heat (kW) that your pool may release per hour. As you will see, for
certain pool sizes, we recommend using two sizes of heaters. If your budget
allows, it is better to buy a larger size because it is more cost-effective,
more efficient, and therefore faster heating time.
