24 to 72 hours
The time it takes for a heat pump to heat a pool can vary, depending on a few factors. Generally, though, a heat pump will heat a pool by about 11-degrees Celsius over a period of 24 to 72 hours.

It can cost as little as $30 per month to run a pool heat pump. Contact us for a thorough evaluation that outlines the monthly running costs.

A pool heater has electrical wiring and connections and should be installed by a qualified trade professional.

Yes.

For residential, we recommended yearly servicing on your pool heat pump by a licensed refrigeration technician. For commercial, we recommend a quarterly service due to the unit being more frequently used compared to residential.

The pool heat pumps we sell certainly do. To cool your pool’s water, the process is reversed so the heater will pull heat out of the water and put it back into the air. Just like a reverse cycle air conditioner.

A pool blanket can work hand in hand with your pool heat pump. You won’t require such a large unit if you use a pool blanket. Also, it lowers the energy costs because the unit won’t have to work so hard to bring the pool back to your desired temperature due to temperature loss overnight.

No you don’t. The pool heat pump connects to your existing pool equipment.

Electric heat pumps work by taking the outside air and pumping the heat into the water until the desired temperature is reached in a refrigeration cycle. It doesn’t need a lot of energy to do this and actually uses a lot less than its gas counterpart. When the pool is nearly at the desired temperature, the heat pump starts to ramp down and not draw as much electricity which of course saves you money.

With proper maintenance and care, a pool heat pump can last a lifetime.

Heating time will depend on the pool size, outside temperature as well as effective use of a pool blanket. Contact us for a thorough evaluation.

Not all pool heat pumps are created equally. Some models can be noisy but can heat your pool to your desired temperature much quicker. Rheem new inverter series will produce just enough noise to let you know it’s running if you are standing right next to it and without it being a nuisance. 

Regular maintenance is essential for keeping your pool heating system running efficiently and preventing costly repairs. We recommend scheduling professional servicing at least once a year, preferably before the swimming season. During the service, our technicians will clean the components, check the refrigerant levels (for heat pumps), inspect the electrical connections, and ensure that all parts are functioning properly. This proactive approach helps extend the lifespan of your pool heating system and maintain optimal performance.

Yes. You can set the pool pump and heat pump to run when the solar panels production starts.

This can vary depending on the size of your pool heat pump. Contact us today for a thorough evaluation that includes the running cost per month.

We provide reliable and professional services in Sydney, Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains.

We do recommend the average temperature to be 27 degrees.

We have single phase and three phase options available. It depends on the size of the unit you require to know how many amps are required.

The size of your pool, your location, the desired temperature and if you will be using a pool blanket impacts on the size pool heat pump you require. Generally, the bigger the pool, the bigger the pool heater. Feel free to give us a call and we can advise what size unit we would recommend.

Close to your pool equipment and on a flat surface. We sometimes install a prefabricated concrete slab to achieve an even surface and the Rheem pool heat pumps come with adjustable feet for slopes.
