Key Heat Pump Considerations and Specifications:
BTU’s = BTU’s are essentially ‘Heating Power and Speed’.
The term “BTU” is short for “British Thermal Units”. It's a form of measurement that measures energy. One BTU refers to the amount of energy that's required to increase the temperature of a pound of water by 1° F.
C.O.P. = COP is the measurement of pool heater heating ‘Efficiency‘.
The energy efficiency of heat pump swimming pool heaters is measured by coefficient of performance (COP). The higher the COP number, the more efficient.
FEATURES = Such as Titanium Heat Exchanger, Digital Controls, Noise Levels, AHRI Certification, Etc.
The Features of a pool heat pump and how important it is will vary based on the person and use case. There are some features which in our opinion are a ‘must have’ which are:
- Titanium Heat Exchanger = this will protect your heat exchanger from the chemicals you use in your pool. This is especially important when you may be using a ‘chemical stain remover’ - those can destroy heat exchangers as many are either metal’s based or acid based, both of which are horrible on a normal heat exchanger. The other example is just ‘shocking’ your pool. Having a Titanium Heat Exchanger is a must in our opinion; a Titanium Heat Exchanger is protected from all chemicals you may use in your pool (which this Hayward Heater and all Hayward HeatPro heaters use Titanium Heat Exchangers)
