How a Pool Heat Pump Works

A pool heat pump draws warmth from the surrounding air and transfers that energy into the pool water through a refrigerant cycle. It is designed for steady temperature maintenance, while actual performance depends on ambient conditions, pool heat loss and the selected unit.

True BTU and AHRI-Certified Performance

BTU describes heating output. When comparing heat pumps, look at ratings tested under equivalent conditions rather than relying on a product name. Pool Products Canada identifies AHRI certification as third-party testing that supports published performance ratings on applicable models.

  • Compare tested output under the same conditions
  • Do not assume a number in a model name is the verified output
  • Consider performance, features, warranty and support together
