But pool owners still need to ensure that the right product is correctly sized to any pool requirements – taking into account the pool size, cover, swimming season
O2 Heatpumps have four differently sized machines in the eco7 range designed for spa or pool requirements; with the larger three all coming complete with their own cover to protect them during the winter season. The eco7 range has an energy saving controller so the pool temperature can be set at different temperatures on any day, at any time day or night, or even to come on or off at specified times (e.g. an economy 7 tariff). So reducing the pool temperature by a couple of degrees when it’s not in use makes considerable savings. Using a product such as the eco7 costs considerably less to run than electric, gas or oil.
For pool owners with a holiday home or who travel a lot there’s an added feature of eco7’s SMS control unit which allows your mobile phone to control the heat pump from anywhere in the world by SMS text! All you have to do is text a one line command to your heat pump, and you have complete control over turning it on or off, setting the
temperature and checking the status. Perfect if you have a holiday home and want the pool water warm for your arrival! O2 Heatpumps has an established network of
distributors and engineers in the UK, Spain, Portugal, France and Channel Islands.
As well as the established and environmentally-friendly range of Calorex air source heat pumps designed specifically for the domestic pool market, Golden Coast also supplies a range of commercial air source heat
pumps to heat swimming pools economically.
New this year for the
commercial sector is the Calorex ‘Pro-Pac’, a range of outdoor air- to-water heat pumps ranging in size from 43kW to 140kW. Providing heated water for pools without the need for supplementary heating, the units have a minimum operating ambient temperature of 7°C, with the Pro-Pac Reverse cycle system capable of operating in temperatures as low as -15°C. Pro-Pac heat pumps can also be specified for non-pool applications to provide hot water at temperatures up to 65°C and are ideal for hotels, camp sites, holiday parks or any other commercial location where there is a high demand for hot water. In addition, Golden Coast can supply the full range of Calorex commercial heat pumps, including the Variheat and Delta units, with the Delta 14 and 16 having been recognised as compliant to the UK
government’s Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme, by meeting the stringent requirements in terms of providing low carbon and energy efficient environmental control systems for swimming pool halls. The ECA scheme enables pool operators using these units in any installation to benefit from 100% write-off against taxable profits for the first year. All Calorex heat pumps give pool owners or site operators the opportunity to substitute or replace their electric or fossil fuelled heating systems.

development of the Electro Heat range of heat pumps to ensure that we are able to offer the market a heat pump of the highest quality to ensure maximum performance and reliability, and the Sub Zero models are a perfect addition to the existing range,” comments Tony Fisher, Waterco Europe. The Sub Zero version enables the consumer to extend the swimming season by using an automatic hot gas de-icing function, enabling it to continue to heat the pool water
even when the air temperature drops below zero! The digital touch pad control panel provides a continuous digital pool temperature display and allows accurate pool temperature control in increments of 0.1 degrees! Also incorporating a self diagnostic system and the latest in “smart technology” ensures years of trouble free operation. Steve Martin, Director of Paramount Pools said: “We are really happy to be working with Waterco as the distributor of the Waterco heat pumps.
