Why Choose a Heat Pump Over a Gas Pool Heater

Swimmers everywhere can smile when they choose a heat pump over a gas pool heater thanks to the money and energy they’ll save both in the fall and in the early spring. As the days get shorter and the fall colors start making their debut, many pool owners start looking for ways to extend their pool season. Though most people have heard of options like gas to heat their swimming pools, many don’t know that there is a much better option.  So, what exactly is a heat pump? A heat pump is a type of mechanical device that moves heat from one place to another. In the case of a swimming pool, a heat pump will take the warmth from the air and transfer it into pool water, using what is called free heat.

Choose a Heat Pump for Stellar Savings

Gas prices rise and fall, which means a gas pool heater can very easily become too expensive for pool owners to run. A heat pump, on the other hand, is an affordable and energy-efficient option for heating a pool. AquaComfort Solutions makes some of the most reliable heat pumps on the market with products designed to save pool owners money. In fact, the HeatCOOL AquaComfort Heat Pump can save swimmers up to 70% on energy costs when compared to a gas heater.

How Does a Heat Pump Work?

A heat pump works similarly to an air conditioner in that it moves air from one place to another. When comparing a heat pump to a gas heater, it’s important to remember that a heat pump doesn’t actually create heat. Instead, it pulls warmth from the air and transfers to the pool’s water. This makes them an extremely efficient option because they aren’t creating any energy, they’re simply using what is already there. And you don’t have to rely on electricity or gas to produce the heat that is transferred to pool water — making long term use incredibly cost effective.

Extend the Season with the Right Heating

Most pool heating options allow owners to extend their pool season at least for a few weeks at the end of summer. But when swimmers choose an AquaComfort heat pump over a gas heater, they can easily extend their swimming time by a few months. AquaComfort Solutions’ heat pumps are designed to operate in temperatures as low as 40 degrees Fahrenheit, which means that pool owners can start swimming earlier in the spring and keep going well into the fall.
