Important Features of Your

New Heat Pump

ThermoLink® Heat Exchanger

The heart of your heat pump is the patented ThermoLink® heat exchanger. One of the primary causes of premature heat pump demise is the failure of the heat exchanger. Ordinary heat exchangers are made from a cupronickel alloy. This cupronickel material is susceptible to attack from the sanitizers used in pools and spas and from other related water chemistry conditions. Once the heat exchanger fails, the heat pump is ruined. The ThermoLink® heat exchanger tube is made from titanium, and is virtually impervious to water chemistry damage.

Scroll Compressor

50% fewer moving parts than standard piston-type compressors. This equates to much improved reliability and improved efficiency. Scroll compressors are also much quieter in operation than their piston-type counterparts. And, while all AquuaCal heat pumps are known for their low operating noise levels, if yours is a SuperQuietTM model, it’s very likely your heat pump will be quieter than any other item on the pool equipment pad.

Digital Controller

Digitally-based microprocessor controls water temperature to within 1º Fahrenheit of set point. Controller also permits user to predefine different pool and spa water temper- atures, and to prevent tampering by locking out controls via a pass code.

Corrosion-Proof Cabinet

The cabinet, being made from resilient, UV-Protected ABS material, has superior fade resistance and can never rust or corrode. You can expect the cabinet to retain a like- new appearance with only an occasional wash down and—if so desired—a quick waxing.

Heat & Cool Capability*

Puts you in full control, year round... Warms your pool or spa with the reliability and efficiency of our other heat pumps, but, with the flip of a switch, can also cool your pool or spa to refreshing temperatures during hot summer months. For cooler climates, Heat & Cool heat pumps offer unique advantages over passive defrost models. Please read more below...

Hot Gas Defrost*

Hot gas defrost heat pumps are uniquely equipped for an active defrost cycle. Active defrost involves directing hot refrigerant vapor to the heat collector, melting accumulat- ed ice away in a matter of a few minutes... then right back to heating. Standard defrost heat pumps may remain “off in defrost” for extended periods during very cold weather. Because of their ability to continue to operate–even during freezing weather–hot gas defrost models extend the swimming season longer than any standard-defrost heat pump.

*These features available in Icebreaker® and SuperQuietTM Models Only.
