A Heat Pump is like a reverse fridge and uses electricity to operate. The free heat is
extracted from the ambient air, upgraded with a compressor, and then pumped to the
water. Therefore, it is very cost effective to heat the required pool water needed for the
swimming pool even in the colder months of the year, as the electrical input is not to
generate heat but just to move the free heat to the water, no matter what the weather
condition is. Due to their high efficiency, “Performance Plus” heat pumps have a low.
Compressors make up a vast majority of the energy used in heat pumps. Therefore, compressor selection is very important to improving the overall efficiency of any pool or other applications heat pumps. Almost all of heat pumps are fitted with super efficient and reliable Copeland Scroll Compressors.
They are one of the mos t rel i able compressors available. Copeland Scroll Compressors’ patented scroll design features:
- Reliability Copeland Scroll compressors are one of the most reliable compressors available. Copeland patented scroll design has superior liquid handling capability.
- Efficiency Copeland Scroll compressors achieve high efficiencies due to 100% volumetric efficiency during the compression process.
- Size andWeight Copeland Scroll compressors’ small footprint and vertical orientation reduces the square footage needed. This allows us to have a sleek design.
- Sound Copeland Scroll compressors function with 70% fewer moving parts, and no discharge or intake valves. The scroll design allows several pockets of gas to be compressed simultaneously providing a smooth, nearly continuous compression cycle. This enables the Copeland Scroll compressor to operate more smoothly and quietly, with less vibration.
- Testing Copeland Scroll compressors go under rigorous testing to guarantee that they meet industry standards. This would assure contractors that they can install a unit without having to worry about multiple call-backs and service time.
The titanium tube heat exchanger assembly has been
developed from years of hands on experience and
dedication to gain the technology we now put into each heat
exchanger. Each Heat Exchanger is individually sized to meet
the capacities of each individual heat pump. This is achieved
by manufacturing the complete heat exchanger here at
HWHP Ltd. As swimming pools have high volume filtration
systems “Performance Plus” heat exchanger cases are also
designed for high volumes and in most cases can handle the
full volume of the filtration system with only a minimal
pressure drop or by adding approximately 10 kpa onto the
filters operating pressure. An extra water pump to operate
the heat pump is not normally required offering a further reduction in heating costs.
In New Zealand Hot Water Heat Pumps Ltd offers a 30 year limited warranty against
corrosion of the titanium tube within the heat exchanger, regardless of the pools
chemistry. (Some warranties are subject to proper pool chemistry beingmaintained.)
Each “Performance Plus” Heat Pump is equipped with our
unique water flow switch, which allows the heat pump to
operate automatically with the pool filtration system.
“Performance Plus” Heat Pumps are fitted with a temperature
sensor, sensing the pool water temperature entering the heat
exchanger.
Some models are supplied with an external temperature sensor assembly for an onsite installation.
Temperature control is by an electronic temperature
controller with temperature readout in tenths of a degree.
(Whole degrees are too inaccurate.) The pools
temperature is maintained within 0.5 degrees Celsius, 0.2 if
requested.
The aluminum fins of the evaporator are epoxy coated
for extra protection in corrosive environments such as
salt laden sea air and highly corrosive chlorinated air. The
fins are mechanically expanded onto rifled copper tubes
for better heat transfer.

The refrigerant is controlled by bi‐directional thermostatic expansion (TX) valve finely tuned for optimum performance. It also controls the refrigerant flow when in reverse cycle defrosting during low ambient operation.
The units cabinet and drain tray are constructed from
high grade galvanized steel and polyester powder coated
for increased durability.
External fasteners are stainless steel.
Features:
- Built In flow switch.
- Built in temperature sensor.
- 3 speed low noise level direct drive propeller fans with guards.
- Thermostatic expansion valve for optimum refrigerant control all year round.
- Epoxy coated evaporator coils
- Individually sized titanium tube heat exchanger for each model
- Molded polyethylene heat exchanger case with heavy duty end plates.
- Reverse cycle de‐ice standard on all models.
- Rubber mounting pads for positioning under heat pump feet.
