Pool heating is a popular topic this time of year, as homeowners find themselves wanting to squeeze more months of use out of their pools as the outside temperatures drop.

Last week, we discussed the merits of solar-powered pool heating systems. Today, we’re looking at the GulfStream HI-5 Series of electric heat pumps available from LeverEdge dealers around the country.

How Do They Work?

Contrary to what some may think, heat pumps do not generate heat. Rather, they induce ambient heat from atmospheric air into the water that flows back into your pool.

It’s an incredibly efficient system. The total unit can be thought of as a kind of air conditioner engineered to operate in reverse. In climates like the Midwest or Southeast, heat pumps can be an especially good choice, as they’re able to maintain pool temperatures 5-10 degrees higher than what the water would be when standing alone.

Not All Heat Pumps Are Created Equal

There are a few features of the GulfStream HI-5 Series that set it apart from the competition. These include:

Ultra-quiet Operation

What pool owners love most about the GulfStream HI-5 Series is how quiet the units run. While in use, the total noise output is just 56 decibels, which is about as loud as a quiet conversation.

Advanced Automation

The thermostat and controls on GulfStream heat pumps are incredibly easy to ‘set and forget’ once the desired pool temperature is programmed. The controls and thermostat work in concert to perform beautifully, and you don’t have to worry about constantly changing your settings.

“Inside-out” Durability

A 100% full-flow titanium turbo heat exchanger and high-strength ABS cabinet result in a total unit that is as efficient as it is durable. GulfStream truly spares no expense on the build quality of their products!
