When it comes time to choose a pool heat pump for your swimming pool, you might find that you have a lot more questions than you have answers. To help demystify the process of choosing a pool heat pump, we’re offering these few points to consider when determining which pool heat pump is right for you.

There are three main categories related to the overall quality of any given pool heat pump. Each of these categories is explained below, with a brief description of what to look for.

Performance and Efficiency

In the world of pool heat pumps, performance and efficiency are near the top of the list of important features. After all, the cost to operate a pool heat pump widely varies according to the pumps efficiency rating, which means that less efficient pool heat pumps are going to cost more money to operate over the long term.

Pool heat pumps like the GulfStream Hi-5 Series feature 100% titanium components and super-sized evaporator coils that work together to provide a more efficient, better-performing pool heat pump.

Control and Design

A pool heat pump isn’t going to be very useful to you unless you know how to operate it. This is why it’s critical to look for a pump that has intuitive controls and an easy-to-read interface, preferably one that displays real words instead of error codes.

Design is also an important factor in choosing a pool heat pump. A better design will often yield quieter, less obtrusive operation. Also, better-designed pool heat pumps tend to last longer.

Quality of Manufacturing

Very few pool heat pump manufacturers are able to produce a pool heat pump that is reasonably priced, easy to operate, and built exceedingly well. At the LeverEdge, we’ve settled on GulfStream as our manufacturer of choice because we’ve evaluated the best offerings from throughout the industry. Gulfstream won out in the end.
