Product Description

Raypak's Heat Pumps feature exclusive DuraSteel powder-coated cabinets, 3 blade swept wing fangs, and a best in class warranty service.

Classic Model Standard Features:

Cabinet Durability

  • Exclusive DuraSteel™ Powder-Coated Cabinet
    Same rugged steel construction used by all the major air conditioner manufacturers. Fully louvered steel jacket protects the evaporation coil from storm debris, hail, and harsh weather. Not to mention the winning goal in a back yard soccer match. A plastic cabinet is no match for the all steel Raypak cabinet.

Quiet Operation

  • 3 Blade Swept Wing Fan
    Precision engineered and tuned for our heat pump. This means more air over the coil which translates to greater efficiency all while being whisper quiet!
  • Extremely Tough Composite Base
    Rustproof and ultrasound deading base material keeps your heat pump up and running for years while holding sound levels to an absolute minimum.

Compressor

  • Scroll Compressor
    Scroll compressors are quiet and efficient compared to piston type compressors. They provide higher efficiency, lower sound levels, superior durability, and unsurpassed reliability. The unique design of a scroll compressor actually wears in overtime, not out!

Titanium Heat Exchanger

  • Spiral Titanium Tube
    The spiral titanium tube heat exchanger provides a corrosion-free waterway that can withstand the abuses of harsh pool chemistry. The spiral tube helps reduce deposit build-up and increases efficiency by performing a “scoop-and-lift” action.
  • Internal Automatic Water Bypass
  • Plumbing Connections Off-set 2” PVC union connections

Digital Controls - Basic Functions

  • Pool/Spa Control
    Your digital heat pump pool heater can be set to have a different target temperature for your pool and spa. This allows you to dial in just the right spa temperature and never have to adjust it again. The pool can be set to a lower, more energy saving temperature.
  • Remote Compatible
    The digital heat pump pool heater can be easily controlled by most two-wire and three-wire remote systems. The digital display will flash “Remote” to let you know that it is under control of a third party automation system. Simply press the up and down arrows for 5 seconds to release the control from the remote mode and regain local control.
  • On Board Diagnostics
    Tells you, the homeowner if there is a problem. Provides the service technician with detailed diagnostic information in real english.

Digital Control - Built-in Mini Automation

  • Solar Priority Control
    Allows solar to be the primary heat source and your heat pump as a backup booster.
  • Heat Pump Priority Gas Heater Back Up Control
    Heat pump is the primary source for heat with gas as a booster when needed.
  • Multi Unit Control
    Stages heaters ability to come on by delaying the start.
  • 3-Way Valve Control
    Control and program 3-way valves to work with pool and spa mode on digital control. No external parts to buy.
  • Pump Control and Time Clock

Warranty 
2 years Labor and 7 years Parts 
10 years on the heat exchanger tube, see warranty for details.

Areas outside of Florida are 24 to 48 hours with certain designated major cities having same day service. Check with your Raypak sales person for warranty service details in your area.

Can the chiller option be added to this heat pump after installation? Thanks, R Corley

Unfortunately, there is no way to " Add-on " the chiller aspect to this heat pump. They are either heat pumps OR heat / cool pumps.

Hi, does this model have a reversing valve for power defrost? Thanks
 Reply

A  Answered on 2/10/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Megan C.

Hello, Will. The Raypack R8350TI-E does not have a reversing valve for power defrost. If offers Power Frost that Allows the heat pump to operate in colder weather by keeping the heat exchanger tubes from developing frost.  When the air temp drops below about 45F, the unit will shut down because there isn't enough heat in the air to allow for productive operation. Raypak does offer model PS9350ti with Rapid Defrost. Areas that are subject to lower ambient temperatures have a tendency to cause ice to build up on a heat pump's condensing coil. The Professional heat pump uses a patented refrigerant management system to rapidly defrost the heater. (The PS9350ti) currently is a Special Order item.

What is the difference between Raypack M8350ti-E-HC and M8350ti-E .
 Reply

A  Answered on 2/29/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Andy O.

Val, The difference between the R8350TI-E-HC Raypak Standard 133K BTU Digital Heat Pump W/ Chiller and the R8350TI-E Raypak Standard 133K BTU Digital Heat Pump is that the R8350TI-E-HC has a chiller so it can cool the pool in the warmer months whereas the R8350TI is just a heater.

Under the "Warrenty Exclusions" section what does the statement "This limited Warrenty does NOT apply" Is there a Warrenty if so what is it?
 Reply

A  Answered on 3/18/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Andy O.

Bob- Where it says "Warranty Exclusions" and then goes on to say "This Limited Warranty Does NOT Apply" it then goes on and lists reasons that would void the warranty or are not covered under warranty. The warranty on this heat pump, per Raypak, is as follow: If the Heater is installed in a single-family residential dwelling, the Applicable Warranty Periods are: two (2) years for labor and seven (7) years for parts, with no labor coverage in the third through seventh years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the titanium tube component of the titanium heat exchanger is warranted for 10 years from the Effective Date, with no labor coverage in the third through tenth years. If the Heater is installed anywhere other than a single-family residential dwelling, the Applicable Warranty Period for the Heater and its parts is limited to only one (1) year, parts and labor.

Hi, I am considering between the RS8350ti-E-QT Vs RS8350ti-E. Can you tell me the DB rating on both units. I read some place that e-qT is 59DB and need to confirm both and any other difference between the 2 besides 125K VS 133K output. Thanks
 Reply

A  Answered on 5/4/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Lennox H.

Hi, The RS8350ti-E-QT operates at a dB of 59, the dB rating is not listed for the RS8350ti-E but it will be higher than 59.

Heavy unit

Written on 6/23/2022 by Guest

This was placed on a pallet in the driveway. It is extremely hard to move, definitely not a one person job. We ended up using a hot tub sled to slide it through the grass to get it to the backyard. Most dealers will let you rent theirs for cheap, or even come help you do it. Be aware they do just ship it to the driveway, so have plans on how to move it to the final location before delivery.

I didn’t have a problem with the installation

Written on 7/6/2021 by Guest

The 1400,000 btu heat pump was delivered on time and the delivery guys put the heater in my garage. it’s fastened to a pallet and needs to go in the back yard about 70 feet away so I took the wheels the pressure washer and bolted them onto one end of the pallet one on each side. Now I need handles .the other end of the pallet I slid in 3 2x3x8 screwed one on each side and 1 in the middle . With the help of my neighbor we wheeled in to place. I thought this might help someone save a few bucks . The heater is working great. Thanks Inyo pools

Cold WATER BURRRR

Written on 3/22/2020 by Guest

Hello All,
It is fairly easy for the mechanically savvy. Turn off the power! ***If you are not comfortable working with electricity, Then STOP now! You should have an electrician or pool repair company do this project!

I wired the Heat pump system into and existing 220v connection I had for a Hot Tub. Make sure to use the correct gauge wiring or you'll have a bigger problem. This unit uses around 10,000 watts of electricity according to my energy monitoring system. It is a power HOG! Easily will use $10 a day in power. Runs for 8 hours when my pump is on.
Make sure to purchase the Heat Pump pad for the unit to sit on.

Most of this project truly is PVC plumbing. Pipes have to be cut and retrofit with existing plumbing.

There is no one story that will tell you how to do that, you just have to dive in. Make sure you use appropriate cleaner and glue. Measure twice and cut once. I used a miter box saw to make my cuts so it was a lot faster and had square ends on the pipe. Let the glue dry for a hour or so before turning the system back on!

Bought this unit to heat our 28000 gallon inground pool.

Written on 8/24/2019 by Guest

The user/installation manual was easy to follow. If you are comfortable gluing up PVC pipe and can correctly wire up a 220vac supply to the unit, you will not have any problems. My programming of the unit was very simple, since I was not trying to control any pumps or auxiliary equipment from the unit. However the manual gives detailed instructions on how to add these items.

We live in Tennessee so I'm hoping we will be able to use our pool through late September early October.

Inyopools.com was great to work with. After the order was placed they discovered they were out of stock on a flow meter I had ordered for this install. They called me and told me the issue, then recommended a replacement that was a little cheaper price, which was great. Everything arrived on time without any problems. I will definitely order from them again.
