How quickly will a heat pump heat my swimming pool?
Reply
A heat pump will take longer to heat a swimming pool compared to a gas or propane heater. A heat pump is designed to heat the pool cost effectively.

Are any of these Hayward heat pumps available in 110 volt?

Unfortunately the heat pumps are all 240v. We do carry natural gas or propane heaters that run on 110v which you can see here: http://www.inyopools.com/heaters_hayward_aboveground.aspx

If I have a large pool pump will I need to have a flow meter for the heat pump?
Reply
According to Hayward their heat pumps have a flow rate range of 30 to 70 GPM, with an optimum flow rate of 45 GPM. If your pump is capable of significantly more flow than this, a flow meter is recommended to insure the flow rate is within the prescribed range.

Can a heat pump be installed indoors?

Generally no. Heat Pumps work by transferring heat from the surrounding air to the pool water. If a heat pump is installed indoors there must be a continuous supply of warm air from which the heat pump can extract heat. If you must heat the air in the room before the heat pump can extract that heat to heat the pool, there would be no benefit to the heat pump.

Can a heat pump be installed under a deck?
Reply
No. Any installation that causes the air being discharged from the top of the heat pump to be recirculated back into the heat pump will cause a loss of capacity and efficiency in the heat pump. Installation of a heat pump under a deck, or a low over hang will allow the air being discharged to be drawn back in by the heat pump.

Does this model also cool the water?

Hello Vincent - The Hayward HP20654T will not cool the water. The Hayward HP31204T will heat and cool the pool water.

Once the water is at or near set temp, will it maintain it, or will it fluctuate a lot?
Reply
The heat pump has a thermostat. Once set it will turn off when the temp is reach and back on when it dips. If you are not using a solar blanket or other form of heat retention, the temp could fluctuate when the system is off.

My customer has 20x40 pool and wants heat pump added. The existing electrical service can only handle a 40 amp increase without a major upgrade. They only want a little additional heat for water at the end of the season. Is there a heat pump that might work for this customer?

I purchased this from Heatpro, when we hooked it up this year it is leaking from the bottom. I researched and it looks like it could be a crack in the condenser. Can that be replaced?

Hi, Lynn. The Condenser - HPX24024712 for this model can be replaced.
