heat pump

I searched the forum here for thoughts on a 110/120v heat pump and didn't find much in terms of actual usage / review, so I've gambled and bought this 35K BTU one from Amazon for $1,360 that should be here today. This is our 2nd year with our 9x18 Intex XTR and what my wife and I found last...

Hello, Warm temps are here in NC and my wife/kids have been itching to use our new (to us) pool in the house we moved into last year. We figure that a heater could get us ~1 month extra on both ends of the swim season. Our pool has a electric heat pump that is still in place but it is...

Hi TFP, this is my first post here. I was looking for help on finding the manual for this hayward HP50AEE heat pump, as it did not come with it when purchased and I can't find any information about this specific control panel online. I called hayward and they gave me the part number HPX72200070...

Looking for any ideas on this. I have an Omnilogic setup that has been working great with valve controlled solar heating for years. I added a Hayward Variable Speed Heat Pump to the system to give my system a boost whenever solar was not available. I added the heat pump slaved to the...

We have a 13 year old UltraTemp 120 heat pump (came with the house we moved to 4 years ago). It’s definitely on its last legs - had some problems with the fan not going on last year (low refrig alarm sometimes came on, but usually a manually push on the fan would get it going and stay on and...

Hi, our fiberglass pool water showed copper levels for the first time since having it for 4 years. I have been trying to find the source and still not sure what it is. In reading different threads heaters are usually a cause but when I read the specifications for my heat pump, it says it has a...

I currently have an outdoor sub-panel that is run off a 30 amp breaker on the main panel in order to run the pump, ozone generator, and uv light. The sub-panel is literally on the other side of the wall from the main panel, less than 5 feet away. I can't quite tell the gauge of the wire, but it...

Hi all, I have an Evo-heat heat pump located in Australia. I have had it just on three years and now the unit has totally failed. It's a expensive 27kW 3 phase unit. The techs said the unit failed because; 1 - the coupling to the water pipes was not properly installed so pool water ended up...

Sorry, this might go long... Need some help with my new Ruud (Raypak) heat pump, hoping there are some of you that have the same 6550 series Crosswind V. We bought from Recreational Warehouse (Model number delivered was 6550IT-E) and sold as a 118k unit. It was installed a few days before...

Hello, We live in the SF Bay Area and are planning to put in a new pool, our current plans do not include a spa because we live in a home without a gas line. Due to our current city ordinances we can’t add a new gas line either. We are planning to install solar heating for the pool. My question...

I currently have a Teledyne Laars EPC 325 (Model No. EPCII325BN) pool heater which could possibly be from the 70's or 80's. It works fine and heats both my pool and spa; however, it's very inefficient. Heating the spa is quick and okay, but heating the pool costs a small fortune. My pool is...

I have had this heat pump (HP21404T) working very well for over 2 years - suddenly starting tripping shortly after turning on, anywhere between 5-45 seconds, usually short. My pool guys are swamped - 1 - attached photos 2 - electrician who originally installed came by, lines, power readings...

We have a Pentair UltraTemp 120 H/C heat pump! We just got our pool lat last summer so haven’t played with the heater much! I turned it on today just to make sure it was working! It ran for awhile but shut off long before the temp I had it set at! I was trying to figure out what was happening...

Hi all - there are similar threads out there, but none that seem exactly right. I want to use my Z4 to control switching between heat pump and natural gas heater (in the way it would switch between solar and natural gas). I have an inground pool and spa with VSP and Natural Gas Heater...

Hi TFP! New member and first time posting. I have decided to go the Owner Build (OB) route with our pool. We have an existing pool with no heater and no spa that needs to be re-plastered. Since we are re-plastering it, we have decided to add on a spa. No, I do not want a free standing above...

Hi, I have a SWG (Autopilot DIG 220), single speed water pump and Jandy Ti5000 Air source heat pump. The timer in the SWG turns on/off the pump as per wiring in manual. The heater turns on/off the water pump when heat is needed. All three can be on together, two (SWG and water pump), two (water...

The coil in our Hayward HP21003T heat pump installed around 2009 and heating our 14,000 gal lap pool since we bought the house in 2015 turned into a block of ice a few days ago. The display showed "defrost" mode. I shut down the heat pump, let it thaw out, and started it back up. The...

I have an old unheated pool in the coastal area of San Diego. I'm planning to add heating, but have to decide what type of heater is most cost-effective. Pool size is about 15,000 gallons and there is no spa. Temperature runs between 50-75 deg throughout the year and humidity averages around...

Hi All! Opened my pool for its second season. Haven’t gotten any heat out of my Pentair Ultratemp 120 Heat Pump. Only used for one northeast season. Pool was winterized by a professional company. Last season it worked great, heated the 10,000 gallon pool quickly and was even able to make it a...

Has anyone heard of a temperature rating for vinyl liners? I have an inground vinyl liner pool and my pool supplies store owner (also was the builder) insists that I need to keep my temps in the mid-80s or lower to keep from ruining the liner. I'm having a hard time finding anything online to...

So I know heating a pool cost a lot, but If these calculations are within this range it might be ok. I'm in northern california. our natural gas is provided by PG&E. I checked my bill and found that we pay $1.36 cents to $1.89 per therm, up from 92 cents – $1.40 in 2012. In addition, there is a...
