It moves heat from the surrounding air into your pool water rather than burning fuel, which is why running costs sit at a fraction of gas heating.

This SQ225 is the largest at 143,000 BTU, so it heats a bigger pool or reaches setpoint faster on the same pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it need three-phase power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Despite the capacity, this configuration is single phase at 208-230V, 60 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does a heat pump compare to a gas heater?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA heat pump moves existing heat rather than generating it, so running costs are dramatically lower. The trade-off is slower heat-up and reduced output as air temperature falls, which makes it best suited to extending your swim season rather than heating a cold pool quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size pool does it suit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing depends on surface area, desired temperature rise, wind exposure and whether the pool is covered. An undersized heat pump simply runs continuously without reaching setpoint. Send us your pool dimensions if you are unsure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it work in cold weather?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOutput falls as air temperature drops. Heat pumps work best above roughly 50 F ambient, which is why they suit season extension rather than winter heating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho should install it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA qualified pool professional, with electrical connection by a licensed electrician. Professional installation is generally required to validate manufacturer warranty coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ps4u-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the part number for this heat pump?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAquaCal lists this heat pump under part number SQ225AHDSBPB. Quote SQ225AHDSBPB when you cross-reference against your equipment manual or a specification sheet, so you are comparing the same configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I confirm this suits my pool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeat pump sizing depends on pool surface area, the temperature rise you want, wind exposure and whether you use a cover. Send us your pool dimensions and location before you order and we will confirm the fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this ship freight?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Pool heat pumps of this capacity are palletised freight items. Please review delivery terms at checkout, and make sure someone is available to receive and inspect the unit on delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes a heat pump need an electrician?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Pool heat pumps require a dedicated circuit with correct bonding and grounding under electrical code. Have a licensed electrician handle the supply side and disconnect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does it take to heat a pool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypically 24 to 72 hours for the initial heat-up depending on pool size, starting temperature and ambient conditions. After that the unit maintains temperature far more quickly, and a cover makes a substantial difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there a warranty on this heat pump?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt carries the standard AquaCal manufacturer warranty. The terms are set by AquaCal, and coverage generally requires installation by a licensed professional.
