A NOTE TO YOU
Thank you for buying our Waterco Heat Pump Pool Heater
A heat pump pool heater is a highly efficient, cost effective method of pool heating. Intelligent operation and care
will result in many years of enjoyment and pleasure.
The Waterco heat pump pool heater is a self contained unit designed specifically for pool heating. The unit
operates on the proven principle of heat pump technology. Using the latest technology in heat collection available,
the Earth and its atmosphere, the Waterco pool heater processes the sun’s free energy extracting heat from the
sun warmed air and transferring it efficiently to the pool water. Because the Waterco pool heater moves the free
heat from the outside air to the pool water, rather than create heat, as a fossil fuel or electric resistance heater
does, the Waterco pool heater can heat your swimming pool with up to 80% lower operating costs than other less
efficient, while maintaining your water temperature at all times during the pool heating season.
In general, compared to other types of pool heaters such as gas or oil fired, the Waterco pool heater has a lower
heating capacity on a kW/ hr basis. Therefore, it will be required to operate longer to accomplish the desired
results. At certain times, it may be necessary to run the heat pump up to 24 hours per day. However, this should
not be of concern to the owner because the heater is designed to operate continuously. Even though it may
operate continuously for many hours, it will still heat the pool with far greater economy than other types of
heaters.
As with all pool heaters, you are advised to use a pool cover at night and when the pool is not in use. This will
keep evaporation, the greatest source of heat loss, to a minimum, greatly reducing the overall pool heating costs.
During warmer weather, the pool cover may not be required.
Please complete and mail in the Ownership Registration Card provided at the end of this guide. The card helps
us to notify you about any new information on your heater.
