A swimming pool heat pump removes "FREE
HEAT" from the air and transfers it to the freon via an
evaporator. The heated freon passes through the heat exchanger
where the heat is transferred to the pool water. The main
reason heat pumps are becoming so popular is that they are
efficient and effective, offering very significant
operating cost savings compared to fossil fuel heaters.

Our design team was the first to incorporate
micro-computer technology into heat pump pool heaters in
1989. With more than 15 years of experience, our AquaComfort
heaters are equipped with the most advanced and most reliable
micro-computer technology in the industry.
Micro-computer technology incorporated
into the AquaComfort pool heaters means the most advanced,
efficient pool heaters available. Our micro-computer controlled
heater is quiet and simple to operate, yet provides state-of-the-art
design and operating capabilities. Water temperature is
precisely controlled and the programmed micro-computer automatically
monitors and adjusts the operation for peak performance
at all temperatures and conditions. The result is the lowest
operating cost to heat your pool water (20-30% lower than
other heat pumps, 60% lower than natural gas heaters and
80% lower than propane).
Unlike most competitive heat pumps
who have only recently incorporated basic digital technology
(some are no more than a simple LED temperature display),
our micro-computer technology is advanced, time tested and
proven in tens of thousands of heat pumps operating in backyards
throughout the United States. Our unique technology allows
us to program our control boards to give you the most effective
and efficient operation through a full range of operating
conditions.
The result is a heat pump that outperforms
the competition by 20-30%. Don’t be fooled by lower priced
options, our micro-computer controlled heat pumps will save
you thousands of dollars during its life expectancy.
Our micro-computer technology gives
AquaComfort heaters the following advantages:
- More heat, lower operating cost
- More performance than the competition
- A true programmed micro-computer
control (not just an LED display)
- Reliability and experience the
competition doesn’t have...with 15+ years of proven
experience and happy pool owners, you can trust our
technology
- Simple and precise operation
- Equipped with built-in service
analyzers to insure problem-free operation
- AquaComfort heats your pool for
1/3 the cost of natural gas and 1/5 the cost of propane
AquaComfort’s micro-computer technology
and exclusive design features guarantees that your AquaComfort
pool heater will be efficient, reliable and economical.
Years of experience insures trouble-free pool heating performance
and satisfaction.

What is Turboguard?
Turboguard is the trade name for the
specially designed heat exchanger used in AquaComfort pool
heaters. The name reflects (2) key aspects of the heat exchanger's
design. "Turbo" reflects the enhanced surface turbo action
of the water and Freon in the heat exchanger and "guard"
reflects the nature of the fusion blended alloy material
used to guard against or prevent corrosion of the heat exchanger.
What is enhanced surface tubing?
Enhanced surface tubing is a twisted
tube as opposed to standard round tube. It has two major
advantages over standard round tube as follows:
- 3-4 times the surface area over
a given length versus standard round tube (more surface
area equals more heat transfer and a more compact design).
More heat transfer equals more efficiency which equals
lower operating costs for the pool owner.
- Turbulating action of the water
as it swirls around the twisted tube (water simply passes
over round tube in a straight line). The turbulating
action of the water increases heat transfer and acts
as a self cleaning mechanism, eliminating scale and
corrosion on the surface of the tube. The net result
is significantly lower operating costs.
What is fusion blended alloy material?
It is a unique blend of metals mixed
in exacting amounts to provide us with a heat exchanger
built to withstand pool water that is out of balance.
What about Titanium?
As a consumer if you absolutely insist
on titanium, we can provide an AquaComfort heat pump equipped
with a titanium heat exchanger (just like the one competitors
use). However before choosing titanium, consider that heaters
with titanium heat exchangers:
- Are less efficient and therefore
more expensive to operate
- Shut off prematurely when the
air temperatures are in the 50's (OK for South Florida,
but a great disadvantage everywhere else in the United
States), resulting in an unheated pool early in the
season when you most want a heated pool.
- Scale up and lose efficiency
as they age, making them even more expensive to operate
- Have heat exchanger housings
that are prone to cracking and breaking in regions of
the United States that experience winter freezing conditions.
Some manufacturers only warrant the titanium tube ,
not the heat exchanger housing.
Turboguard Advantages
- Designed and developed for the
best performance and highest efficiency in the industry
- Enhanced surface tubing design
- Long lasting with a 10 year heat
exchanger warranty to back it up
- Better than titanium...all the
benefits without the negatives associated with titanium
- The next generation of heat exchangers
Please note: We strongly recommend
that you check your water balance weekly and visit your
pool professional regularly. Good water balance is easy
to maintain. Though our Turboguard heat exchanger is designed
to withstand pool water that is out of balance, bad water
chemistry can cause damage to or failure of other equipment
on your pool. Most importantly, poorly maintained pool water
is unhealthy for you, your family and your friends using
your pool.
