Balboa Water Group Heat Pump Clim8zone 73001

The Balboa Clim8zone heat pump represents the most energy-efficient and cost-effective way to both heat and cool the water in a hot tub, pool or swim spa. It works with the BP control system, which can be configured to use the Clim8zone heat pump alone, the traditional electric heater alone, cooling, or both simultaneously as required. It is also suitable for pools with a water volume of up to 15 m³.

Functions and features

• Very quiet operation – less than 50 dBA
• Accelerated heating and cooling
• Operates even at low air temperatures
• Built-in computer adjusts the compressor frequency using an artificial intelligence algorithm based on ambient air temperature, water temperature and other factors
• Automatically switches back to heating mode when the temperature drops

Operating modes (heating and cooling)

• Auto Smart Mode
• Manual high mode – highest heating output and fastest heating, lower COP, high compressor frequency
• Manual low mode – slowest and lowest heating output, high COP, low compressor frequency
