AVERAGECLIMATE
The average climate of the area where the pool is located significantly impacts the type and size of heat pump needed. Colder climates demand more powerful heaters to maintain comfortable water temperatures.
Pools in full sun require a smaller heater, while those in full or partial shade may need a larger unit to compensate for the reduced natural heating.

Regular use of a pool cover reduces heat loss, allowing for a smaller heat pump to maintain the desired temperature. They dramatically improve efficiencies.
Pools in windy areas experience higher heat loss, so they may require larger units to counteract the effects of the wind.
The intended use of the pool affects the heating solution required. Pools for ‘extended summer’ will have different heating needs compared to those used ‘all year round’.
