Whoever thought doing something good for the environment would also save you money? It's true! A Rheem heat pump is built with the latest eco-friendly R410A refrigerant. But the most amazing aspect of a heat pump pool heater is its operating efficiency compared to gas heaters. A heat purnp operates at 5 to 6 times the efficiency of a standard gas, oil or electric pool heater. If you live in an area where your natural or propane gas costs have outpaced your electricity costs, the savings can be big, The chart below illustrates just how much money can be saved using average energy cost data.

Spiral "Rifled" Titanium Tube Deaf Exchanger And they said it couldn't be done... Titanium has gained world recognition ^ +about every industry for its "nearly unbreakable" qualities. the past, titaniums rigidity made it nearly impossible to use in an ultra -efficient heat exchanger design. The spiral rifled tube increases the surface area where super -heated gases can transfer heat efficiently to water. A titanium tube heat exchanger provides a truly efficient waterway that withstands the abuses of harsh pool chemistry and corrosion. The spiral "rifled" exchanger also helps reduce de- posit build-up, and increases efficiency by performing a "scoop -and -lift" action. While neither Tita- nium nor rifling is new to the heat pump industry, leave it to Rheem to bring the best of both worlds together to maximize your backyard investment! ropeland ScrollTM Compressor operation The Copeland Scroll compressor in your Rheem heat pump is the same workhorse that is used Rheem air conditioners all around the world! The simple design of the Copeland Scroll compressor builds in reliability and allows it to operate at lower sound and vibration levels than reciprocating compressors. In fact, tests have shown that Scroll compressors are up to three times quieter than reciprocating models. Durability is based on a very robust design and contains only a few moving parts. Because the Copeland Scroll compressor starts unloaded, strain on the motor is consid- erably reduced. During rough operating conditions, spiral components within the unit reposition themselves to protect the compressor from damage. Millions of air conditioners can't be wrong... the performance of a Copeland Scroll compressor gets better with time: it "wears in," not out. typak heat pumps are ng motor is matched i extended motor life. sound possible while Extend Your Swim Season in Comfort... _ 22 23 ..:'..... 2n 20 a s 1 2 a n s n T ro 2n _ _ 3 _. !_ 7 A Rheem heat pump can turn your backyard pool investment into resort -style living al- 1, , In 11 2fi 27 U !) 111 Il 12 11 1.1 ',1T 1n 15 In 17 Ill 19 211 21 most year round.

Rheem heat pumps give you the flexibility of warming your pool water in the 2n months before and after your normal swim season. Your backyard evening events area �Js rarely slowed down by cool weather when you have a Rheem heat pump on duty. ..., How does a heat pump work? And skip the black magic part... Rheem air -source heat pump pool heaters work much like a refrigerator in reverse. The heat pump extracts the heat from the warm air, intensifies the heat with a compressor, delivers the heat to the water, and exhausts the cooler air out the top of the unit. Because it uses the warm ambient air temperature to do the work, it is a very efficient way to heat water. One of the biggest rnis- conceptions about a heat purnp's operation is what happens to the energy used to run the heat pump. For the most part, this en- ergy does not go into the water. The electricity powering the unit operates the compressor and fan, along with the other controls and electronics. The electrical input energy if converted to btu's only amounts to roughly 14,000btu. The bulk of the btu output comes from the heat energy extracted from the air. That's why they operate so efficiently and the energy savings are so significant. What is C.O.R. and what does it mean to me, in simple terms? C.O.P. stands for Coefficient Of Performance. It's the way efficiency is measured for heat pump pool heaters. Believe it or not, it's a very simple calculation, BTU Output _ BTU Input = C.O.P. Below is an example of the C.O.P. calculation for the Rheem model 5350ti: Output = 92,OOObtu _ 92,000 = 6.0 C.O.P. Input = 4.49kW=15,331 btu 14,106 So based on the calculation above, a Rheem heat pump delivers efficiencies in excess of 600%! The highest efficiency a gas pool heater can possibly obtain is 99%. The mystery is solved! We thought you would never ask! Rheem is a proud member of AHRI, Our heat pump pool heaters are third party tested and cer- tified under the AHRI 1160 standard. All performance numbers are listed on the AHRI website directory. The units are tested at a high ambient temperature condition and a low ambient temperature condition. Furthermore, most Rheem units meet or exceed the Florida 4.0 minimum C.O.P. requirement and are listed with the California Energy Commission. Unfortunately, not all man- ufacturers belong to AHRI and their published test data is questionable at best. When shopping for a pool heat pump, look for the AHRI Certified logo. This ensures that you are getting what you pay for, without the smoke and mirrors. Rheem heat pumps are also safety tested and certified by Intertek, another third party testing agency. This ensures that all components and electrical design meet or exceed the latest UL-1995 standard.

Just the right heat pump for climates that have cooler -than -comfortable temperatures, also have extremely hot summer months. With a Rheern Heat -Cool heat pump, your water temperature will always be comfortable. Just ast house- holds around the world have trusted us to heat their water during the colder months, Rheem will have you relaxing in your pool during the hot days of summer with cool, refreshing, chilled pool water. Having the ability to pull out the extra degrees Mother Nature puts in will make your pool the envy of the neighborhood. No matter what tirne of year, a Rheem Heat -Cool will have you swimming when others won't venture outside. RhPPm Heat -Cool units have a unioue reversina valve which enables the heat pump ! only to take the chill out of the water, but also to put it back in. Cooling your pool water during the iot summer months! Normally, a heat pump will gather heat energy from the air with its evaporator coil. Using refrigerant and several other components, the heat is transferred over to your pool water. By reversing this process, the heat pump can actually take heat out of the water, transfer it to the Freon, and run it through the evaporator coil. The coil dissipates the heat into the air, much like a car's radiator. This is also the method of defrost for the heat -cool model. In cold am- bient conditions, a heat pump will ice -up when the ambient air drops below 45 degrees. With a heat -cool unit, the ice will melt off in a matter of minutes when in defrost mode. Standard heat ournps rely on the ambient air being drawn across the coil, which could take hours to defrost, de- Iding on the air temperature. Models: 1V16350t1-HC, Mi3350ti-IiC There are some climates that can challenge a heat pump's performance. Areas that are subject to lower ambient temperatures have a tendency to cause ice to build up on a heat pump's condensing coil. This ice could damage a heat pump's internal compo- nents while starving the unit of the air flow it needs to work properly. To combat this, most manufacturers build their heat pumps with a "Defrost Mode." What most manu- facturers don't tell you is that their Units cannot heat your pool water while defrosting the coil! With a Rheem Power Defrost heat pump, you can have your cake and eat it, too! How i; this possible? ...simple! The more time your heat pump can spend heating the water, quicker you will achieve your desired swim temperature. While heating your pool, if the F Power Defrost Heat Pump senses damaging ice buildup, the Power Defrost feature redirects a small amount of the hot refrigerant gas back through the Condensing Coil. This removes any ice that may be forming on the coil without stopping the heating process! This means that a Rheem Power Defrost heat pump gives you the freedom to continue to heat your pool water even when the unit is defrosting itself. So while your neighbor's "other brand" of heat pump has stopped heating the water and is still trying to "break the ice," you and your family will be swimming!
