Pool heat pumps really are efficient: by moving ambient heat instead of generating it, they can be up to five times more efficient than gas or electric heaters. Expect a higher upfront investment, then lower energy and maintenance bills that offset it over a long service life. They are most efficient in air above 7 °C, and modern units such as Solimpeks' Varm Silent Pool keep heating down to −7 °C; a pool cover makes the most of either.

Pool heat pumps are spreading because they deliver up to five times more heat than the electricity they consume, cutting running costs while shrinking emissions. Rising energy prices, sustainability goals and better technology — inverter compressors, Wi-Fi controls, improved cold-weather performance — have turned them into the default choice for homeowners and public pools alike, with lifespans beyond 15 years.

Choosing the right heat pump means matching type, capacity and efficiency class to your building. Air-source units are the most affordable to install and now run down to -30 °C; ground-source delivers the lowest running costs; hybrids switch fuels intelligently. Size from a proper heat load calculation — selection tools make this fast — and read COP and SEER ratings before you buy.

Solimpeks heat pumps in the Varm Up, Varm Boost and Varm Silent Pool ranges carry a built-in Wi-Fi module and connect to the Smart Life app for temperature setting, timers, mode changes and live parameters. Behind the app sits Solimpeks' IoT customer-management platform, which monitors technical data in real time, plans periodic maintenance and flags faults before they become failures.

A domestic-hot-water heat pump delivers the same hot water as an electric water heater for roughly a third of the electricity. The Solimpeks Solido Series pairs an air-source heat pump with an integrated 200 L or 300 L enamel-coated tank, reaches 65 °C in heat-pump mode (75 °C with the 2 kW backup heater), and runs on a standard single-phase household supply at a rated 900 W.
