Thank you for your help in selecting a heat pump for our pool.
We live in the cascade foothills and our source for heating the
pool prior to the heat pump was a propane heater.
Our propane bills went from $1,000 per month in the winter
before we built the pool to $5,000 per month after we installed
the pool.
To be sure it is a nice pool – It won an award as the best new
residential concrete pool in the state of Washington for 2008 by
the concrete industry. However I felt that $4,000 was too much
to heat a swimming pool. That is when I called you. After
getting the dimensions of our pool it is 22ft by 44ft you
recommended the Jandy AE 3000 TR heat pump at a delivered cost
of just about one month’s propane bill. I installed the heat
pump this winter and I set it to 87 degrees I lowered the
propane temp to 82 degrees.
I found that the heat pump worked great whenever the outside
temp was over 50 and that even in the coldest Washington weather
the propane almost never came on. What that equated to is our
propane bill went from $5,000 to $1,000 and our power bill went
from $800 to $1,000. That is a monthly savings of $3,800 every
month and We only paid a little over $4,000 for the heat pump.
Thanks again for all of your help and support.

Guy purchases his heat pump from us in 2005. This is the
original email that we received from him:
Good morning Marcus,
I received the heat pump yesterday, everything is fine, I'm going to store
it in my garage for the winter and then install it in the
spring. I'll keep you posted on how that goes and maybe send
some pictures as well. Again I thank you very much for all your
help with my order from the selection of the unit to the
delivery. If anyone is looking for a heat pump I'll be sure to
send them your way. This was the first major purchase I made
over the internet from the United States and between my customs
brokers and you the transaction and delivery went flawlessly.

On June 2008, we received another email from him with some
pictures and an update:
Hello Marcus, I purchased my heat pump from you a few year ago
and finally got some pictures taken of the pool. I thought I
would send some. We're starting our third season with the pool
and the heater is worth every cent. I started the heat pump and
within 48 hours the water went from the low 60s to 84 degrees,
something my pool guy told me it would take 3 to 4 days. Anyway
just thought I would update you and tell you how pleased we are
with your products and service.

Hi Jason:
I wanted to let you know I have received the Heat Siphon and had
it professionally installed last week. My main hesitation prior
to ordering was the noise it may cause. My experience with
house heat pumps was that they seemed excessively noisy. As you
explained by phone, the Heat Siphon is relatively quiet with the
Scroll compressor. I may not have to put in any hedges or other
sound dampening measures as I had anticipated. My neighbors
have indicated the noise does not bother them either, so all
went according to plan.
The pump works just as I had imagined. I have a 18X36 sized
pool I keep it covered with a solar cover. Air Temperature when
I started up was 60 F and the Pool temp was 66 F at 9 pm on
Tuesday. By 9 pm Wed, the pool was 75 F and air temp was 60 F.
By Thursday morning at 7 am the pool was 79 F .....and by that
evening I was looking at 82 F. Over the week-end I only had to
run it only once by the day to maintain the temperature in the
low 80s ( weather has gotten much better). It hasn't been below
80 F for over a week which is the first time in 13 years. We
have been using the pool more in the last week than all of the
last 2 years.
Thanks again for all your help
Peter

Hi Marcus,
My SX5.0 is installed and keeping the pool at 87 degrees, I lose
about 4 degrees overnight with the cover on but after less than 2
hours running, I’m back to 87 again. I haven’t gotten my electric
bill yet but I think it will be reasonable.
The installation went very easily, I did have an electrician friend
help with the electrical work though.
I am very happy with my experience buying from you. Even though
everything was done by internet or phone, I am really reminded of
the way it used to be buying things from my small town business
friends years ago. I felt that you were truly interested in seeing
that I had a good experience and would do what was necessary to make
my experience a pleasant one. Everything went exactly as planned,
thank you and keep up the good work.
I’ve attached several pictures, one with Oliver, our King Charles
Spaniel, checking out the installation and a shot of the pool area
decorated for Christmas.
Thanks for making this a pleasant and lowest cost experience.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
Jim

Marcus,
The Rheem 8300 TIPD is now installed and running. Thank you for
your
valuable information and experience which helped me choose the
right heat
pump. I will attach a few photos for you to post on your site.
The installation is in La Quinta, CA near Palm Springs. In 60
degree
weather with 45% humidity the heater was raising my 55 degree
pool water by
two degrees per hour and on a separate test with the same
weather
conditions my spa water was raised by 18 degrees per hour. I am
very
pleased with the performance and look forward to not having
those high
propane bills!

Hello Jason,
Thanks for all the help I received from you and Mr. Miller in my
purchase of a Heat Siphon SX5.0 heat pump. The quality of your
service was exceptional. Also, I could not be more pleased with the
performance of the unit. I received it in November, hooked up the
piping then, but I did not get around to doing the electrical
hook-up until last weekend. Nothing was very difficult, and my
electrical work needed only a minor adjustment to pass inspection -
not too bad for an accountant. All materials, piping and
electrical, were under $300. I turned the unit on at 4 PM Saturday
with pool water at 68 degrees and no cover. Sunday morning the
water was 76 degrees. Monday morning it was 88 degrees. I thought
I'd see if it would go to 100 just for the heck of it, but when my
wife thoughtfully suggested this might not be good for the pool
plaster, I shut it down at noon on Tuesday pushing 96 degrees. I
have no doubt it would have gone to 100. It's amazing, and I love
it. This is a new toy I'm really going to enjoy. Thanks again.

Thanks Jason,
Based on the numbers other companies advertise on their web sites,
it appears 6.0 kilowatts is about correct for this size heater. I
have been keeping the pool at 90 degrees! - what my daughter and
grand children like. With a cover that I did decide to buy last
weekend, I only have to run the heater for three to four hours a day
in this weather, overcast days in the high sixties to low eighties
and nights mid forties to mid sixties. I run the pool pump from 11
am to 7 pm. The heater runs from 11 am until 2 or 3 pm and doesn't
come on again until the next day. Maybe $3 to $4 a day at 12
cents/kilowatt plus taxes? We'll see when I get the electric bill.
When the sun comes out to stay and the air begins to hang around 80
more consistently, I'll start backing off on the temperature. I
don't think the heater will be running much at all. Of course, by
May it will be off until late September. I couldn't be more pleased
and impressed.

Hi Marcus:
Here are a couple pictures of the Rheem heat pump we bought last
spring. It's in a novel application as a heat-recovery machine
in a solar greenhouse. The 3000 square foot greenhouse has no
other heat source, even though it often gets below zero here in
the mountains of New York. The heat pump takes heat out of the
indoor air during the day and stores it in a 5000 gallon tank,
where it is used for night-time heating via pipes cast into the
concrete floor. During the summer the heat is used to make hot
water for a nearby hotel. A side benefit is free cooling of the
greenhouse, reducing the amount of ventilation we need.
I mounted the heat pump on an overhead rack to keep it above
head level, and to get the warm air from the top of the
greenhouse. It's visible on the upper right in the second
picture.

Marc,
It has been a few months since we installed the heater. The
installation went very smoothly. The old heater was an ... (name
withheold but we don't stock that product)
and latest 15 years. It never functioned as well or as economically
as the sx 5.0 heat siphon. The first time we turned it on the water
temp. was 78 degrees and it brought the temperature up to 90 degrees
in approximately 4 hours. Amazing.
The electrical hookup was a snap. The plumbing was much simpler than
the old one.
I want to thank you for your help in determining the correct heater
for us and the quick, on time delivery.
Attached are three photos. Two showing the installed heater and one

Thomas bought
his Heat Siphon for his villa in Cypress last march 2006. This month
we received this great testimonial letter from him...
Marcus,
You
must have steadfast determination to embark on a project like this
when you own a holiday villa in North Cyprus, but the result is
spectacular year round swimming over the Mediterranean Sea! (see
photo). We ordered the single phase 50 Hz Heat Siphon SX 5.0 with
scroll compressor on March 14 and arranged for air freight to
Larnaca airport via AIT worldwide logistics. After some UK flight
routing problems, the unit arrived at Larnaca on March 20, but
required a further week before completion of customs clearance
formalities. On March 27 I had made arrangements for collection at
the dock, but the local freight forwarding company had inadvertently
dispatched the unit on a delivery truck with the wrong address.
Driving around the island with mobile phone soon wrangled the truck
down in a local retail park to transfer the unit onto my truck.
Driving across the Turkish controlled border proved to be very
interesting as they took a decision on how much duty to charge me.
After considerable debate and discussion with head office, they
eventually waved me through without paying any duty (which was
wonderful as I had already paid European Union duty at South Cyprus
customs!). Arriving to the villa I was fortunate to have some
neighbors come across to help me move the Heat Siphon onto the
concrete foundation. Beyond that, it was a simple matter of running
underground electrics, making plumbing connections (although
drilling through reinforced concrete required some rather serious
air drill equipment!), and commissioning the unit. Within 72 hours
we had the pool up to a very cozy 82 F and all the children in the
estate were laughing and having a great time. It was a joy to see
the dream come true – the first heat pump in North Cyprus!
While the logistics of air freighting a heat pump all the way from
America to a remote region such as North Cyprus can be tedious and
difficult, I must praise Marcus and the AIT team for their follow-up
and support. I really want to thank Marcus for including some
critical PVC fittings to help complete the installation, for if he
hadn’t, I doubt I would have found them on the island. I priced
heat pumps in Europe before contacting Poolheatpumps.com and found
that even with shipping and customs costs, I was saving money by
doing business with Marcus.

Jessie and Marc,
We live about 1500 feet from the Newaukum River in Lewis
County. When we were installing our heat pump last month,
we thought it would be prudent to elevate the heater a bit
because we have had some flooding before (10 years ago), so
we built a concrete pad that was about 18 inches higher than
native ground…I think you might guess where this is going.
Tuesday morning when we got up the river was roaring
through the backyard and the heat pump was above water with
about 8 inches to spare. We haven’t given up on this
swimming season yet, so the heater was running the whole
time and we went swimming a few hours after this picture was
taken. It was 50 degrees outside and raining - water raging
all around - but the pool was a calm and balmy 85.

Looks kind of rough, but there will be a retaining wall across

Marcus and future customers,
It was a lot more work then I thought having to run 130 feet of
wire and about 15 feet of plumbing but it was well worth the the
time. The heat pump is even better then I thought it would be. I
purchased a unit that was larger then needed for my pool but it runs
less and heats it up faster. Marcus was so much help in deciding
what unit and brand would be good for me. He NEVER failed to answer
a question or email and all he advice was sound without the pressure
or sales pitch you get from so many other companies. I can not say
enough about his company or Marcus himself. Here are the Pictures
of the final product.....
Thank You

So far so good, I'd say. Installation was a piece of cake. Thanks

heat pump deliveries he as made coming from your company in the last
couple of years since he started his job. I was surprise to have the

one day for the installation and two days later the water
temperature was at 86 degrees. The whole family was enjoying the
pool in late May (Outside temp 72 degrees).

Trust you and yours are well. Here are some pix of the final
installation of the Heat Siphon. The truck driver and I horsed the
pallet truck through the yard and placed the pump right next to the
pad. I did the plumbing the day after the electrician ran the 220
feed. It took only five hours to raise the temp from 78 to 84; quite
impressive. We are both more than happy with the Heat Siphon and
recommend it without exception.
Feel free to use the photos and any emails on your website. It's

By the way, the truck driver was delivering two other heat pumps
from you in the same area on the day he delivered ours. Small

Hey Marcus,
Just wanted to say I got the pool heater on Tuesday, did the
plumbing on Wednesday, re-did part of it on Thursday, and had an
electrician wire it up tonight. At first start-up the fan blades
were catching the cowling/housing and it was shutting it off. So I
took off the top cover, wiggled the housing around a bit and put it
back on. Seems to be centered properly now and is up and running.
Temp was 64 when I started it at 8:30pm. Waiting to see how quick
it warms it up.
Here are a few pictures of the pool pump installation process. Feel
free to put them on your site if you feel they would be of use.
I wonder how many people actually have 24'' of clearance around the
units. I sure don't. Pool is up to 80 degrees right now. Not bad,
65 degrees to 80 degrees in a day and a half.
I do have one question though. Where the 2 inch PVC pipe screws
onto to the unit itself, I have a small leak there, a drop every 10
seconds or so. So I re-did the line to it and tightened the heck
out of the threaded part and still have a bit of drip. Do you know
if people normally use plumbers tape on those threads or if you
think that would help?
Thanks,
TIM

Dear Tim:
Thank you for writing back. I hope that you and your family are
well. I am happy that you have it all working. The fan must have
shifted in shipping. Those unions shouldn't need Teflon tape. The
seal is at the o-ring gasket. It couldn't hurt to try the tape or
maybe warm the o-ring and reinstall it. They have o-ring lube at
pool stores that help when the union is tightened to. The heater
makes a lot of condensation when it takes the heat out of the air
and sometimes some water drips from
the water lines. If you find that nothing you do helps then let me
know and I will send you some new unions.
Please let me know if you have other questions or
if you want me to call you.

Also , I am enclosing pictures of my pool and the new Jandy system I
installed myself in about 3 hours, This system is so simple to
install , a
child could do it! 3 power wires in (220 volt single Ph and the rest
is
all plug in and only fits one way! GREAT! The automated Chlorine
system
was just as easy, maybe easier (because it's smaller!)
Your company is Great and I know you will always be a pleasure to

[Previous emails]
Received everything on tues and
installed all. everything works fine ,
but how do you install the remote panel. I assumed that you just
connect to the phone plug in the heater, but when I did nothing
happened on the remote.
The manual does not say anything about that remote panel. not even
out
to connect it. I'm sure that it must be programmed on the panel on
the
heater, but the manual does not tell me anything. A little help
would be great!
Thanks again.
Tom
Dear Mr. Miller:
It is good to hear back from you. I hope that you and your family
are
well.
When you plug one end of the phone wire into the heater and the
other
end into the panel the panel will come on. I have never had one not
come on. Try another phone wire. If that doesn't work I will send
you another panel.
I am happy that the heater is working now.

I
hope I've given you some sort of an idea about the capabilities of
the Kopec 650 SCTI. I, also, have enclosed some pix of the
installation. Hope you enjoy them!
Feel free to use them wherever you want.

Marc,
Sorry it took so long to re-send these pics to you of my first
installation. I didn't snap pics of the second install before I
left Myrtle Beach but I'll be back in early June and get some at
that time.
As
far as I know, things are working well....no complaints is usually
good news...thanks again for all your help...I feel like I am a
"heater installer" now. The second unit only took less than a day
(counting the extra trip to Lowes)
cheers

Dear Marcus,
We apologize for not sending pictures and a
e-mail sooner, but life has been busy and hectic on the Main
front!
We absolutely love the Heat Syphon, the pool
water went from 56 degrees to 92 degrees in less than 3 days. Our
pool is 16 x 34, with an 8 ft. diving well. To say the least, the
Heat Syphon is phenomenal!!! It is so nice and relaxing to swim
in the warm water, which we never could have done that early last
year.
We did have an electrician do the electrical
work and Bruce installed the PVC plumbing himself, with only a
tiny leak on the first try. Second try was a winner!!
We were up and running with everything the
first week of May and would have liked to have had the pool opened
earlier, but like I stated things were just hectic.
We really enjoyed doing business with you and
receiving prompt answers to all of our questions. We look forward
to many years of nice warm swimming!
Take care.
Two happy customers in Westminster, MD!

Marcus............my pool heater has been up and running for 3 weeks
or so now and is doing great. I am using the pool cover which
helps hold the heat in tremendously. Thanks for all your help.
It really seems to heat the pool quickly. I have attached a couple
of pictures of the installation.
Best regards..........Tom

Marcus,
I wanted to take a
second and drop you a quick email about my recent pool heater
experience purchasing the Kopec 525s from you. Please feel free to
share this with anyone that would like a recommendation. I have to
say I was a bit nervous about such a large purchase from a
website. I really appreciate your low pressure, fast responses
during the decision making process that lasted for over two months
(my fault not yours). Although your heater was by far less
expensive than anywhere I could find, I would gladly have paid
what the local folks were charging for the experience I had
working with your company.
I picked up the
heater at the trucking terminal, and really appreciated you
getting it out the door so fast. It arrived without a hitch on
Friday. Saturday morning I poured concrete and by the afternoon
the unit was sitting on the pad. I completed the PVC work in about
an hour, it was my first time so there was an educational process.
The hardest part was running the wires from the breaker to the
back yard. I have an Electrician friend, and that worked out
great, otherwise I recommend having someone else do it.
I cut out the
solar blanket to fit the pool, and fired the heater up at about
6:30 that night. The pools was sitting at 60 degrees when I
started, and by Sunday night around 7 PM, we were at 88 degrees. I
keep the pool at 88 degrees and the heater does not run as much as
I thought it would.
I am very please
with this experience, and would welcome any questions from people
in Phoenix considering using your company.
Thank you again
for your support and for the wonderful heater, my kids think you
are great! I attached a few emails of the project.
Best Regards,
Brad

Marcus,
This is a very short story....
February 9, about 7:30pm, I ordered my Jandy AE2500 from your
company. You notified me it shipped the morning of February 10,
Thursday. About 5:00pm Friday, I got a call from a trucker stating
he wanted to deliver my heat pump; he got here about 5:20pm and put
the heavy thing right
next to the new equipment pad I was still installing after removing
my old heater. I was able to complete the pad and plumbing on
Saturday, finished the electrical work on Sunday, tested the heater
and turned it on (water temp about 70). This morning my wife and I
swam laps in 86 degree water (Happy Valentine's day!).
So, it took about 100 HOURS to order, deliver, install and operate
my new heater.
This week in Tampa will be sunny and the mid 70's, so we'll use the
pool
a lot!
Thank you.

My experience in
California in Jan and Feb
I was very skeptical when I forked out $4,000.00 to
pay for the top of the line Jandy heat pump for my
pool. I decided to go a little bigger than required.
I was told by everyone and anyone in Merced CA, that
"Those heat pump things don't work around here."
Marcus repeatedly assured me that they didn't know
what they were talking about, and that it would work
fine. I was worried. The heater arrived FAST. Nice
Fedex semi pulled up front with a hydraulic lift,
wheeled it right to my garage. I contacted my local
pool company and they agreed to install it for $600
as long as I knew "It wouldn't work this time of
year." I said I knew this, but that I wanted to get a
jump on Summer. The install was a deal as far as I'm
concerned. They put in a separate sub-panel from my
breaker box, 2 different valves...etc... a bunch of
stuff for the money. I'm just glad I didn't The guy
knew exactly what he was doing even though he hadn't
installed a Jandy before. I fired it up Tuesday
morning and the pool was 46 degrees (COLD) and outside
temp was 50 degrees. 72 hours later the pool was 74
degrees. With average daily air temps of 55 degrees,
I keep the pool covered all but the hour that I swim
each day. I have found that I only have to run the
heater 5 hours (6 max ) a day to keep it between 72
and 74 as long as it is covered. Now that the pool is
above 70, the heat coming out of the jets is VERY
warm. In fact, I was surprised at the volume of
water that this heat pump can crank out each minute.I
was also surprised at the warmth at which it comes
out. I purchased the hot gas exchange option for a
little extra for those days below 45 degrees, and
although I don't even think I have had to use this
option yet, I'm planning on using it next January. In
the mean time, I am extremely pleased. I am now using
my pool all 12 months of the year. It is cool to step
out of the water at 9 at night and see the steam rise
off of your body into the 45 degree air. Again, I
thought that these heat pumps were too good sounding
to be true, but let me tell you, technology has come a
long way, and their efficiency is staggering. I feel
sorry for people with solar and gas. In may when the
air warms up a bit, I plan on bumping my pool up to 90
degrees for parties on the weekends. I don't feel
like spending that kind of money now. One very
interesting note. The technician that installed the
pump after completing the installation said "yeah, I
think these things are the way to go, I might look
into one of them for my pool." Haaa Haaa
PS, feel free to use me as a reference.

Happy holidays Marcus,
I received an
installed the heat pump and I have an 82 degree swimming pool now.
When I started up the unit this morning in overcast skies at 56
degrees, the pool temp was 67 at 9 am, by 2 pm the pool temp was 81,
still with overcast skies and 66 degrees. The heat pump used 40
KWH (meter readings) during this test. I have attached a picture
that you may use as desired. If you would like me to uplink a good
reference to you website I can do that.
Thank you,

Dear Marcus,
We are now home to a cold, wet &windy U.K., wishing we were back in warm
& sunny Florida!
Just a line to let you know how pleased we are with our pool heater, the
Heat pump was delivered without any problem, at least once
we'd sorted out the problem with our phone, it was! It was all up &
running in no time, & the water heated up very quickly. The unit looks
smart, & is quite quiet compared to the one fitted to our next door
neighbor’s home. It was lovely & warm to swim in, in fact we had to
lower the temperature a little!
Thank you for all your help & advice with our purchase. Nothing was too
much trouble & you were always so speedy in replying. We shan't hesitate
