Commercial Swimming Pool Cleaner

Posted by steve, in New Products

automatic commercial swimming pool cleaner
Automatic cleaners for commercial swimming pools have in the past been out of some company’s price range. With new swimming pool products being introduced all the time and improvements being made, the cost of an automatic swimming pool cleaner has come down dramatically over the past few years. One of the main issues regarding the automatic swimming pool cleaners is whether the costs can be justified, we would suggest that an onsite demonstration is the only way to show you how much time and money you can actually save and how great your swimming pool can actually look.

H2ofun are delighted to annonce that we have now added the The Relax Commercial Pool Cleaner from Plastica to our range of commercial Swimming Pool Cleaners. This cleaner is new to the market this year and offers you a high quality, heavy duty Commercial Swimming Pool Cleaner at a low price.

The automatic swimming pool cleaner is easy to operate and can automatically clean your pool overnight! Saving time, energy and reducing your operating costs.

The Automatic Pool Cleaners come in different ranges and can cope with all sizes of commercial swimming pools from 20m pools upto 50m swimming pools.

If you are interested in taking a closer look at this great pool cleaner then please do not hesitate to contact us where we would be happy to visit your premises and provide an on site demo.

Attached pdf has full details on the Automatic Commercial Swimming Pool Cleaner

Heat Pumps: Heat Your Pool and Conserve Energy

Posted by rob, in Heat Pumps, Heaters

A heat pump works by moving heat energy from one place to another. Typically, heat may be extracted from the air, the ground (soil or bedrock) or water and delivered to where it is needed. Swimming pool heat pumps efficiently extract heat energy from the air by cooling the air over finned heat exchangers, extracting heat into the evaporator of the heat pump.

Heat pumps are enormously efficient, typically consuming around 1kW of electrical energy in order to produce 5kW of heat energy. They make use of energy that would otherwise simply be dissipated and wasted hence they result in far less pollution and lower fuel costs.

Although the initial outlay on a heat pump based pool heating system may be more than another form of pool heating system the ongoing running costs and energy costs are lower so the initial outlay may be quickly recouped. What’s more, they are very easy to install and ongoing maintenance requirements are minimal.

If you are lucky enought to already have a pool and you are considering a new heating system, or if you are thinking of buying a pool, then take a look at the swimming pool heat pump systems that we have on offer. We can provide you with information and advice on the use of these systems and competetive quotations for supply and installation.
