Davey AquaTherm PRO Heat Pump

At a Glance

The Davey AquaTherm PRO is Davey's serious pool heat pump range, five sizes from the 11kW DAT110 up to the 27kW DAT270, built for bigger pools and for anyone who wants real season extension rather than a few warm weeks either side of summer. Every model is a full inverter unit with Wi-Fi control and a titanium heat exchanger, and like every heat pump it only works properly with a pool cover fitted.

Ideal for

• Larger in ground pools, and commercial or shared pools
• Anyone who wants app controlled temperature and multiple performance modes rather than one on or off setting
• Pools that already have, or are getting, a pool cover

Why We Like It

The PRO range is where we point anyone heating a bigger pool or wanting to use it outside the short mid summer window. The titanium heat exchanger and inverter compressor are built to run daily rather than for a few weeks a year, and the Wi-Fi control means you are not walking out to a box in the plant room to change the temperature. If you have a small pool and just want to take the chill off for a couple of months, the base AquaTherm is the better buy, you would be paying PRO money for capacity you will not use.

Warranty & Support

25 years on the titanium heat exchanger tube against corrosion, 10 years on the heat exchanger, 10 years on the compressor, 5 years on all other components and 1 year labour. This is a 230V hard wired appliance, so it has to go in on its own circuit through a licensed electrician, not a DIY job. Buy it here and we can arrange a local sparky to connect it. Questions?
