Why is it called a FPH?

It's because we like to make things as simple as we can.

The product was developed for
Free Pool Heating
.

So we called it a "FPH".

And then we moved on ....
to work on more cool new heat
recovery products, instead of
wasting time debating product
names.

Simple.

According to data from the
US Department of Energy
it costs up to $1800 per
year to heat a pool
with a high efficiency
heat pump.

With a HotSpot FPH
it doesn't have to
cost anything.

 



The FPH pool heater is essentially a geothermal water-source upgrade for a standard air source air conditioner. This allows the air conditioner to use less electricity, increases cooling capacity, and makes the AC very quiet because the outdoor fan unit does not need to run. All of the heat goes directly into the pool.

A 4-ton air conditioner running 12 hours per day can produce over 600,000 BTU per day, equal to about 12 large solar pool panels, more than enough to heat a full size pool.

An FPH pool heater can connect to multiple AC units if desired. FPH is available through your local HotSpot dealer or if there is no dealer in your area, directly from HotSpot. Systems are available as a pre-configured kit ready for your licensed installer or HotSpot can arrange for your complete installation.


Constructed with Titanium, the FPH heat exchanger can stand up to years of harsh swimming pool chemicals.

Comparison to a Solar Pool Heater

People often compare our pool heater to solar pool heating.

Both are green, earth friendly ways to save money. Of course, the FPH pool heater saves more money than solar pool heating because of the electrical cost savings on the AC.
And, it works even when there's no sun.

But if you really think about it, the
heat that comes from the AC, comes from inside the building. How did
the heat get there in the first place?

Consider that a building is actually
a giant solar collector, sitting in the sun and collecting heat. That's why we run air conditioners in the summer, to take the solar heat from the inside and put it outside.

In the final analysis, the HotSpot pool heater is taking solar energy from inside the building and putting it in the pool.

So from that perspective, the FPH is a solar pool heater. For sure, it's a different kind of solar pool heater, but it is in fact heating the pool for free with solar energy.
