❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does it cost to run the Comfortline 7kW heat pump?
A: Running costs depend on your electricity rate, ambient temperature, and pool size. With an average COP of 9.0, you get 9kW of heating for every 1kW of electricity consumed. This means approximately 66-89% lower costs compared to electric heaters. For a typical 20m³ pool, expect running costs around £15-30 per month during active season, compared to £100+ for electric heating.
Q: Can I install this heat pump myself to save money?
A: No. Professional installation by a qualified technician is mandatory for warranty coverage and safety compliance. The unit requires hard-wired electrical connection, proper water flow management, and precise placement for optimal performance. DIY installation voids all warranties and creates safety hazards.
Q: Will this heat pump work in winter or cold weather?
A: Yes, the Comfortline operates reliably from 0°C to 43°C ambient temperature with automatic defrost. However, efficiency decreases as temperature drops – at 15°C air temp, output is 5.0 kW (COP 6.0), while at 26°C air temp, output increases to 7.0 kW (COP 10.3). For year-round use in very cold climates, consider oversizing the heat pump or using a pool cover to reduce heat loss.
Q: How loud is this heat pump? Will it disturb my neighbors?
A: The Comfortline is exceptionally quiet at an average 42.8 dB(A) – comparable to a refrigerator and about 7 times quieter than traditional pool heaters. At 10 meters distance, sound drops to just 18.8-30.2 dB(A). The dedicated Silence Mode reduces noise by an additional 3 dB(A) for virtually silent night-time operation. Most installations are unnoticeable to neighbors.
Q: Is WiFi control really necessary? How does it work?
A: WiFi control (included as standard on this model) adds significant convenience. You can remotely adjust temperature, switch between Smart and Silence modes, monitor inlet temperature, and check system status from your smartphone. This is particularly useful for starting heating before arriving at your pool, troubleshooting issues, or adjusting settings without going outside. While not essential, most users find it invaluable.
Q: What size pool is this 7kW model suitable for?
A: The AMIR07 is recommended for pools between 15-30 m³ (3,300-6,600 gallons). Hot tubs and small plunge pools (10-15m³) will heat very quickly. Larger pools (25-30m³) are suitable but will experience longer heat-up times. If your pool exceeds 30m³, consider the 9kW (AMIR09) or 13kW (AMIR13) models for better performance.
Q: Do I need to drain the heat pump in winter when not in use?
A: Yes, absolutely. If you’re closing your pool for winter, you must drain all water from the heat exchanger to prevent freeze damage. Even with the auto-defrost function, standing water can freeze when the unit is powered off, potentially cracking the titanium heat exchanger. Use the drain plug on the inlet pipe connection to fully drain the unit, then cover it for winter storage.
Q: Can I use this with a salt water pool or hot tub?
A: Yes! The titanium spiral heat exchanger is specifically designed for salt water compatibility up to 3.5% salinity (35g per litre). Titanium is highly corrosion-resistant, making this heat pump ideal for saltwater chlorination systems. However, maintain proper water chemistry to maximize equipment lifespan.
Q: How long does it take to heat my pool from cold?
A: Heat-up time depends on pool volume, starting temperature, ambient air temperature, and whether you use a pool cover. As a guide, a 20m³ pool heated from 15°C to 28°C (13°C rise) takes approximately 50 hours at 26°C air temp, or 70 hours at 15°C air temp. Using a quality pool cover can reduce these times by 40-60%. See the detailed heat-up time tables above for more scenarios.
Q: What maintenance does the Comfortline heat pump require?
A: Maintenance is minimal. Regularly check that the air inlet and outlet are free from debris and obstructions. Clean the exterior with mild detergent and water – never use solvents or harsh chemicals. Inspect electrical connections and mounting bolts periodically. Have a professional service check refrigerant levels and system performance annually. In winter, drain the unit completely if not in use.
Q: What’s the difference between Smart Mode and Silence Mode?
A: Smart Mode allows the full variable capacity range (20-100%), optimizing for fastest heating and maximum performance. Silence Mode caps maximum capacity at 80%, reducing noise by 3 dB(A) while still maintaining efficient heating. Use Smart Mode during the day for rapid heating, and switch to Silence Mode at night for peaceful operation.
Q: Is the R32 refrigerant safe? What are the environmental benefits?
A: R32 is a modern, eco-friendly refrigerant with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 675 – 68% lower than the older R410A refrigerant (GWP 2,088). It’s also more energy-efficient and has zero ozone depletion potential. R32 is widely adopted across Europe as the responsible choice for heat pump applications. The refrigerant is safely sealed within the system and poses no risk during normal operation.
Q: What warranty is included and what does it cover?
A: The heat exchanger is covered for 5 years (parts only after first 12 months). The compressor and all other components are covered for 2 years (parts only after first 12 months). The casing is covered for 2 years. Warranty requires professional installation and proof of regular maintenance. Labor costs are not included after the first year.
