🔥 Dantherm HPP15R 15kW Single-Phase Swimming Pool Heat Pump | Extend Your Season with Powerful, Whisper-Quiet Heating
💧 Transform Your Pool Into a Year-Round Oasis
Picture this: It’s early April or late September, and while your neighbours’ pools sit cold and unused, you’re enjoying perfectly heated water at 28°C. The Dantherm HPP15R 15kW Heat Pump makes this dream a reality, delivering powerful, energy-efficient heating that extends your swimming season by months—not days.
Engineered through collaboration between Calorex and the Dantherm Group, this single-phase powerhouse combines cutting-edge heat pump technology with whisper-quiet operation, elegant design, and bulletproof reliability. Whether you’re heating a larger residential pool or a compact commercial installation, the HPP15R delivers consistent warmth without the eye-watering energy bills of traditional electric heaters.
🌟 Why Smart Pool Owners Choose the Dantherm HPP15R
⚡ Serious Heating Power That Won’t Break the Bank
With 15kW of heating capacity, the HPP15R produces up to 5 times more energy than it consumes. While a traditional 15kW electric heater guzzles 15kW of electricity continuously, the HPP15R achieves the same heating output using just 5.94kW—that’s a COP (Coefficient of Performance) of approximately 2.6.
What This Means for You:
- 💰 Save up to 60% on heating costs compared to electric heaters
- 🌍 Reduce your carbon footprint dramatically
- 📊 Heat a 40-60m³ pool (10m x 4m x 1.5m average depth) efficiently
- ⏱️ Extend your swimming season by 3-4 months every year
🤫 Whisper-Quiet Operation: Enjoy Peace & Tranquility
At just 30 decibels at 10 metres—quieter than a whispered conversation—the HPP15R won’t disturb your poolside relaxation or annoy neighbours. No more choosing between a warm pool and peaceful evenings!

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does it take to heat my pool?
A: For a typical 50m³ pool, expect a temperature rise of 1-2°C per day depending on starting temperature, ambient conditions, and pool cover use. Initial heating from 15°C to 28°C typically takes 5-7 days.
Q: Can the HPP15R cool my pool in summer?
A: No, the HPP15R is a heating-only model. For heating and cooling functionality, consider the HPP-i inverter range.
Q: Will it work in winter?
A: The HPP15R operates effectively in air temperatures down to 3°C. Below this temperature, performance decreases significantly. For year-round operation in colder climates, consider an inverter model rated to -5°C or lower.
Q: What size pool can this heat pump handle?
A: Optimal performance for pools between 40-70m³ depending on insulation, cover usage, and desired temperature. For accurate sizing, contact our technical team.
Q: How much does it cost to run?
A: Approximately £1,650 per year for a 50m³ pool (8 hours/day, 6-month season at £0.28/kWh). This is 60% less than a traditional electric heater.
Q: Is professional installation required?
A: While experienced DIYers can install the unit, we strongly recommend professional installation to ensure optimal performance, warranty validity, and electrical safety compliance.
Q: What warranty is included?
A: 3 years limited parts warranty, with the first year including labour coverage (UK only). Extended warranties available.
