The most energy efficient and silent heat pump for your hot tub
A simple and flexible way to heat or cool your tub very energy efficiently. The Balboa Clim8zone heat pumps can be placed alongside your tub, operating at less than 48 dB(A). The Clim8zone heat pumps have a high energy efficiency (COP) of 5 to 10 times that of a traditional, electric spa heater and can reach up to 15 times under certain operating conditions, using less energy to keep the water warm, resulting in huge savings. Control your Clim8zone heat pump directly from the topside control panel. Easily switch between heating, cooling, and automatic modes, to maintain the perfect water temperature in any season, with reliable operation in ambient air temperatures from -20°C to 43°C.
Heat or cool your hot tub easily with the control display
This Balboa heat pump is equipped with a variable speed compressor with a smart algorithm and extensive capabilities. Using your central spa control display or via your smartphone you can select how you want to heat or cool your spa. Select easily from either of the following options: heating via the standard electric heater, or heating via the Clim8zone heat pump, or both simultaneously.
Perfectly compatible with our Northern Lights systems
The Clim8zone™ heat pump is designed in such a way that it can be installed both hydraulically and electronically in conjuction with a Northern Lights spa system. For the USA this might not be the case in all states, though. The heat pump is powered directly by the Northern Lights spa system, no additional power line is therefore needed. The Northern Lights spa system’s software will then operate the heat pump fully automatically. Note that an updated Northern Lights control unit and a Spatouch3 control panel are required. The Clim8zone heat pump cannot be retrofitted if the existing spa system does not have the required updated control unit and a suitable Spatouch3 control panel. Contact us for more information if you wish to add the Clim8zone heat pump to your existing Northern Lights hot tub.

DIMENSIONS
Mount the heat pump on a flat and horizontal surface like a concrete slab or tiled floor. It is recommended that the heat pump be installed no more than 2m from the spa system. Do not install the Clim8zone indoors. Drill mounting holes in the cement slab or tiled floor and secure the heat pump using expansion wedge anchores. Make sure to place a rubber foot pad under each foot of the heat pump first (included).
MINIMUM CLEARANCES
Follow the minimum clearance requirements shown above during installation and operation of the Clim8zone heat pump. These clearances insure proper air flow and easy access. All air vents must be unobstructed and free of leaves and debris. Air is sucked in through the rectangular air vent and blow out through the round air vent by the heat pump’s fan. Use suitable pvc pipes to connect the heat pump to the spa system.
