💰 Excellent Value Heat Pump for Medium Pools

The Flotide A13/32 delivers 12.5kW of heating capacity at an affordable price point. Perfect for pool owners who want reliable, efficient heating without the premium cost of inverter technology. A proven workhorse for UK pools.

🎯 Perfect For

• Above-ground pools and medium in-ground pools up to 55,000 litres (55m³)
• Seasonal swimmers — operates above 7°C (April–October in UK)

⚡ Proven Technology

The A-series uses traditional on/off compressor technology — simple, reliable, and well-proven over millions of installations worldwide. With a COP of 6.06, you get over 6kW of heat for every 1kW of electricity — still 80% free energy from the air!
