Why South Florida Homeowners Choose the TropiCal Inverter
Perfect for Older Homes
Many South Florida homes, especially those built before the 1990s, have electrical panels that are not equipped for high amperage pool equipment. Traditional heat pumps often require a main panel upgrade costing thousands of dollars.
The TropiCal T70 runs on just a 20 amp breaker, the same as many standard household appliances. This allows you to enjoy a heated pool without upgrading your electrical system.
Works with Variable Speed Pumps
Already have a variable speed pump helping you save on electricity? The TropiCal is designed to work at lower flow rates, allowing your pump to run at energy saving speeds while still maintaining efficient heating. This synergy creates compounding energy savings month after month.
Slim Design for Tight Spaces
Zero lot line homes, compact backyards, and tight equipment pads are common in South Florida. The TropiCal’s streamlined design takes up less space than traditional heat pumps without sacrificing performance.
The T70 measures just 43 x 19 x 28 inches, making it ideal for areas where bulkier units will not fit.
Eco Friendly Construction
Built with 70 percent recycled materials and using R32 refrigerant with a lower global warming potential, the TropiCal is designed with environmental responsibility in mind. Combined with its exceptional energy efficiency, choosing the TropiCal benefits both your wallet and the planet.

How does the PoolSync app work?
The TropiCal connects to your home WiFi network, allowing you to control it through the free PoolSync app. You can adjust temperature settings, switch operating modes, monitor system status, and receive alerts from anywhere.

Can the TropiCal work with my existing pool equipment?
Yes. The TropiCal integrates seamlessly with most pool systems and works especially well with variable speed pumps at lower flow rates. During installation, technicians ensure compatibility with your existing equipment.
How quiet is whisper quiet?
The TropiCal can operate as quietly as 33 decibels in ECO mode. That is quieter than a typical library and comparable to a soft whisper. Even in BOOST mode, it remains significantly quieter than traditional heat pumps.
