Free PoolSync Mobile App
Control your pool temperature from anywhere using the free PoolSync app available for iOS and Android devices. Adjust settings remotely, monitor system performance, run diagnostics, and manage your heat pump directly from your phone. Registering through the app also unlocks an additional year of warranty coverage.
Heat and Cool Year Round
South Florida weather changes throughout the year, and the TropiCal adapts effortlessly. It heats your pool during cooler evenings and winter months while also providing cooling relief during peak summer heat. One system delivers complete temperature control in every season.
Whisper Quiet Operation
With sound levels as low as 33 decibels, the TropiCal is the quietest pool heat pump available. This makes it ideal for pools located near patios, bedrooms, entertaining areas, or neighboring properties where noise matters most.
Three Intelligent Operating Modes
The TropiCal offers three intelligent modes designed to match your lifestyle, energy goals, and comfort preferences.
ECO Mode
Delivers maximum energy efficiency and ultra quiet performance. Ideal for maintaining temperature overnight or when the pool is not in use. The system operates at lower speeds to reduce electricity consumption while keeping water comfortable.
SMART Mode
Automatically adjusts system output based on environmental conditions and temperature demand. Once activated, the system manages efficiency and noise levels without requiring manual input, delivering optimal performance at all times.
BOOST Mode
Delivers maximum heating power when you need fast results. Perfect for preparing the pool quickly for guests, recovering temperature after storms, or warming the water on short notice.
Perfect for Older Homes
Many South Florida homes built before the 1990s were not designed for high amperage pool equipment. Traditional heat pumps often require costly electrical panel upgrades.
The TropiCal T70 operates on a standard 20 amp breaker, allowing homeowners to enjoy pool heating without expensive electrical modifications.
Works with Variable Speed Pumps
The TropiCal is engineered to perform efficiently at lower water flow rates. This allows variable speed pumps to run at energy saving speeds while still delivering consistent heating performance.
The combination of a variable speed pump and inverter heat pump creates long term energy savings and smoother system operation.
Slim Design for Tight Spaces
Compact equipment pads and zero lot line homes are common throughout South Florida. The TropiCal features a slim footprint that fits where larger heat pumps cannot.
The T70 measures only 43 inches long, 19 inches wide, and 28 inches tall, making it ideal for space limited installations.
Eco Friendly Construction
The TropiCal is manufactured using approximately 70 percent recycled materials and utilizes R32 refrigerant with a lower global warming potential. Combined with efficiency ratings reaching up to 10.8 COP in ECO mode, this system delivers strong performance with reduced environmental impact.
