Product description

Experience the convenience of the New Edition Poolican from Poolex. An all-in-one technical room, ideal for wooden and well-insulated above-ground pools up to 15m³, the Poolican combines a Full Inverter heat pump with essential functions like circulation, filtration, water treatment, and lighting control, allowing you and your family to enjoy a comfortable and healthy swimming experience.

Connection of the Poolican is fast and easy, just connect your 32/38mm pool hoses and plug the 5m mains cable into an outdoor socket, once installed, operate the unit using the touch control display on top or via your smartphone using the built-in Wi-Fi (requires connection to home network).

Inside the Poolican there is a circulation pump, cartridge filter, salt electrolyser, a 5kW Full Inverter heat pump and new for 2025 is the addition of lighting control.

The Inverter heat pump provides continuous operation and lower power consumption, reverse defrost automatically de-ices the heat pump to ensure it keeps working at lower ambient temperatures.

Thanks to the built-in salt electrolyser, the chlorination of your pool is more natural and free from the disadvantages of chemicals – meaning no more floating chlorine dispensers**.

Control your Poolican the smart way

Using the new Poolex App, you control in real time the water circulation, filtration, disinfection, heating and lighting of the pool, all from your smartphone, with greater precision. The Poolican streamlines your pool management by centralising all essential functions, offering an all-in-one solution for maximum performance and a simplified maintenance.

Connection to your home Wi-Fi network is required.

How does the salt electrolyser work?

The principle is simple, electrolysis breaks down the salt contained in the water into chlorine and sodium, more natural than disinfectant chlorine tablets, the disinfectant reverts back into salt when it comes into contact with organic components such as bacteria and skin cells etc. or under the effect of light (sun), which starts the electrolysis cycle again.

**Please note: that in order for the salt electrolyser to create chlorine you will need to convert your pool to salt water by adding salt pellets, you will need 3kg of salt per 1m³ (1,000 litres) of water to increase the salt rate by 3.0g/l (3,000ppm).

You can switch the salt electrolyser off if you would prefer to use chlorine tablets instead of converting your pool water to salt water.

What is COP?

COP stands for Coefficient of Performance

COP is quoted as a number, such as 5.5

For each kW of energy input, 5.5 x kW would be output

The higher the output, the lower the running costs

Installation

Heat loss

If you are thinking of heating your pool you should cover the pool when not in use as 80% of heat loss occurs through surface evaporation, a separate solar or bubble cover is a worthwhile investment if you don’t have an existing cover.

With an above ground pool it is especially important to keep it covered as these pools are not well insulated against heat loss – additional insulation around the sides and bottom of an above-ground pool can help to retain valuable heat – in fact properly insulating your pool can extend your season or even reduce the size of heat pump required.

The Poolican includes a 5kW Inverter heat pump with a fully variable speed compressor and fan, the motor speeds up and slows down as needed to achieve and maintain the required temperature, the result is that the desired temperature will be reached more quickly and maintained more efficiently than a fixed speed motor.

The Poolican pool heat pump has an average C.O.P. of 5.5, meaning that for each kW of energy consumed up to 5.5kW of heat is transferred to your pool (dependent on both air and water temperature).

Your Poolican pool heat pump should always be installed outside, restrictions on air flow around a heat pump such as dense vegetation or solid surfaces such as sheds, fences or walls will lead to a drop in efficiency and heating ability, it especially important that cooled air can be properly dispersed away from the unit.

The Poolican is manufactured from high-quality materials, the ABS case offers protection from the weather, the Poolican is also resistant to damage from salt water.

The manufacturer literature may state that the heat pump should be positioned above the waterline, the assumption being that pools are in-ground, therefore the heat pump would sit at ground level.

If you have an above-ground pool please also position your heat pump at ground level (therefore below the waterline), there is no need to elevate the heat pump.

Helpful and informed

Graham Chester (verified purchase)

Nick was very helpful in sorting out a query we had about a pool bypass kit and how to install the kit. Sent us a diagram by email following a useful telephone conversation. We have now installed a bypass kit and are delighted it’s fully working. Thank you for your help.
