Our take on the ACiQ 18,000 BTU Pool Heat Pump with Cooling

The ACiQ PHP-PA-18-115 is a small pool and spa heat pump that both heats and cools water. It delivers 18,000 BTU of heating and 12,000 BTU of cooling, runs on a standard 115V plug, and is rated for pools up to 3,000 gallons. A side-discharge design keeps leaves off the top, and the digital controller plus Smart Life app control add convenience. It suits owners of small above-ground pools, plunge pools and hot tubs who want a plug-in unit they can set up and store seasonally.
