Digital or Analog
Rheem is the only heat pump manufacturer that offers a digital or analog control for its heat
pump line. We have you covered with the best of both worlds. Our digital control is easy to
use, has a pool and spa temperature setting as well as full diagnostics. For those that prefer
analog, Rheem offers our direct set thermostat. The easy-to-read, easy-to-use dials allow
you to set your water temperature just the way you like it. Gone are the days of the guess-
work involved with having to choose between the 'blue & red swoosh' like on your car's
A/C…now you have the temperature targets displayed right on the dial!
Spiral “Rifled” Titanium Tube Heat Exchanger
And they said it couldn't be done…Titanium has gained world recogni-
tion in just about every industry for its "nearly unbreakable"
qualities. In the past, titaniums rigidity made it nearly impossible to use in an ultra-efficient heat ex-
changer design. The spiral rifled tube increases the surface area where super-heated gases can
transfer heat efficiently to water. A titanium tube heat exchanger provides a truly efficient waterway
that withstands the abuses of harsh pool chemistry and corrosion. The spiral "rifled" exchanger
also helps reduce deposit build-up, and increases efficiency by performing a “scoop-and-lift” ac-
tion. While neither Titanium nor rifling is new to the heat pump industry, leave it to Rheem to bring
the best of both worlds together to maximize your backyard investment!
Copeland Scroll
TM
Compressor – Quiet & Reliable Operation
The Copeland Scroll compressor in your Rheem heat pump is the same
workhorse that is used in Rheem air conditioners all around the world! The
simple design of the Copeland Scroll compressor builds in reliability and allows it to operate at
lower sound and vibration levels than reciprocating compressors. In fact, tests have shown that
Scroll compressors are up to three times quieter than reciprocating models. Durability is based
on a very robust design and contains only a few moving parts. Because the Copeland Scroll
compressor starts unloaded, strain on the motor is considerably reduced. During rough oper-
ating conditions, spiral components within the unit reposition themselves to protect the com-
pressor from damage. Millions of air conditioners can't be wrong…the performance of a
Copeland Scroll compressor gets better with time: it "wears in," not out.
“Swept Wing” Fan Blades
Specially designed "Swept Wing" fan blades operate more efficiently and generate minimal sound.
Raypak heat pumps are packed full of premium quality components.
Fan Motor
The Premium Emerson
®
permanent-split capacitor (PSC), sealed ball bearing motor is matched
specifically for the fan blade assembly, which allows optimum efficiency with extended motor life.
