How to find the quietest swimming pool heater on the market
When you’re finally able to relax by the pool, the last thing you want is to be bothered by a buzz of your pool heater. The only sound you’ll welcome is the gentle tumbling of ice cubes melting in your drink!
So which pool heater is the quietest on the market? You relax by the pool while we crunch the numbers.
As you know, decibels (dB) are used to measure sound. To understand how quiet heat pumps are, it’s worthwhile knowing what the decibels are for familiar sounds. For example:
- Leaves rustling is 20 dB
- A whisper is 30 dB
- A quiet library is 40dB
- A dishwasher is 60dB
- An alarm clock is 80dB
- A lawn mower is 90dB
| OBJECT | NOISE LEVEL dB(A) AT 1 METER |
|---|---|
| Leaves Rustling | 20dB |
| A Whisper | 30dB |
| A Quiet Library | 40dB |
| A Dishwasher | 60dB |
| Alarm Clock | 80dB |
| Lawn Mower | 90dB |
That should put things into perspective when you learn that the Aquaheat pool heat pump sounds from 36.8 dB, which is quieter than a whisper or a library. In fact, we believe that Aquaheat is the quietest heat pump out there. But are we right?
Based on the product sheets of our various competitors, (the air pump noise in dB(A) at 1m distance), we can confirm that Aquaheat is the quietest, see below for details.
