The problem

There are many important factors to consider when planning and designing an indoor swimming pool. Maintaining a comfortable pool environment requires the pool water and air to be heated, and in many cases this heating is carried out by heat exchangers and boilers using oil or gas as fuel.
As a result of continuous evaporation, the pool water loses a significant quantity of heat. The resulting warm humid air is not only uncomfortable, but also contains vast amounts of valuable heat in the form of latent energy. This must be removed from the pool hall to protect the pool building from destructive condensation and chemical damage, whilst maintaining a safe and comfortable leisure environment for bathers.

​Reusing this energy, rather than wasting it and continually needing to replace it with new heat, offers the opportunity to combine effective environmental control with saving energy.

The solutions

It is impossible to avoid water evaporation in leisure centres and swimming pool halls, however using a carefully designed ventilation solution, the relative humidity can be controlled to a comfortable level. A swimming pool environmental control unit must carry out its primary task of dehumidifying the pool hall air, be designed and constructed to withstand the pool air environment, and provide a continuously modulated quantity of heated or cooled fresh air for the comfort of users. We can offer two solutions for indoor pools, with both heat pump and fresh air technologies. Zoe INTL’s expert sales engineers can advise what the best solution is for your leisure centre air handling.

Heat pumps

A Zoe INTL Delta will provide the complete answer to humidity control, water/air temperature control and real time fresh air requirements. By recovering the latent energy in the moisture laden air of a pool hall using heat pumps, a Zoe INTL Delta will return this energy to heat the pool water or use it to assist with pool air heating. There is usually sufficient recovered energy to provide all the operational water heating requirements with any further surplus used for air heating.

Zoe INTL systems can simultaneously care for and preserve the building structure, reduce energy usage by up to 70% and lessen associated CO2 emissions by up to 70%. As the units are based on heat pump technology, efficiencies are normally around 300%.

Fresh air ventilation

A complete solution like the DanX offers a wide range of benefits – from greatly improved air quality and no chlorine smell in the pool room, to options for free cooling in summer and very high dehumidification capacity during winter, when condensation problems can be serious.

The solutions are ideal for private pools and hotel pools as well as municipal and commercial projects in every climate around the world. From massive water fun areas and luxurious hotel pools to spa resorts, health resorts and traditional swimming pool halls.

Highly efficient heat recovery and low specific fan power, combined with an optimized control strategy, contribute to cost efficient operation and significant energy savings. All components are chosen to ensure high capacity and a long service life. The system lets you add as much as 100% outdoor air. Heat exchanger that delivers up to 95% heat recovery combined with low-energy EC fan motors and optimal, high efficiency compressor ensure the lowest possible operating costs.

On the basis of pool size, water temperature, air temperature, humidity and bathing activity, Zoe INTL’s units can be designed to accommodate any requirement.

How to heat water efficiently in hotels

Heating hot water in hotels is an expensive business.

With world-wide spiralling energy costs and increased demand for both energy efficiency and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, more and more hotels are turning to Zoe INTL heat pumps to solve their water heating demands.

Hot water heat pumps are particularly suited to hotter climates such as the Middle East and South East Asia, and Zoe INTL heat pumps are specifically designed to maximise the benefit these temperate climates offer. All Zoe INTL hot water heat pumps are pre-charged with R134a – an ozone friendly refrigerant that can reliably provide hot water up to 68°C – and in all climates, hot or cold. Many hotels in the Far East and Middle East such as Hilton, Holiday Inn, Marriott, InterContinental and Ritz-Carlton, to name a few, have already recognised the benefit of this win-win situation by installing Zoe INTL heat pumps and currently enjoy 24/7 low cost hot water production.

As a further benefit all Zoe INTL heat pumps have industry leading efficiencies and exceptionally quiet cutting edge fans. They also feature WRAS approved heat exchangers. WRAS is a conformance mark that demonstrates that an item complies to strict standards set out by UK water regulations.

The solution

Zoe INTL air source heat pumps use dynamic renewable technology sourcing heat from every climatic condition and are available in different designs to suit space or hot water heating.

Unlike fossil fuel and direct electric heating systems, a Zoe INTL heat pump is capable of delivering up to five times more energy than it consumes, and unlike solar and wind powered systems, Zoe INTL heat pumps do not need the sun to shine or the wind to blow in order to provide this efficiency.

Heat pumps

Zoe INTL hot water heat pumps are electro mechanical machines that extract energy from an air source and upgrade this energy to a usable form of heat that is rejected to a water system. With efficiencies of up to 500% – most of the energy that is provided is absorbed completely free of charge from ambient air around the heat pump.

Heat pumps are practical devices that can be used in a wide range of heating, cooling or dehumidification applications. Unquestionably an energy efficient product, unique in its ability to concentrate and supply more energy that it consumes, a heat pump is a real alternative to conventional heating systems.

Installation

Zoe INTL heat pumps are simple to install, require little maintenance and alleviate the need for fuel storage tanks and flues that are normally associated with fossil fuel heating systems. Further, due to their unique ability to collect and enhance “free” heat from the air around them, they are kinder to the environment than traditional heating systems and exceptionally inexpensive to operate.

Pro-Pac heat pumps can be installed outside or in a plant room that has adjacent outside walls. Pro-Pac can be supplied with high speed axial fans.​ The Zoe INTL 34 range are designed for outdoor or plant room installation and are provided with centrifugal fans as standard. A choice of fan external static pressure offers flexible installation and an ability for the units to provide cold air through a ducted system.
