They also say that they can "accommodate" salt water pools, but the pump will need to be "washed off" every "couple of weeks. They have a one year warranty on their many sized pumps.

That made me wonder....hmmm. I hadn't heard of pool cooling and I am old but I do try to keep current. I like to understand the "science" of things. Perhaps someone here can explain how you cool a pool other than to blow air with a fan on the circulating water.

After having T and D in our yard the last couple of months installing a pool, I am in awe of their expertise and their high standards and would think they would know about pool cooling.
As I wrote here before, and after the very first link that showed mist systems along with other links and discussion later on commercial pool heat pump systems that reverse AND cool, the intent was not to tell the Rec. Dept. and District what they ought to buy, from whom, with whose accused demand for amenities fee increase to finance cooling, nor anything like that.

Again, here are various major manufacturer rep catalog pages online, that are ALL classified under heat pumps that reverse and cool.

The second link I'll put is a specific example of one of many commercial Heat & Cool Pumps......

And, to correct what was misrepresented about info I posted before, which cites usage of these Heat & Cool commercial pumps in Orlando, Ft. Myers, and KEY WEST which are equally or more "humid" than here....Here is that industry news page again.
