Project Overview

The project involved the replacement of the existing fossil-fuel-based pool heating system with a MasterTherm BA60i inverter heat pump. Designed for high performance and reliability, this system delivers low-temperature hot water (LTHW) directly to the pool heating circuit, ensuring precise temperature control and sustainable operation.

Scope of Works

• Removal of the existing boiler or direct electric heating system (if applicable)
• Installation of 1 × BA60i MasterTherm air-to-water inverter heat pump
• Direct connection to the pool heat exchanger system
• Integration with the hotel’s heating control infrastructure
• Heat Pump System Overview
• Pool Heating
• 1 × MasterTherm BA60i Inverter Heat Pump
• Supplies LTHW to the swimming pool heating circuit
• Inverter-driven for precise temperature control and energy efficiency
• Designed to maintain stable water temperatures in all seasons
• Quiet operation, ideal for leisure and hospitality environments
• Intelligent Control & Monitoring
• The system is connected to MasterTherm’s integrated control platform, offering:
• Real-time temperature control of the pool heating loop
• Weather-compensated performance adjustment
• Optional remote monitoring and diagnostics
• Integration-ready for future BMS or smart system upgrades

Tech Notes & Smart Control

• BA60i sized to pool HX duty with stable ΔT for precise water temperature control.
• Weather‑compensated LTHW and optional remote diagnostics for quick FM response.

Guest Experience & Operations

• Quieter pool plant and consistent swim temperatures throughout the day.

Energy & Carbon (SEAI)

• Switching from fossil-fired plant to high-efficiency heat pumps reduces on‑site combustion (Scope 1) and cuts overall CO₂ per guest‑night.
• Heat recovery (where fitted) further lowers electrical input per kWh of useful heat or DHW.
• Aligned with SEAI guidance for decarbonising hospitality; suitable for EXEED‑style M&V and public‑sector style reporting where applicable.
• Benefits grow as the Irish electricity grid continues to decarbonise, improving the carbon intensity of delivered heat over time.
