Using A/C to heat pool?

[cleancloths]

I recently read about a laundromat that does exactly this. There is some company out there that makes an evaporator modification that lets the evaporator from the central a/c dump its heat to water (i.e. a swimming pool).

I hadn't seen the 1st link before, that's interesting, but I wonder how effective it would be.

The second link just looks like a regular pool heat pump with lots of bells and whistles.

I think what the thread started out asking about is referred to as a "water source" home heat pump with the pool being the water that the house A/C dumps the heat into.

I did a little searching, but still haven't found the link I was looking for.

This link is starting to get close: http://www.dulley.com/docs/f458.htm
