01
4–6× more heat per unit
A heat pump moves existing warmth from the air into your pool rather than generating it from scratch. That is why it uses a fraction of the electricity of an element or gas heater.

Why a heat pump
Warm water without the electricity bill shock.
An element heater turns electricity into heat, one unit in for one unit out. A heat pump simply moves the warmth already in the air into your pool — the same principle as your fridge, in reverse.
02
Swim through winter
Johannesburg pools lose heat fast on clear winter nights. A correctly sized unit holds a comfortable temperature so the pool stays in use all year, not just for four months.
03
Quiet inverter running
Inverter units ramp up and down instead of hard starting. The result is a softer sound profile and less wear on the compressor over its life.
04
No gas, no drums, no element
Nothing to refill and no element to burn out. A heat pump needs clean airflow, correct water flow and a yearly service — that is the whole routine.
The range
Alliance and ITS — two ways to the same warm pool.
We keep it to the two ranges we know inside out, so the advice you get is honest. Both are supplied new, with full warranty support and servicing from our own team.
The workhorse of the range
Alliance Heatpumps
Straightforward, robust and built for South African conditions. Alliance units are the practical choice for family pools that need reliable heat season after season, with service access that keeps long-term ownership simple.
- Titanium heat exchanger, built for salt and chlorine pools
- Corrosion-resistant cabinet and coil protection
- Simple controls with low-maintenance service access
- Sized from small plunge pools to large family pools
Precision inverter control
ITS Heatpumps
For owners who want quiet, precise heating. Inverter ITS units modulate instead of switching on and off, holding your set temperature steadily while running softly — ideal for pools close to a patio, entertainment area or neighbour's boundary.
- Inverter compressor for stable water temperature
- Quieter low-speed running, day and night
- Digital controller with clear temperature readout
- Efficient performance across a wide ambient range
Sizing guide
Right-sized beats bigger.
An oversized unit cycles on and off; an undersized one never gets there. Start with your pool volume — it is the single number that decides which heat pump class you need.

Indicative only. Exposed or windy sites, and swimming through winter, need more capacity — we confirm the final model on site.
Installed by Legacy Air
Neat pipework, correct airflow, honest commissioning.
Installation
A heat pump is only as good as its install.
Most disappointing heat pumps we are called out to were not the wrong machine — they were badly placed, badly plumbed or starved of airflow. Every Legacy Air installation follows the same checklist.
- Free on-site assessment and pool volume check
- Written quote with the right unit for your pool
- Level plinth, clearances and airflow planned correctly
- Neat bypass plumbing with isolation valves
- Electrical connection by a registered electrician
- Commissioning, flow balancing and handover
Aftercare
We still answer the phone in year three.
A heat pump lasts when it is looked after. Legacy Air services and repairs both ranges — and units we did not install, wherever parts allow.
01
Annual service
Coil clean, filter and flow check, gas and electrical inspection, controller calibration. A yearly service protects efficiency and your warranty.
02
Repairs & parts
Fan motors, compressors, controllers, flow switches and heat exchangers. We diagnose honestly and tell you when a repair is not worth it.
03
Winter & holiday care
Going away or closing the pool for a season? We set the unit for low-use operation and check it over before you swim again.
