Swimming Pool Heat Exchangers

Bowman swimming pool heat exchangers are renowned for reliability and efficiency. Whether heating your pool with a traditional boiler or a renewable energy source, Bowman is the obvious choice.

Heating swimming pools efficiently requires a high quality heat exchanger, designed to transfer thermal energy to the pool water quickly, whilst providing long-life durability. As the UK’s leading manufacturer, you can have complete confidence in the performance and reliability of Bowman swimming pool heat exchangers, as they’re proven worldwide in commercial and domestic applications, from spas right up to Olympic sized pools.

Product Benefits

  • Energy saving Heats pools up to three times faster
  • Premium quality Designed specifically for swimming pools
  • Easy to install Solvent weld composite end covers on many models
  • Titanium models The ‘fit and forget’ solution with 10-year guarantee*
  • Simple to maintain Easily dissembled for routine cleaning

Features

Shell and Tube Design

The tube stack is packed with tubes and internal baffles to provide the largest and most effective surface area, enabling the unit to heat pools considerably faster than some competitors’ products.

Energy Saving

The faster a pool gets to the required temperature, the lower the energy costs! Bowman units heat pools up to three times faster and the result is reduced energy costs and improved pool availability.

Easy to Install

The extremely popular EC and FC heat exchanger ranges are fitted with solvent weld connectors, which enable the unit to be installed directly into the pool pipework.

Titanium Models

In addition to stainless steel and cupronickel options, all Bowman swimming pool heat exchangers are available with titanium tube stacks which are suitable for all types of pool water treatment.

Renewable Energy

A range of heat exchangers specially designed for use with solar and renewable energy sources are specially designed to operate with the lower water temperatures typically provided by green energy.

Simple to Maintain

End covers on all models are easily removable, enabling the tube stack to be easily extracted from the outer ‘shell’ ensuring all maintenance requirements are simple and straightforward.
