Description

Identification and Product Family: The ACT-1250 is the model identifier within the Signature XL series from Aqua Comfort Solutions. It corresponds to the Heat Only version and is part of a line that includes the ACT-750, ACT-1100, ACT-1500, and ACT-1750 models, in addition to versions with cooling capability (H/C).

Capacity and Efficiency: It delivers 118,000 BTU of heating power with a COP of 6.1, one of the highest in its category. It requires a minimum 40-amp circuit breaker and operates on 230V single-phase at 60 Hz, with a recommended water flow between 20 and 70 GPM.

Turboguard Heat Exchanger: It incorporates a titanium heat exchanger (marketed as Turboguard) that is virtually immune to damage caused by water chemistry imbalances, such as incorrect pH or chlorine levels. This makes it especially durable compared to copper or cupronickel exchangers.

Compressor and Fan: It uses a Scroll compressor, known for its efficiency and durability. The fan assembly is designed to use less energy and run almost silently, making it ideal for residential installations where noise is a concern.

Dimensions and Weight: The unit measures approximately 39 x 30 x 35 inches (L x W x H) and has a shipping weight of 240 lbs. Its compact design allows for relatively straightforward installation in standard pool equipment spaces.

Maintenance: The owner’s manual recommends keeping the evaporator coil clean and free of obstructions, periodically checking water chemistry, and completely draining the unit if exposed to freezing temperatures to prevent pipe damage.
