Astral Pinnacle iHP SD 217 - High-Capacity Heating with Premium Efficiency
The AstralPool Pinnacle iHP SD 217 is a powerful inverter heat pump designed for larger pools or installations that require higher heating output without sacrificing efficiency.
At the core of the system is full inverter technology, which allows the heat pump to continuously adjust compressor and fan speeds based on real-time heating demand. Instead of operating in simple on/off cycles like traditional heat pumps, the Pinnacle modulates smoothly to maintain the desired pool temperature while minimising energy use.
With a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of up to 22, the heat pump delivers exceptional efficiency, converting a small amount of electrical energy into a large amount of heating power. This makes it a strong option for pool owners who want high heating capacity with controlled operating costs.
✅Quiet Operation Around Your Pool Area
Even with its larger heating capacity, the Pinnacle iHP SD 217 is engineered to run quietly.
The system features multilayer acoustic insulation surrounding the compressor, combined with a carefully designed fan system that reduces operational noise. This allows the heat pump to run discreetly, even when heating demand is higher.
For pools located close to outdoor living spaces, patios, or bedrooms, this whisper-quiet operation helps maintain a peaceful poolside environment.
✅Reliable Performance in Cold Weather
Many pool heat pumps struggle when outdoor temperatures drop, but the Pinnacle series is designed to perform reliably in challenging conditions.
The SD 217 model can operate in ambient temperatures as low as −15 °C, ensuring dependable heating even in cooler climates or during early spring and late autumn.
With intelligent defrost functionality and a robust design, the unit continues to operate effectively even when frost forms on outdoor equipment. This helps maintain comfortable pool temperatures and extend the usable swimming season.
✅Smart Connectivity and Automation Integration
The Pinnacle iHP SD 217 includes modern connectivity features that make managing pool heating simple.
A built-in Wi-Fi module allows users to monitor and control heating settings remotely via smartphone or tablet. This means you can adjust the pool temperature, check system performance, or prepare the pool before arriving home.
For pools equipped with AstralPool Halo or Connect 10 automation, the heat pump integrates seamlessly, providing plug-and-play control within a complete pool automation system.
Who This Heat Pump Is Best For
The AstralPool Pinnacle iHP SD 217 is best suited for pool owners who need higher heating output while maintaining excellent efficiency and quiet operation.
It is particularly well-suited for:
- Large residential pools or pools with higher heating demand
- Homeowners looking to reduce long-term pool heating costs
- Pools located near outdoor entertaining areas where quiet operation matters
- Users wanting Wi-Fi control and smart pool automation integration
- Regions with cooler climates where reliable heating is essential
For customers who want strong heating performance combined with modern efficiency and smart connectivity, the Pinnacle iHP SD 217 provides a premium solution for larger pool installations.
