Can I install my self? What is the refrigerant? Must it be replenished?
Reply
Yes, anyone can install the pool cooler themselves. In the bottom basis in the box is the installation ,operation manual with diagram and parts list. You can go to a local hardware store and get the proper installation parts. There is no refrigeration, no freon or gas to operate. Electric 110 Volt 60 Hertz 8 Amps fan does the work. This unit hooks up with the pool pump breaker. The home breaker powering the pool pump and pool cooler must be 20 Amps or above.

Does the Glacier pool cooler have a thermostat? If not how do you regulate temperature?
Reply
The GPC does not come with a temperature control. In most cases an owner will run their cooler at night along with their pool's cycle. An owner may find that running the pool a longer or shorter amount of time will give them their optimal temperature.

Is this an evaporative cooler - or does it just cool water by running at night with lower temperatures? How does it work?
Reply
Yes, this system is based on evaporative cooling. The manufacture has modified the technology to accommodate the swimming pool industry. The pool water is circulated through the system while a fan cools the droplets and removes the heat from the water instantly. The water is then pumped back into the pool lines and circulated back into the pool.

Our summer temperatures average 98-103. Our pool is extremely warm. How much of a drop in water temperature can we expect? Does the unit have to run continually to be effective and finally, what type of operating costs can be attributed to this unit?
Reply
The pool cooler will drop the pool 10 to 15 degrees. The operating costs are around a dollar a night on running the cooler 10 hours. It does not have to run continually, just run it at night when the sun is off the pool and it will perform and drop this pool down and be refreshing.

Can this cooling system be used with a salt water pool?
Reply
All of the chillers we carry are salt water compatible. After a couple of weeks of usage, spray down the pool cooler with a garden hose to wash off salt residue if any.

Hello, I just purchased a pool chiller from your company. Prior to the chiller my pool has been unusable. It's temperature was 95 degrees before installation of the chiller. Now it is a refreshing 83 degrees. I cannot recommend your company enough. It is very rare that a product lives up to it's rputation, but yours certainly does. Thank you again.

(5 out of 5 stars) Glacier--A+ in Houston
Reviewed By: Rob C. from Montomgery, TX ()
Pros: Cools as promised, cheap to run
Cons: large unit.
I purchased the Glacier recently and just had it installed by my pool guy.. the unit works as promised and temps are now approx. 10 degrees cooler then they were. it dropped an unusable 95 degree to 85-87 depending on the time of day. This is with a dark pebbletec finish in all day sun. the one plus I have is the cooler sits in the shade from 2pm on during the day so it can cool if you want during the day. right now I just have it set to run 8 hours during the night. my pool guy put actuators and hooked it into my Pentair panel so it is fully automated.

(5 out of 5 stars) No Southern Pool Should Be Without One Of These Coolers!
Reviewed By: Nick DelRegno from Rowlett, TX ()
Pros: Refreshing Water Temperature
Cons: Size
I purchased the GPC210 Glacier Pool Cooler last year mid-season. Our pool is a 17000 gallon volleyball pool, but since we have Tahoe Blue Pebble plaster, we elected for the larger unit. The pool was hot yet again and after researching the options, I elected to try this evaporative cooler. I SO wish I had done it sooner. With the instructions I was able to purchase all of the parts needed for installation and install it myself. However, unless you are comfortable with doing your own plumbing, hire a plumber/pool company to install it. The unit was MUCH larger than I anticipated. As such, to fit it on the equipment pad in my fenced-in pool-equipment area, I had to relocate my waterfall pump and extend the concrete pad. After installation, we noticed an immediate difference. We could feel the cooler water coming from the in-floor cleaning jets. Since most of our return is through the attached hot tub via the spillway, we noted that the hot tub was several degrees cooler than the pool. At one point, we had a couple days of rain and we had to turn off the cooler as the pool temperature had dropped below 80 degrees. This year our pool temperature hasn't exceeded 87 degrees. Even though we have been over 100 degrees ambient air temperature for the past 10 days. I cannot describe how nice it is to jump into an 85 degree pool when it is 103 degrees outside. The only issue that we have with our cooler is having our Jandy PDA system turn it off when the hot tub is on. We have to turn it off manually, otherwise, it drains the hot tub. I need talk to Jandy to see if it can be a pool-mode only device. But for now, my family knows to turn it off before enabling the spa. I have seen no appreciable increase in my electric bill from using the cooler. It uses very little electricity, but requires the pump to be running. We run it whenever the pool is on during the day and we run it for 4 hours at night. I wish my pool company had told me about this from the beginning. I would have had it installed when the pool was built.

Pros: Totally works - pool very comfortable - can be too cool.
Cons: Non known at this time
Had cooler installed about 4 weeks ago. My pool had alread gotten to 90 degrees. The first time I ran the cooler, the water went from 90 to 79 degrees. This year for the 4th of July, my pool was a refreshing 82 degrees w/temps in mid-90's. I love gadgets, but this is my favorite purchase in the last couple of years.

Pros: energy efficient
Cons: none
We LOVE this chiller!. For the past 2 summers the water was just too hot to enjoy the pool with the temperature in the upper 90's and low 100's. Two days after installation (we have a large pool) the water is pleasantly refreshing and we have used it every day. Thanks for getting us back in our pool.

(5 out of 5 stars) Nice Surprise
Reviewed By: Dan B. from Arlington, TX ()
Pros: Works - cools the pool
Cons: extremely large - needs to be hidden behind a building or is an eye sore
With Texas setting heat records, the Glacier Pool "swamp cooler" was a surprising success. Our pool had gotten to the mid 90's with air temp in the 107 - 110 range. Very uncomfortable swimming. Not refreshing at all. Yesterday we enjoyed our pool at 87 degrees! Thanks INYO. The product is a success in our book.

(5 out of 5 stars) It absolutely works as promised
Reviewed By: John R. from Round Rock, TX ()
I live outside of Austin, TX where we have had over 60 days above 100 so far this summer. By mid-June my pool water was mostly 92-93 with a cool down to around 89 by morning. It just wasn't refreshing to spend any time in the pool. After having the Glacier Chiller installed, the water temperature is around 82 in the morning and totally enjoyable to cool off in. I run it at night and notice that the fan is actually quieter than my pool pump. I do need to add more water than usual due to the evaporation but it is not excessive. I would note to make sure that you have a concrete pad ready for the chiller. I did not and had to delay a couple of weeks while the concrete cured before I could have the installation completed.

(3 out of 5 stars) Wrong specs
Reviewed By: Thomas S. from Shreveport, LA ()
Pros: easy to install, simple design, small foot print
Cons: wrong specs, had to pick up a shipping company because they wouldnt deliver to house. Not packaged well and had some damage.
I purchased my unit one year ago and cannot get it to work well. The specs said up to 40,000 gallon pool size when purchased. Now the specs say up to 30,000 gallons. My pool is 35,000 gallons. Make sure you go big or your pool will only cool 5 degrees in 36 hours.
