Damvent Max.e.Pool

Hybrid AHU for Pools.

max.epool is designed to maintain the indoor climate parameters (Temperature and Relative Humidity) in covered swimming pools.

  • Much higher dehumidification capacity compared to the classical systems
  • Lower operating (energy) costs compared to the classical systems
  • More compact design
  • Lower refrigerant content compared to the classical systems

Energy Efficiency

Every swimming pool has to offer optimal microclimate conditions for its visitors. The high relative humidity and condensation in the rooms and especially in the halls of the covered swimming pools reduces significantly the comfort and, at the same time, leads to damaging of the building structure and the equipment within it.

That’s why swimming pools consume disproportionately large amounts of energy compared to dry buildings.With the concept solution of Damvent for precise control of the microclimate in the covered swimming pools max.e-pool, these negative processes will be minimized and will reach the optimal comfort for visitors.

SCOP

A conventional air-cooled heat pump uses the ambient air for the evaporation process, and during the winter, this air can reach temperatures of -10°C, -15°C or even -20°C. Extracting heat from the ambient air is an inefficient process. In comparison, max.e-pool uses the extract air from within the room. Under normal conditions, this air ranges in temperatures from 20÷24°C. Firstly, 60÷65% of the heat is recovered in the plate heat exchanger, and then at a temperature between 4÷10°C, the air enters the evaporator of the heat pump, thus recovering the other 30÷35%.

Using this method, we achieve a COP system of 10 and avoid frost formation on the evaporator (which commonly occurs in all conventional heat pumps).

According to EN14825, the highest Energy Efficiency Class for Heat Pumps is A+++ with a SCOP=3.75 (high temperature) -4.38 (low temperature).

With a SCOP=3.8÷6.5 (of the refrigerant circuit) and a COPnet of the whole system SCOPnet= 5÷15, max.e is far ahead of the competition.

SEAI Grants Available

Heat Pump Grant for Business:

SEAI offer up to 30% towards cost of a heat pump retrofit for your business up to a value of €100,000.

Air Handling Units for Business, Heat Recovery and Upgrade Grant:

This grant covers upgrading older fans with high-efficiency fan technology (like EC fans) and adding heat recovery. provides funding of up to 30% to replace or upgrade your existing air handling plant up to the value of €25,000.

 

 

From Specification to Installation

Keane Environmental can support you throughout your pool heating upgrade. We can introduce you to one of our SEAI registered engineering partners, who can assess your existing system, provide the technical specification and manage the installation of your new Max.e.pool system. This gives you a coordinated route from your existing equipment through to a more efficient pool heating and ventilation solution.

 

 

 

Reduce Your Carbon Tax

ETS2 will apply across Europe to all fossil heating fuels including gas.  Because Ireland’s national carbon tax is already legally scheduled to rise higher than the projected EU ETS2 prices, the government has negotiated an exemption meaning your carbon tax rate will follow the Irish government’s legislated schedule:

  • 2026 Rate: €71.00 per tonne of CO₂.
  • 2027 Rate: Increases to €78.50 per tonne of CO₂.
  • 2028 Rate: Increases to €86.00 per tonne of CO₂.
  • 2030 Target: Reaches €100.00 per tonne of CO₂

Swimming pools use 5 – 10 times more energy per square meter than an average office space and the majority of that is used to heat the water. And that means that customers paying €350,000 for gas could be paying €100,000 in carbon tax by 2030.
