The GulfStream family of Super-Quiet, High Efficiency Heat Pumps are AHRI Certified. What is AHRI, who are they? AHRI stands for the Air Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute. This institute operates to standardize the testing and performance data for all heat pumps. Originally, AHRI covered only the Air Conditioning industry.
As you know, there are very strict standards and performance requirements for the Air Conditioning Industry. Seer Ratings and Performance data must be factual, accurate and verified. The Heat Pump Industry is a new industry that was not governed or standardized by ANY group, institutes or standards. This meant that manufacturers could report any numbers they wanted to. There was no law or standard requiring them to perform standard tests or answer to any higher authority.Thats not good news to the consumer thats you! You were basically being asked to trust the numbers that manufacturers decided to publish. The news for consumers has now changed to GOOD NEWS! Because the heat pump industry has now fallen under the wing of AHRI, and AHRI strictly monitors the data reported on heat pump manufacturers. They not only monitor and verify the data, they actually perform the test on units for ALMOST all the heat pump manufacturers.
AHRI Information is Available to You Online. You can access the AHRI certification yourself on their website and look at all the data, performance test results and all detailed specs directly at the AHRI website. What Does AHRI Test For? When investigating various heat pump models, the first two things everyone wants to know are, What are the BTUs and COPs? These specs, BTUs and COPs are derived by testing the heaters performance based on various temperatures and achieving a specific water/pool temperature of 80 degrees.The heat pump is required to perform under certain weather and temp conditions. Test 1, the number most people are familiar with, or size by tests a heat pump under these conditions: the heater is tested in an 80 degree, outside air temperature. The humidity is set at 80% and the heater then performs to reach 80 degrees pool water temperature. When it does, BTUs and COPs are then recorded as, for example, 110,000 BTUs and a 6.4 COP. This is the number MOST people refer to when discussing heater size.
This test however is not an AHRI test number. This is whats known as the 80/80/80 test. AHRI wants performance data based on COLDER temperatures and LOWER humidty. Two things that help make the heater run. AHRI 1160 Tests the unit in an 80 degree environment, but drops the humidity to 63% requiring the heat pump to work harder at gaining pool heat.The unit must then achieve 80 degree pool water. In that environment, and at that pool temp, BTUs and COPs are reported again.
