AHRI 1160 (I-P) and 1161 (SI): Performance Rating of Heat Pump Pool Heaters

The purpose of AHRI 1160 and AHRI 1161 is to establish for Heat Pump Pool Heaters: Definitions; classifications; test requirements; rating requirements; minimum data requirements for Published Ratings; operating requirements; marking and nameplate data; and conformance conditions.

This standard applies to the rating and testing of complete factory-made Heat Pump Pool Heaters as defined in Section 3.2.2.

Energy Source

This standard applies only to air-source, electrically driven, mechanical compression type systems.
