Highly recommend!
Communication was excellent from advice before ordering to delivery to after sales.
We paid to have them build the trampolene and that was very efficient and on time.
Overall very pleased with the company and would certainly be buying from them again.
Steven Rae
Excellent Service
I had wanted to upgrade our swimming pool this year (I seem to have predicted our recent heatwave!), but the larger pool that I wanted was sold out everywhere. I managed to find one at Happy Hideouts and so after a bit of digging contacted Warren on whatsapp to ask when it would be able to be delivered if I ordered it. Warren said it would only take a couple of days as it was in stock. So I took the plunge and ordered it. I got updates on the order and delivery dates, and then 2 days later it arrived, exactly as detailed on their website. We have now been using it for 2 weeks in this heatwave and it is a godsend for my 4 kids (and all their mates!). Well done Happy Hideouts, you have made some kids very happy.
Lee Humphrey
Great service
Not knowing anything about pools,great help and advice,all items received in great condition and kept informed during the transit of the pool,and a help line if any problems occur,which they didn't, fully recommended them
Hannah Collings
Excellent
The pool is superb for all of the family, we have upsized from small circular to this beast!! Brilliant. It is already warm enough for the less brave and the children love it.
Malgorzata M.
Top service
I was after a model that is currently not available in UK. Quick whatsapp exchange and 3 days later I got a quote for importing it for me from EU. Absolutely fantastic. I was kept updated about progress and delivery was scheduled for the day that suited me best.
Would highly recommend 👌

Great service from start to finish, delivery and installation. Highy reccomend.
Craig Haycock
Outstanding Service
Warren was great from start to finish.
I contacted Happy Hideouts to double-check the availability of the Intex Ultra XTR 16' x 28" swimming pool, as other sites were claiming to have it in stock when they didn't. Warren confirmed he had it, let me arrange a collection, and even had it ready and waiting when I arrived.
Thanks to his fantastic, personal service, I got the pool up and filled just in time for the hot weather and May half-term! It’s rare to find a business owner so helpful and genuine. Happy Hideouts is definitely on my preferred sellers list now. Thank you, Warren!
Tony D.
Product is good and the seller is great
The product is good. The kids really love it. It helps me to be more active too. Happy Hideouts were really responsive and great to deal with.
Lynn
Great product and service
Great communication from Warren, we had a wee issue with our delivery which was sorted immediately! Really happy with the trampoline, it’s great quality, I am sure we will get lots of years of run out of it, our little girl loves it!!
Shirrin
Perfect for older kids and adults.
Ordered this playbase to meet the needs of my growing autistic 14 year-old who still likes to swing. As well as my older son who likes to work out. Really great service received and the whole thing was ordered and installed in 2 weeks.
Tim Buley
Great
Very helpful advice from Warren to help choose the right trampoline. Very happy with our choice (and so is our son!)
Caroline Wright
Highly recommended rebounder for mum and kids
Fabulous customer service with a really personal touch. The rebounder arrived the day after purchase. It’s nicely packaged and easy to set up. I didn’t do it as my 11 year old daughter did it for me in 10 minutes. Her top tip is to put on cycling gloves when attaching the last few.
It is a brilliant size. I’m 5 ft 6 and there’s ample space to feel confident you won’t crash on the edge. Fabulous for exercise and lymph drainage. My legs feel really good post bounce.
It arrived at the beginning of the Easter hols and my 11 and 13 year old have barely left it alone. They love it and are far more adventurous on it than I am.
It looks great and is a quality rebounder. We had some gym mats to hand which we put underneath it. I’m not sure if we needed to but it’s on a newly tiled floor so we took no chances.
Great value, especially for the quality. I didn’t purchase a handle but may get one down the line as they can be purchased separately.
Matthew Craker
Berg medium swing set
Good service and sturdy product. We paid for the installation as well and the team did a good job of this as well
Teifion Sussex
Amazing service and awesome trampoline! 🙌✨
As a Motion capture artist, I needed something strong and reliable to train on, and Acon has always been one of the go-to manufacturers for intensive practice! 😎
Warren was a pleasure to talk to with quick and friendly responses throughout the whole order process. Delivery was super fast, and everything arrived exactly as expected. 🙌
The quality is amazing, and it's very reassuring to own such a strong and robust trampoline, which will survive my explosive line of work haha! 🎬🥷👊🕷️🕸️
Big thanks to Warren, and thanks so much for such great service and customer care! 😁✨

Is the Thermotec Inverter Heat Pump Really Worth It? Here’s Why It Saves Energy and Keeps Running Costs Lower.
Choosing a Thermotec inverter heat pump is all about making pool heating more efficient and more manageable over time. Unlike older-style systems that simply switch on and off at full power, inverter technology allows the heat pump to adjust its output depending on demand. That helps maintain a steadier water temperature while using energy more sensibly, which is exactly what you want when you’re trying to keep the pool swim-ready without spending a fortune.
For families who want to make the most of their pool across more of the season, that makes a real difference. You’re not just heating water for the odd sunny afternoon — you’re creating a setup that feels more practical for regular use. Lower running costs, more stable performance and less waste all add up to a much better long-term investment than a basic fixed-speed unit.
What’s included with the Thermotec Inverter Pro Pool Heat Pump?
✓ Full inverter technology for efficient pool heating
✓ Heating and cooling functions for year-round use
✓ Free Wi-Fi control for easier temperature management
✓ Mitsubishi inverter compressor for reliable performance
✓ Quiet brushless DC fan motor
✓ Operates in air temperatures down to -15°C
✓ Lockable touch screen control panel
✓ Durable titanium heat exchanger
✓ Automatic hot gas defrost system
✓ Safe for chlorine and saltwater pools
✓ 3-year parts and labour warranty
✓ 5-year compressor and heat exchanger warranty
What Makes the Thermotec Inverter Pro Such a Smart Upgrade? Here’s Why It Delivers Quieter Heating and Easier Everyday Use.
The Thermotec Inverter Pro range stands out because it offers more than simple heating power. It’s built to make pool ownership feel easier. With inverter-driven performance, modern controls and quieter operation, it’s a smarter choice for households that want something efficient but also pleasant to live with. If your pool sits near the house, patio or garden seating area, quieter running is one of those features you’ll appreciate very quickly.
It also helps that the range includes practical features like WiFi control, so managing the temperature feels far less fiddly. Rather than trekking outside every time you want to check or adjust the settings, you get a much more convenient way to stay in control. Add in the durable titanium heat exchanger and broad model range, and it’s clear this is designed for proper day-to-day use rather than just looking good on a spec sheet.
Is the Thermotec Inverter Pro Price Worth Paying? Here’s Why the Efficiency and Features Make It a Strong Long-Term Investment.
The thermotec inverter pro price reflects the fact that this is a premium bit of pool equipment, but that’s exactly why the features matter. A cheaper heat pump can look tempting at first, but if it’s noisier, less efficient and harder to manage, it may end up costing more in both running costs and frustration. The Thermotec Inverter Pro range is designed to give you stronger long-term value through better efficiency, easier control and a build that’s made to cope with regular use.
When you’re spending good money on a pool heat pump, you want it to feel worthwhile every time you use it. This range offers that extra reassurance through its smart controls, efficient inverter technology and durable materials suited to chlorine and saltwater pools alike. It’s the sort of investment that makes sense for pool owners who want to use their pool more often, extend the season, and avoid the usual faff that comes with lower-quality equipment.
You can also compare Thermotec pool heat pumps across the full range, including Mini, Neo, Inverter Pro and Inverter Edge models. For a more detailed breakdown, see our Thermotec Mini vs Neo vs Inverter Pro vs Inverter Edge comparison.
What size Thermotec Inverter Pro do I need for my pool?
If you want the short answer, the right Thermotec heat pump size depends on your pool volume, whether the pool is covered, how warm you want the water, and how much of the season you want to use it. Because this page combines both horizontal models from 9kW to 24kW and vertical models from 29kW to 34kW, the sensible first step is to work out your pool volume and then match it to the right part of the range.
The sizing guide below is based on a covered swimming pool. If your pool is uncovered, very exposed to wind, or you want stronger heating earlier and later in the season, it is usually better to size up rather than cut things too fine and spend the summer quietly annoyed.
| Model | kW | Recommended Max Pool Volume | Absolute Max Pool Volume |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 9kW | 9kW | 30m³ | 45m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 12kW | 12kW | 40m³ | 60m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 17kW | 17kW | 50m³ | 75m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 20kW | 19.5kW | 65m³ | 95m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 24kW | 24.2kW | 75m³ | 120m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Vertical 29kW | 28.6kW | 93m³ | 116m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Vertical 34kW | 34kW | 109m³ | 136m³ |
| Thermotec Inverter Vertical 34kW (3 Phase) | 34kW | 109m³ | 136m³ |
Please note: the recommended maximum volume is the sensible target for efficient everyday heating. The absolute maximum volume is more of an upper limit, and in real life a covered pool will generally perform better if you size to the recommended figure rather than the absolute one.
How to work out your pool volume
Before choosing a Thermotec Inverter Pro, it helps to know your pool volume in cubic metres (m³). It is not the most thrilling bit of pool ownership, admittedly, but it does make choosing the right heat pump much easier and saves a good deal of second-guessing later.
| Pool shape | How to calculate volume |
| Rectangular pool | Length × Width × Average Depth = Pool volume in m³ |
| Round pool | Radius × Radius × 3.14 × Average Depth = Pool volume in m³ |
| Oval pool | Length × Width × Average Depth × 0.89 = Pool volume in m³ |
Example: if your pool is 7m long, 3.5m wide and has an average depth of 1.3m, the volume would be 7 × 3.5 × 1.3 = 31.85m³.
Koi pond sizing guide
If you are using a Thermotec Inverter Pro for a koi pond heated all year round, with a winter temperature of around 12°C and a summer temperature of around 20 to 22°C, the guide below is the more relevant one. This assumes the pond is covered in winter, which is rather important if you would prefer not to heat the outdoors for free.
| Model | Max Pond Volume |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 9kW | 4500 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 12kW | 6000 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 17kW | 7500 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 19.5kW | 9600 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Horizontal 24kW | 11,600 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Vertical 29kW | 13,800 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Vertical 34kW | 19,900 gallons |
| Thermotec Inverter Vertical 34kW (3 Phase) | 19,900 gallons |
What affects the right heat pump size?
Pool volume is the starting point, but it is not the whole story. The right size also depends on whether you use a cover, how exposed the pool is to wind, your target water temperature, and whether you want mainly peak summer use or a longer season. If the pool is uncovered or particularly exposed, it is usually worth stepping up in output rather than going right to the edge of what might theoretically cope.
All pools and ponds should ideally be covered to reduce heat loss and keep running costs sensible. For outside pools, a solar cover makes a real difference. For indoor pools, a proper thermal blanket is the better choice. Covering the water for most of the day helps preserve heat, reduce evaporation and stop your heat pump from having to work harder than necessary.
Horizontal vs vertical Thermotec Inverter Pro models
The horizontal Thermotec Inverter Pro models are generally the natural choice for most domestic pool setups in the 9kW to 24kW range. The vertical models come into their own when you need more output, more heating support, or you are dealing with a much larger pool and want a more serious bit of kit. So if your pool is small to mid-sized, you will usually be looking at the horizontal range first. If it is very large or more demanding, the vertical models are where things start to make more sense.
