Product details

The Glacier Pool Coolers GPC-25 is a pool chiller for pools under 20,000 gallons. It cools with a fan and the pool's own water: no refrigerant, no heat exchange and no gas. Glacier says its residential units bring the water down an average of 10 to 15 degrees F over an overnight run of 12 to 14 hours.

How it cools

Pool water turns a set of spray arms inside the cabinet while the fan draws air up through it, and the heat leaves with the air. The cooled water gathers in a basin, and a small pump on a float switch returns it to the pool every two to three minutes. It does its work at night. By Glacier's own guide a pool will not lose degrees in daylight, so the unit runs with the pump after dark and holds the temperature by day.

Choosing the size

Glacier sizes its residential chillers on gallons: the GPC-25 for pools under 20,000, the GPC-210 for pools under 30,000 and the GPC-215 for pools under 45,000. Its figures are averages, and it says so: full sun, an exposed site, dark plaster and a deep pool all add to the heat the unit has to carry off.

Before it is installed

A chiller is not plumbed like a heater. The cooled water goes to the suction side of the pool pump or to a line of its own, and a unit piped the way a heater is will not cool the pool. The GPC-25 wants a 2 by 2 ft pad in open air, 1-1/2 inch connections, about 30 GPM and a 110/115 V circuit for its 8.5 A. It stands 63 inches high and 34 wide and weighs 125 lb dry. Glacier's operation guide is under Downloads on this page.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

How does the Glacier GPC-25 pool chiller work?
With a fan and the pool's own water, and no refrigerant. Water from the pool turns spray arms inside the unit, the fan pulls air up through the falling water to carry the heat off, and the cooled water collects in a basin. A small pump on a float switch sends it back to the pool in cycles of two to three minutes.
How many degrees will a Glacier GPC-25 cool a pool?
Glacier says its residential units average 10 to 15 degrees F on an overnight run of 12 to 14 hours, and that it is not a guarantee: sun, exposure, dark plaster and depth all change it. It cools at night. Glacier's guide says a pool will not drop during daylight hours.
What size pool is the Glacier GPC-25 for?
Pools under 20,000 gallons, by Glacier. The GPC-210 is for pools under 30,000 and the GPC-215 for pools under 45,000.
Is a pool cooler the same thing as a pool chiller?
For this unit, yes. Glacier calls the company and the product Pool Coolers and describes them as pool chillers. It is a fan chiller, which is a different machine from a heat pump that also cools.
Is the Glacier GPC-25 plumbed like a pool heater?
No. Glacier's guide says the cold water leaving the unit goes to the suction side of the pool pump, or to a line of its own, and that a unit plumbed like a heater will not cool the pool. It needs open air around it, a 2 by 2 ft pad, 1-1/2 inch connections and about 30 GPM.
What power does the Glacier GPC-25 need?
110/115 V, single phase, drawing 8.5 A, on a 20 A fuse.
