Extend comfort season after season with quiet, energy-smart heating designed for modern spas and small pools. The Balboa Clim8ZONE™ I captures ambient heat from the air and transfers it into the water through a corrosion-resistant heat exchanger, delivering steady temperature control with a fraction of the operating cost of gas or straight-electric elements. Purpose-built to integrate with Balboa control systems, it supports intelligent, automatic staging—letting the spa’s pack decide when to use the heat pump versus the electric heater for the fastest, most efficient warm-up.

Day to day, Clim8ZONE runs quietly in the background, holds your setpoint with minimal power draw, and is simple to maintain: keep airflow clear, rinse the coil seasonally, and enjoy consistent performance. A compact, weather-ready cabinet makes placement easier on patios and equipment pads, while straightforward plumbing and electrical connections speed installation for pros.
