Fairland InverX IXR80 Swimming Pool Heat Pump – 27.5kW (Turbo Boost to 32kW) | Commercial-Grade Single Phase Inverter

Transform your pool into a year-round oasis. 🌊 The Fairland InverX IXR80 delivers professional-grade heating with intelligent inverter technology that adapts to your needs – whether you want rapid heating for weekend guests or ultra-efficient operation for extended seasons.

Why Pool Owners Choose the InverX IXR80

Swim Longer, Spend Less ⚡
With COP ratings reaching an exceptional 16.0 at optimal conditions, this heat pump delivers up to £16 worth of heat for every £1 of electricity consumed. That’s intelligent heating that protects both your comfort and your wallet.

Three Intelligent Modes, One Perfect Temperature 🎯

🚀 Turbo Mode (32kW) – Need your pool party-ready fast? Turbo delivers 120% heating capacity for rapid temperature rise. Perfect for weekend heating or catching up after cold snaps.

🧠 Smart Mode (27.5kW) – The sweet spot. Automatically optimizes output between 20-100% based on ambient conditions, maximizing efficiency while maintaining your perfect temperature. Ideal for daily use.

🌙 Silence Mode (60% output) – Whisper-quiet overnight heating at just 39.5dB – quieter than normal conversation. Let it work while you sleep without disturbing neighbours.

Perfect For Your Pool

Recommended Pool Volumes: 65m³ to 120m³ (14,000 to 26,000 gallons)

Whether you have a large family pool, swim spa, or light commercial facility, the IXR80 provides consistent, reliable heating. Its commercial-grade construction handles demanding daily use while remaining efficient enough for residential electricity costs.

Real-World Applications:

• 🏡 Large residential pools (10m x 5m+)
• 🏊 Swim spas and training pools
• 🏨 Guest house and B&B pools
• 🏋️ Fitness center pools
• 🎓 School and community pools

All-Weather Performance That Never Quits

Operating Range: -15°C to +43°C ambient temperature
Maximum Water Temperature: 40°C

Unlike cheaper heat pumps that struggle or fail in British weather, the InverX operates efficiently even when temperatures drop below freezing. The intelligent defrost system keeps performance strong while competitors shut down.

Performance at 15°C ambient (typical UK spring/autumn):

• Smart Mode Output: 18.0kW
• Turbo Mode Output: 21.5kW
• COP: 5.3 (£5.30 heat per £1 electricity)

Performance at 26°C ambient (summer):

• Smart Mode Output: 27.0kW
• Turbo Mode Output: 31.5kW
• COP: 7.4 (£7.40 heat per £1 electricity)

This means comfortable swimming from March through October – or year-round with proper pool covering.

Commercial-Grade Build Quality, Residential Electricity Costs

What Makes This Different: 💪

✅ True Inverter Technology
Unlike fixed-speed heat pumps that constantly cycle on/off (wasting energy and causing wear), the InverX smoothly varies from 20% to 120% output. This means:

• 30-50% lower running costs vs. fixed-speed pumps
• Dramatically longer equipment life
• More stable water temperature
• Quieter operation
• Reduced electricity demand spikes

✅ Titanium Heat Exchanger
Completely corrosion-proof and designed for 20+ years of service. Titanium won’t degrade from pool chemicals, salt, or harsh water conditions – unlike copper or stainless steel alternatives.

✅ Industrial-Grade Components
This isn’t a residential unit pretending to be commercial. Every component – from the compressor to the fan motor – is specified for continuous duty and demanding conditions.

Smart Control From Anywhere 📱

WiFi Connectivity Included – Control your pool temperature from your smartphone:

• Adjust settings remotely before you arrive home
• Monitor performance and energy use
• Set heating schedules around electricity rates
• Share control with family members
• Receive maintenance alerts

Compatible with iOS and Android via the Fairland app. Setup takes minutes with the included quick-start guide.

Industry-Leading Warranty Protection 🛡️

Your Investment, Fully Protected:

• Heat Exchanger: 7 Years
• Compressor: 7 Years
• Parts & Labour: 2 Years (12 months parts only thereafter)

This isn’t just warranty – it’s confidence. Fairland backs these units because they’re built to last, not built to be replaced.

Why Inverter Technology Matters 💡

The Problem with Traditional Heat Pumps:
Old-style fixed-speed heat pumps operate like a light switch – they’re either full-blast ON or completely OFF. This causes:

• Massive electricity demand spikes
• Temperature overshooting
• Constant wear from stop-start cycling
• Higher running costs
• Shorter equipment life
• Annoying noise every time they start

The InverX Solution:
True inverter technology works like a dimmer switch, continuously varying output from 20% to 120%. The intelligent controller monitors water and air temperature hundreds of times per minute, delivering exactly the heating needed – no more, no less.

Real-World Result: Pool owners typically save 30-50% on heating costs compared to fixed-speed pumps while enjoying more stable temperatures and quieter operation.

Seasonal Operation Guide 🌦️

Spring (March-May): Run in Smart Mode with pool cover. Expect 4-6 hours daily operation to maintain 26-28°C. Cost: approximately £3-5/day.

Summer (June-August): Minimal operation needed. Smart Mode will maintain temperature with 2-4 hours daily operation. Cost: approximately £1-3/day.

Autumn (September-November): Increase to Smart Mode with overnight Silence Mode option. Expect 6-8 hours daily. Cost: approximately £5-8/day.

Winter (December-February): Extended season swimming is possible! Turbo + Smart Mode combination with heavy-duty pool cover. Expect 8-12 hours daily for 26°C. Cost: approximately £8-15/day. Many users winterize during coldest months.

💡 Pro Tip: Using a good-quality pool cover reduces heating costs by 50-70% and is the single most important efficiency factor.

Common Questions Answered ❓

Q: Will this work with my saltwater pool?
A: Yes! The titanium heat exchanger is completely impervious to salt, making this ideal for saltwater chlorinator systems.

Q: How quickly will it heat my pool?
A: A 90m³ pool from 20°C to 28°C typically takes 24-36 hours in Turbo Mode during spring/autumn conditions. Summer heating is much faster.

Q: Can I install this myself?
A: No. Professional installation is required for safety, performance, and warranty validity. Installation typically takes 4-6 hours.

Q: What maintenance is needed?
A: Minimal! Clean the evaporator fins 1-2 times per season, check water flow annually, and winterize if you shut down for winter. No refrigerant maintenance needed.

Q: Is it noisy?
A: At 1 metre: 43-52dB (similar to a quiet conversation). At 10 metres: 23-32dB (library-quiet). Silence Mode is even quieter at 46dB.

Q: What if it gets really cold?
A: The IXR80 operates down to -15°C with automatic defrost. However, efficiency drops at very low temperatures – use Turbo Mode and ensure good water flow to prevent freezing.
