100,000 L	47-53 hours	1.5-2°C
120,000 L	57-65 hours	1.3-1.7°C

*Based on 28kW average output under typical conditions (ambient 20°C, water 22°C)

Heating from 20°C to 28°C (8°C rise)

Pool Volume	Approximate Time*	Typical Scenario
60,000 L	17-20 hours	Early season heating
80,000 L	23-27 hours	Weekend pool preparation
100,000 L	29-33 hours	Spring pool opening

Daily running time for temperature maintenance (once heated): 4-8 hours depending on weather conditions, pool cover usage, and desired temperature.

⚠️ Important Disclaimer: Heat-up times are estimates based on ideal conditions. Actual performance varies based on ambient temperature, humidity, wind, pool insulation, cover usage, and heat loss. These calculations use the formula: Time (hours) = (Volume in m³ × Temperature Rise °C × 1.16) ÷ Heat Pump kW Rating.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the vertical design affect performance compared to horizontal models?

The vertical configuration offers identical heating performance to horizontal models with the same specifications. The primary difference is the physical footprint – the vertical design reduces floor space requirements by approximately 60% while utilizing vertical space. Heat exchange efficiency, refrigerant circulation, and output remain unchanged. This makes it perfect for installations where space is limited but performance cannot be compromised.

2. What size pool is this 32kW heat pump suitable for?

The InverX 32kW is ideally suited for pools between 60,000 to 100,000 litres for optimal performance. It can handle pools up to 120,000 litres, though heat-up times will be longer. For residential pools, this typically translates to:

• Large residential pools (8m x 4m x 1.5m avg depth) = ~80,000L ✅
• Extra-large residential pools (10m x 5m x 1.6m) = ~110,000L ✅
• Small commercial facilities up to 120,000L ✅

3. How loud is the heat pump with TurboSilence technology?

The InverX operates at approximately 52 dB(A) at 10 meters distance – comparable to a quiet conversation or gentle rainfall. This represents a significant improvement over traditional heat pumps of similar capacity, which typically operate at 58-65 dB(A). The TurboSilence technology dynamically adjusts operation to minimize noise while maintaining performance, making it suitable for residential neighborhoods and noise-sensitive environments.

4. Can I control the heat pump when I’m away from home?

Yes! The integrated WiFi module and smartphone app allow complete remote control from anywhere with internet access. You can monitor pool temperature, adjust settings, create schedules, track energy usage, and receive alerts – all from your phone or tablet. This is perfect for preparing your pool before arriving home or managing heating while on vacation.

5. What’s the difference between this and a standard (non-inverter) heat pump?

Inverter technology provides several critical advantages:

Efficiency: Inverter units adjust compressor speed continuously rather than cycling on/off, resulting in 25-40% better efficiency and lower running costs.

Comfort: Maintains more consistent water temperature without fluctuations.

Noise: Variable speed operation is significantly quieter than fixed-speed units.

Longevity: Reduced start/stop cycles mean less mechanical stress and longer lifespan.

Performance: TurboSilence technology adapts output to conditions for optimal performance across all temperatures.

6. How quickly will this heat pump raise my pool temperature?

Heat-up time depends on several factors including pool volume, current temperature, desired temperature, ambient conditions, and whether you use a pool cover. As a general guide for an 80,000L pool:

• 15°C to 28°C (13° rise): Approximately 38-43 hours
• 20°C to 28°C (8° rise): Approximately 23-27 hours
• Maintenance heating: 4-8 hours daily running time

Using a pool cover can reduce heat-up time by 40-60% and dramatically reduce daily running costs.

7. What’s the minimum ambient temperature this heat pump can operate in?

The InverX 32kW can operate down to -10°C ambient temperature, though efficiency decreases as temperatures drop. Optimal efficiency occurs between 15-35°C ambient. The unit features intelligent defrost cycles to maintain performance in cold conditions. For spring/autumn swimming season extension in the UK (typically 5-20°C ambient), the unit performs excellently with good heating output.

8. Do I need single-phase or three-phase power for this unit?

This is the single-phase version (1 Phase), requiring standard residential 220-240V/50Hz power supply. You’ll need a dedicated circuit with appropriate circuit breaker (minimum 40A recommended) and RCD protection. While single-phase power is standard in UK homes, professional electrical assessment is recommended to ensure your supply can handle the load, particularly if you have other high-demand appliances.

9. How much does it cost to run compared to gas or electric heating?

The InverX is dramatically more economical than traditional heating methods:

For an 80,000L pool (season cost):

• InverX Heat Pump: £470-720/season
• Gas Heater: £1,400-2,100/season (3-4x more expensive)
• Electric Heater: £2,400-3,200/season (5-6x more expensive)

The heat pump achieves these savings by extracting ambient heat from the air rather than generating heat through combustion or electrical resistance. Over a 10-year lifespan, you could save £15,000-25,000 compared to traditional heating methods.

10. What maintenance does the InverX require?

Maintenance is minimal but important for longevity:

Monthly:

• Visual inspection for debris or obstructions
• Check water flow and filter cleanliness

Seasonally (2-4 times per year):

• Clean hexagonal honeycomb coil fins with soft brush/water
• Inspect electrical connections
• Check refrigerant pressure (professional)
• Verify correct water chemistry (prevents titanium corrosion)

Annually:

• Professional service inspection
• Refrigerant check and top-up if needed
• Electrical connection tightness check
• Overall system performance assessment

Winterization (if closing pool):

• Drain water from heat exchanger
• Cover unit or move to protected location if possible
• Disconnect power supply

11. Is professional installation required?

Yes, professional installation is strongly recommended for several reasons:

1. Electrical Work: Requires dedicated circuit installation and compliance with electrical regulations – must be performed by certified electrician
2. Plumbing Integration: Proper placement in pool circulation system is critical for performance
3. Warranty Coverage: Most warranties require professional installation
4. Optimal Performance: Correct sizing, placement, and setup ensure maximum efficiency
5. Safety Compliance: Must meet local building codes and safety standards

While experienced tradespeople may handle installation, using a qualified pool heat pump installer ensures optimal results and peace of mind.

12. How does the hexagon honeycomb design improve performance?

The patented hexagonal structure provides multiple advantages:

• 25% more surface area for heat exchange vs. flat designs
• Optimized airflow with reduced resistance and turbulence
• Superior structural strength through distributed stress patterns
• Enhanced durability against impact and vibration
• Better efficiency across all operating conditions
• Distinctive aesthetics for visible installations

This biomimetic design (inspired by nature’s honeycomb) represents a significant engineering advancement in heat pump technology.
