The FibroPool FH285-i is a full-inverter pool heat pump rated at 62,000 BTU for in-ground pools up to 17,500 gallons and above-ground pools up to 27 feet round or 18x33 oval. Its DC inverter compressor varies speed instead of cycling on and off, which cuts running electricity and lets it keep heating in cooler, drier air than fixed-speed units. It works with saltwater and freshwater and uses R410a refrigerant. Against conventional on/off heat pumps it trades a higher upfront cost for quieter, steadier, more efficient operation; owners rate it well overall, though some note it needs steady airflow and proper sizing to hit its numbers.

The FibroPool FH285-i is a full DC inverter heat pump for swimming pools. It delivers 62,000 BTU of heating for in-ground pools up to 17,500 gallons. It also works with above-ground pools up to 27 feet in diameter or 18x33 feet oval pools, and with both saltwater and freshwater pools.
Variable-speed operation lets the unit adjust its heating output to the conditions. This allows it to heat pools in lower ambient temperatures and drier climates than standard fixed-speed heat pumps, and it reduces running electricity consumption while keeping high peak power. It runs on electricity with no carbon emissions or air pollution, so no propane or gas heater is needed. It uses R410a refrigerant, which is non-flammable and does not deplete ozone. A large radiator manifold handles heat exchange.
The chassis is weather-resistant, and the compact size allows flexible installation. The necessary fittings are included. A digital control panel with a display handles operation. Wi-Fi and a mobile app allow remote control, temperature adjustment and monitoring.
