Conventional pool pumps use the same high pump speed regardless of the task assigned, even though filtration, the number one task of a pool pump, requires one-half the speed (using one-eighth the power) of pool vacuuming. Variable speed pool pumps deliver the right speed for different tasks, using much less energy.
Variable speed pool pumps:
- Use up to 70% less energy than standard pool pumps
- Save you up to $350 per year in energy bills
- Provide a return on investment in less than two years
- Reduce the energy required for filtration, cleaning, and circulation of swimming pool water
- Have a longer useful life
Is it Time to Take the Plunge?
Your pool pump may show these warning signs of wearing out and wasting energy:
- Seems less powerful than in the past
- Occasionally gets hot and shuts off
- Won't start or starts slowly
