2-Speed & Variable Pump Installs

Energy Saving Options – 2 Speed or Variable Speed Pumps

Slash pump energy use by up to 90%, saving hundreds per year

Standard pool pumps can consume as much energy as all other home appliances combined—often costing more than $1,000 per year!

Variable speed pumps can typically cut energy use up to 90%, generally saving up to $1,500 in utility costs annually—more where rates are higher than average.*

The new variable speed pumps use an exclusive permanent magnet motor (used in hybrid cars) in place of a traditional induction motor.

Permanent magnet motors are fundamentally more energy efficient and provide a typical “base energy savings” of 30%.

*Savings based on comparison pump running between 6 and 12 hours per day at the national average of $0.16/kWh in a 20,000 gallon pool.

Savings may vary based on plumbing size and length, pump model, service factor, flow rates and other hydraulic factors.
