Variable Speed. Invariably Smart.

A pool is only as good as its pump. And to give you total control over your pump’s speed, Pentair introduced variable speed technology to the pool industry. Lower speeds are better for equipment longevity, energy savings, and water quality. Higher speeds come into play when you need more performance or flow.

*Savings based on variable speed pump compared to a single-speed pump running 12 hours per day at an average of $0.16 per kWh In a 20,000-gallon pool. Actual savings may vary based on local utility rates, pool size, pump run time, pump horsepower, pump rpm, plumbing size and length, pump model, service factor and other hydraulic factors. Individual Weighted Energy Factor (WEF) scores and savings may vary by model.
