Pool pump efficiency is important to pool owners and environmentalists alike.
And here are a couple of reasons why.
Learning to control a pump can be confusing at first, but the directions are generally pretty intuitive.
You can have your pool technician program it for you initially, and then change it later if you choose to.
And typically the higher end models will already have installed presets available.
Switching from single-speed to variable speed pumps has been saving pool owners lots of cash.
A high-end model, such as the Intelliflo, has actually been reported to save anywhere from forty to ninety percent on energy costs.
With energy costs on a steady climb, you can expect those savings to climb compared to those who don't upgrade.
Hayward, Pentair, and Jandy provide some of the most efficient, durable, and quiet variable speed pool motors available.
And yes, they are expensive.
You pay a premium price for a premium product.
Purchasing a pump, and then installing it, can cost anywhere from one to two thousand dollars.
You have to factor in the cost of a new controller, and what your pool guy will charge you to set it up.
The majority of pool owners are switching to variable speed pumps for a reason.
And the ones who are upgrading are recommending these same pumps to their friends.
Tired of your loud pump burning through electricity, then get a variable speed pool pump today.
And here are a couple of reasons why.
- Pools consume the majority of residential power.
Most of this power is being run through the pools' pumps and filtration systems.
Before the rise of energy efficient variable speed pool pumps, single speed pumps were costing customers around $1200 a year. - Efficient pumps aren't as loud.
Unlike their single speed predecessors, variable speed pool pumps are very quiet.
You can run them at night without having to hear them, when energy costs are at their lowest. - Power companies across the nation are offering rebates (usually $200) to customers who are making the switch This money, combined with the annual savings, will help a pump pay for itself in a few short years.
I mean seriously, how good is a pump when the power company says it will give you cash just to use it. - Efficient pool pumps also preserve pool equipment longer.
- Variable speed pump controllers provide more versatility, with some models capable of handling pump and saltwater duties.
