The installation of high-efficiency motors can save pool owners energy and money.
Multiple-speed, variable-speed and variable-flow pumps allow a pool’s filtration system to operate at lower speeds. Systems with integrated speed control and built-in time clocks that allow the system to run at pre-set low-flow or low-speed settings also offer substantial energy savings.
Multiple speed pumps can save up to 30 percent versus single speed pumps, while variable speed and variable flow pumps can save as much as 90 percent.
