Variable speed pumps

As a reminder, a variable speed pump, unlike a traditional pump, adapts its operating speed according to the use of the pool and its equipment. Some have pre-established programmes that can be adjusted.

The pool pump is one of the most energy-intensive items in the household (the equivalent of 7 refrigerators on average). Using a variable speed pump can save up to 90% of energy.
Variable speed pumps offer many advantages
- Significant energy savings due to lower kW consumption
- Optimisation of filtration and therefore savings on treatment products
- Noise reduction (less than 40 dB at low speed, corresponding to a quiet room)
- Initial investment pays for itself in a few years (Return on investment is achieved in 3 seasons maximum)
- Slower filtration ensuring optimised water quality (At slower speeds the filter and automatic treatment work better)
- Adaptation to the needs in real time and according to its equipment
- Longer pump life (used at low speed, less wear)
- Ideal for renovation
