Five Top Reasons to Buy A Variable Speed Pool Pump

A variable speed pool pump offers a number of distinct advantages over a single or two speed pool pump.  For pool owners that are interested in maximum cost savings you absolutely need to consider getting a variable speed pool pump and for the following reasons.

1.       The high-quality magnet motor: the motor that comes in variable speed pool pumps is roughly the same type of motor that you would find in a reliable electric car. As a result of its platform which is built on efficiency and reliability you can get access to quite possibly the most efficient and reliable pumps in the pool industry. A motor failure with a pump is absolutely catastrophic and can cause a lot of lost time and damage to your pool with a quality motor you can avoid these inefficiencies and downtime substantially.

2.       Changes in flow rate: the ability to adjust the flow rate into your pump can help you maintain the circulation in your pool and ensure that you can actually keep it cleaner. A basic rule of thumb in pool circulation is that slower is better and this is because components have less of a chance of experiencing any friction or wear when pumps are kept running slower.

3.       Amazing efficiency benefits: because the pump can run at a slower rate or at the exact rate that it needs to keep your pool circulated and clean you can see amazing benefits when it comes to energy efficiency and for the amount of your own personal energy that you have to put into cleaning your pool and maintaining it.

4.       Much quieter: variable speed pumps are much quieter because they have to vibrate far less than other pumps.

5.       More advanced diagnostics: simple pumps just don't have any type of diagnostic or safety systems involved. With a variable speed pump you are always covered for emergencies with several failsafe’s put into place to reduce the chances of pieces falling into your pool for example or the pump staying off for too long.
