Two key technology innovations drive energy savings

First, IntelliFlo® VS-3050 uses an exclusive permanent magnet motor (used in hybrid cars) that is fundamentally more energy efficient and typically accounts for “base energy savings” of 30%.

Next, the IntelliFlo® VS-3050 is a unique variable speed pump with four selectable pre-set speeds in the control panel. This allows customized programming of optimum pump speeds for specific tasks – filtering, heating, cleaning, spa jets, waterfalls, etc.

Using slower speeds takes advantage of a fundamental pump law: by going slower, power consumption is reduced. The result is additional savings…. Potentially up to 90% compared to even so-called high efficiency single-speed or twospeed pumps.

Other advantages add more value

VERSATILE: Only one pump for several applications (filtration, cleaning, heating, water falls, etc.) maximizing your storage space and decreasing stock

PROVEN TECHNOLOGY: More than 80.000 units sold in the US over the last 3 years
ENERGY SAVING: Lower electricity bill and fast payback (1-3 years)
WATER TREATMENT SAVING: Flow rate and motor performance perfectly adapted to the installation and for a perfect flow through the filter = less and shorter filter backwashes = better water maintenance and minor lose of chemical products and filter media
ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY: Extremely low operation noise , high indirect impact in the reduction of CO2 emissions and direct impact in the reduction of chemicals disposed (backwash time)
SCALABLE: Open possibilities to upgrade the pool system
EASE OF INSTALLATION: Installed as any other pump, little hydraulic sizing required and an easy control panel to set up the pump
EASE OF SERVICE: One pump can replace any pump in the field, always the right stock!
LOW NOISE LEVEL: Unnoticed when operating, quiet as a human whisper!
LONGER LIFE EQUIPMENT: The motor protects itself from damage by adjusting for voltage variations as well as reducing its speed to prevent motor overheating
WARRANTY 3 years
