I have a 1.5hp single speed motor that is probably over 5 years old and is probably reaching the end of its life expectancy. Why does a pool pump need a variable speed, the pumping conditions are constant, so what would cause the variation?

I'm replacing a pump that was installed by a previous owner. I can't read the nameplate, but it looks like a Hayward Super Pump. The motor is an A. O. Smith UST1102. The pump and filter system worked well, but would like to reduce operating costs so I'm considering the variable speed option. Would this pump work? The pool is small, 8500 gallons, with a main drain, skimmer, sand filter and three return jets. Don't know the underground pipe configuration and can't calculate head.

Hi Len, This PL1615 Variable Speed Pump would be a suitable replacement for a 1 HP Super Pump but I would suggest the PL2605 PureLine Prime Variable Speed Pump as it is a drop in replacement for the Hayward Super Pump meaning no re-plumbing. If you go with the PL1615 you will have some minor re-plumbing, nothing major but the inlet and outlet ports are not in the exact location as the Super Pump.

Hi Chuck, Yes this variable speed pump can work with an AquaLink Control System. The speeds would be programmed on the controller of the pump and then the AquaLink would be set to turn the pump on and off. For example on the AquaLink you would set the pump to turn on at 8AM and turn off at 8PM and on the controller you would set that from 8AM to 2PM the pump run at 2,220 RPM's and from 2PM to 8PM the pump would run at 3,450 RPM's. Also you can change to spa mode from the AquaLink and program the pump to run at the high speed when you switch to Spa Mode.

Lennox H. recommended a Mighty Might for re-circulation in a 450 gallon hot tub. Looking at it and most re-circulation pumps I don't find data to guarantee they will maintain the 15 GPM required to keep my Raypak 11KW spa heater running. These pump curves show 45 gpm at 1600 rpm so it would "seem" at 750 RPM (its lowest speed) it probably gets to 15 or 20 which "should" work and would give me the ability to increase speed if needed to maintain heat. Any data at 750 RPM will be appreciated.

A  Answered on 4/5/2017 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Hi Patrick, On a large pool like your 36,000 gallon pool I would suggest the PureLine Prime 2.7 HP Variable Speed Pump this pump is nice because it will allow you to dial the HP all the way up to 2.7 HP when you have demanding conditions, but for most instances you will be running at a very low HP for circulation thus saving you on your operational costs. We wrote an Article on How Much it Costs to Operate a Pool Pump which will show you how to calculate your operational costs of a Variable Speed Pump vs. an Single Speed Pump. In the example in the article a single speed 1.5 HP pumps costs $1,062 per year to operate where a Variable Speed Pump costs $496 per year to operate. These #'s do vary when you start to look at how expensive your energy costs are and how long you run your pump per year.

What is the flow rate for the 1.5hp pump? I'd like to pair this with a new (appropriately sized) de filter. Recommendations? This unit will be used to maintain an in-ground spa approx 800-1000 gallons.
 Reply

A  Answered on 4/10/2017 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Hi, To give you an accurate flow rating we would need to know your feet of head. We have a good article here on how to determine feet of head. A standard pool usually is at 30' of head which would mean this pump would output 65 GPM at 40' of head. If you are only using this for a spa then you would need to determine how many jets and how many GPM each jet requires. A good rule of thumb on spa jets is 12 GPM per jet so if you had 10 jets then you would need a pump that can output 120 GPM at the high speed. With this being said I would suggest the PureLine Prime PL2605 or PL2606 Variable Speed Pump and I would pair this with a Hayward C4030 Cartridge Filter.

A  Answered on 4/11/2017 by InyoPools Product Specialist Robert M.

Hello Mark - The timer function on the pump allows you to bypass your current timer. If you don't want to completely bypass the timer, you can connect the PL1615 to the line in terminals on your timer. This ensures the pump always has power. The salt system can stay connected to the load terminals on the timer. That way you can set the timer to turn the salt system on/off at a specified time during the operation of the pump.

How do you wire a variable speed pump to operate for both a pool and a spa. We have a timer which turns on the pump and runs the pool heater at a higher temp and changes the valve positions to direct the flow to the spa. We would probably have the pool speed set for 1750 but the spa would require a higher speed.

Hi, Joe. You can only wire a vs pump with a pool and spa setting if you're using a compatible external control. Unfortunately, this pump is not compatible with any external automated controller. This pump will have to be manually controlled.

Bought PL1615 and fittings were not exact but we finally got parts to make it work. It is doing great but I manually turn on everyday. I finally got the time set. How do you recommend we set for a schedule? Does it go for a lower speed first couple hours then higher later? Just not sure what schedule to have it on? let alone set it to do those different speeds etc.? Live in AZ.
 Reply

A  Answered on 7/30/2017 by InyoPools Product Specialist Alex V.

Jason, Every pool is different. The idea behind a variable speed is to run the pump at the lowest rpm setting. The only time you would want to run at full speed is when you are chemically treating the pool.

I’m clarifying a previous question. We’re replacing an old Jandy Stealth (JHP1.5) single speed pump, would this unit be a suitable replacement? Would there be any major modifications needed to install? Thanks again
 Reply

A  Answered on 6/26/2018 by InyoPools Product Specialist Lennox H.

Hi, Dale. This 1.5 H.P Variable Speed Pool Pump - PL1615 will not be a suitable replacement for a Jandy Stealth JHP1.5 if we're comparing performance and plumbing. However, in order to find out if this pump will be able to meet your pool needs, you will need to calculate the Total Dynamic Head (TDH) of your pool using Gauges or you Plumbing. Once you've calculated the TDH, use the PL1615 Performance Curve to determine the flow rate at the various RPM's.

In regards to the wire size for runs 0' - 25' you can use 14 AWG wire and runs above 25' we suggest 12 AWG wire.

Hi Ben, The PureLine Pure Flow variable speed pump will allow you to adjust the speed of the pump through a full range 3450 RPM's all the way down to 750 RPM. With a variable speed pump, you will see a huge decrease in your operational costs, up to 80%. It would be fine to put this pump under a deck. All the programming and timer features are done directly on the controller which is mounted on the pump. Normally you will set this once at startup and the pump will turn on and off based on the schedule you have set, there is not a remote control for this pump.

Hi Barry, you can easily get 20-30GPM of flow at a lower speed on this pump as long as you don't have too much head in your system (60 feet of head is about the max for this pump - see our guide here on How To Calculate The Amount Of Head In Your Pool).  Note that the performance of the pump (GPM) is also dependant upon the type/condition of your filter (is it clean/dirty).  See Step 5 on our guide on How to Save Money Using a Variable Speed Motor to see how to set it up to get your heater to operate properly at a lower speed so you can save up to 80% on your pump's electric requirements.
