Get a $100 Rebate

Did you know that a single speed pool pump and motor can account for up to 20% of your home’s total electrical costs? Installing a new multi-speed pump and motor can save you energy and money. Residential, multifamily, and commercial pool owners can get a $100 rebate for replacing an old, single speed pump and motor with a new qualifying multi-speed system.

Cleaner Pool Water, Smaller Energy Bill

• Save up to $477 per year; that's up to $4,770 over the 10 year estimated product lifetime*
• Energy savings of up to 1,400 kilowatthours per year**
• New pumps and motors run more quietly and can last much longer than conventional systems
• Efficient daily filtration keeps pool water much cleaner

* These savings assume that a 1.5-hp two speed pump replaces a single-speed pump.
** Savings are based on an average of the top two summer residential electric rate tiers.
