Swimming Pool Filtration Pumps and Motors
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 and multifamily 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.
