The single most valuable investment you can make in your pool. Most pool owners are shocked when they learn how much a pool pump can cost to operate, because it isn't itemized on their electric bill. But, a single-speed or two-speed pump can consume as much energy as all other home appliances combined - often costing more than $1,000 per year! IntelliPro VS-3050 can typically cut energy use by 30% to 90%. Two technology innovations are responsible for this remarkable list of performance improvements. 1. Exclusive, advanced motor technology First, IntelliPro employs exclusive permanent magnet motors
(used in hybrid cars) that provide a typical "base savings" of
30% over any pump with a traditional induction motor. 2. Onboard intelligence with variable drive Second, IntelliPro includes a variable speed capability, along with digital controls and proprietary software that allow custom programming of optimum pump speeds for specific tasks - filtering, heating, cleaning, spa jets, waterfalls, etc. There are four individual, adjustable speed settings at your command. For virtually all applications, the optimum speed will be lower than the pre-set, unchangeable speed of older pumps. Using slower speeds takes advantage of a fundamental pump law: slower is far more efficient. In fact, when pump speeds are reduced by half, energy consumption drops to one-eighth of what was previously used. The result is additional savings - potentially up to 90% compared to even so-called high efficiency single-speed, two-speed and multi-speed pumps. These combined innovations result in a pump that is typically operating at an average of just 1/10th of a horsepower, using approximately 100 watts of energy - about the same as an ordinary light bulb. While that's impressive, wait until you see the savings potential. More unique performance advantages: The quietest available. The exclusive permanent magnet motor so critical for energy savings is also a totally enclosed fan cooled (TEFC) design. This combination is responsible for IntelliPro being the quietest pump you can install. At typical speeds you can barely hear it operating. A new standard for service life. IntelliPro's advanced motor produces far less heat and vibration than a traditional induction motor. This means less stress and wear on pump components. It also eases the strain on other equipment. IntelliPro also features built-in diagnostics that protect it from the most common causes of premature pump failure - overheating, freezing and voltage irregularities. Combined, these features promise remarkably long, trouble-free service life to further increase your return on investment. Adjustability maintains efficiency as things change. Because IntelliPro allows you to change pump speeds you can add equipment and features or change them without concern about losing your dramatic energy savings. Just push a button to set the new, optimum speed to operate with the lowest energy use. Vary the sights and sounds of your poolscape. IntelliPro also gives you the unique ability to alter the performance of your water features. Add height to deck jets or fountains. Increase or decrease the fl ow to waterfalls or a vanishing edge. Just push a button to adjust as you desire. No
other pump allows you to change your poolside atmosphere. Adding it all up Enjoy tremendous cost savings. Virtually eliminate pump noise. Achieve greater value as a result of longer pump life. Change or add equipment without concern about pump performance or efficiency. Manage the sights and sounds of your backyard with your pump. IntelliPro VS-3050 may sound too good to be true. But, this revolutionary product is already delivering all of these unique benefits in thousands of pools. And that’s why it is, in fact, the single best investment you can make in your pool.
