What Is a Variable-Speed Pump?

A variable-speed pool pump can run its motor at different speeds to suit different circulation tasks.

How It Works

The controller changes motor speed rather than operating at only one fixed speed. Lower speed usually produces less flow in the same system. Required flow depends on the equipment and task; a universal speed or runtime cannot be prescribed from this definition.
