## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi, I have a 10.000 gallons pool, which pump and filter do you recommend to me? Thanks**
A: I have the earlier version of this pump on my 38,000 gallon pool and love it. It might be overkill for yours but my other pool has a very similar pump on it just not variable speed. My electric bill went down $100 per month after I installed this pump.

**Q: what valve can i use for pentair intelliflo 011028**
A: Any, but so limit flow rate reduction, I would use the jandy 2-2 1/2” valves

**Q: Is it eligible for return?**
A: yes

**Q: Will a variable speed pump still operate my Great White pool cleaner?**
A: The speed is set by you, so pressure and flow you determine with pump settings.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cut energy use by 90%
*by 8***G on September 9, 2019*

I have a pool, spa and water feature which were all installed with Hayward Superpumps, single speed motors running at 3450 RPM 24x7 (pulling 1400 watts each). With a 35,000 gallon pool I'm turning over a lot of water and these were what the pool installer had recommended when putting in the pool in 2016. I should never have listened to the pool installer (for lots of reasons). We has asked for a saltwater pool and he installed chlorine saying that traditional chlorine was better. I spent a fortune over 3 years on chemicals, but this past summer switched over to a saltwater system. I never had to do a thing to the pool or spa after installing them. I have perfectly balanced water all the time. That was fix #1 that improved my life. Fix #2 was installing these Pentair variable flow pumps. I can run them at 1250 RPM's with plenty of flow to the saltwater chlorinator and at 130-140 watts I've cut energy consumption by 90% saving me $500 a month in electric. Fix #3 was swapping out my standard sand with glass media. Pressure went down, flow improved, dirt is much better dispersed and the water has been crystal clear. Almost frighteningly clear to be honest! The clarity has been just unbelievable. So yeah, I did drop some big $$ this summer on upgrades, but the ROI is going to be a very short 6 months. Between the electric and constant balancing act played with chemicals we are saving about $750 per month in the long run. As someone looking forward to retirement, I'm really excited to not be worrying about where that money was going to come from in the budget.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive Pentair Intelliflo 3 HP Pump
*by M***T on May 27, 2020*

I received my Pentair Intelliflo 3 HP pump yesterday afternoon but needed to purchase pipe seal for couplers so held off on installing until this morning. I had also purchased 2 vacuum/pressure gauges and installed on lower drain plugs so I could compute Total Dynamic Head (TDH) in order to estimate flow-rate versus THD and RPMs. The install went a lot smoother than I had thought it would - I was replacing an old Pentair 2 HP Whisperflo (real workhorse) with this pump and the housing dimensions were identical so the fit was perfect. Note: I had previously added couplers to old pumps and that was a blessing. I also rotated the screen which was very convenient. First impressions - this pump is much quieter than my previous pump and should save me $'s in the long run. Right now, I programmed 3,000 RPMs for 4 hours a day then 1,500 RPMs for 8 hours a day. I had played around with some RPMs and valves and it looks like I'm pumping about 90 GPM at 3,000 RPM (with Main Drains and Skimmer In and Pool and Spa Rtn Out). When I open the Spa Drain as a 3rd Inlet, the flow rate increases. I'm plumbed with all 2" lines but original plumbing isn't ideal and my cartridge filter is probably adding a fair amount to the TDH since only 150 sq ft. I'll come back and give this an updated review once I've had the pump for awhile but I am very impressed so far!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great replacement pump
*by D***C on November 5, 2020*

I replaced our decades-old pentair pump with this one back in May after the old one finally gave out. This pump is way, way more efficient (I monitor household electrical consumption in real time and it is way down when running this pump as opposed to the old one). It took about a day of work to get it plumbed in but that is more my lack of skill than the amount of effort that would actually be needed. Hint: I strongly recommend getting the 2 PACK -CMP Hi-Temp Union 2" inch 2MIP x 2" inch PVC Whisperflo & Intelliflo - 2 PACK that are sold along with the pump; they would have saved me substantial time on the installation.
