For years, the discussion by pool techs and designers has been which brand of equipment has stood the test of time?
Being a Commercial Pool Service Tech and Pool Designer for over 20 years I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly! The hard to service, the poorly designed and the products that plainly do not last. So after 20 years, I fully recommend Pentair.
As your Designer, I will configure your plan callouts using right size methods for best fitment, user needs, size of pool and spa.
INTELLIFLO® 2 VST

INTELLIFLOXF®
Variable Speed Pump
THE ENERGY-SAVING REVOLUTION CONTINUES: SAVE UP TO $1,600* EACH YEAR WITH THE HIGHEST-EFFICIENCY PUMP WE’VE EVER MADE
The IntelliFloXF Variable Speed pump packs more money-saving innovations into a single pump than any other. Compared to traditional single-speed pumps, it can reduce your annual utility bill by up to $1,600*.
The difference is a breakthrough by Pentair: XF pump hydraulics. We’ve redesigned interior passageways and parts for smoother, more efficient operation. The IntelliFloXF pump uses less energy to deliver the flow your pool requires.
These operating hydraulic improvements are paired with Pentair IntelliFlo Variable Speed Pump technology, a proven design that has led the revolution in pool pump efficiency. Together, these innovations give you the most advanced, smoothest-running, and most energy-efficient pump we’ve ever made. It’s part of our Eco Select® Brand line of products, one of our “greenest” and most efficient equipment choices.
