Going Green!
๐ฑ Going Green with Your Pool Pump
Itโs time to go green with one of the biggest year-round energy consumers on your property โ the pool pump. ๐ง According to recent statistics, it takes about six power plants to run all of the swimming pools in California. Thatโs not only a huge strain on the stateโs energy supply, but also on your own household bills.
โก California Title 20 & Energy Regulations
Since January 2008, California Title 20 law requires that if your pool pump (1 hp or greater) fails, it must be replaced with at least a two-speed motor that allows programmable speeds.
๐ While a two-speed motor does save some energy, itโs essentially two old technology motors in one casing. The smarter choice is a variable speed pump with a permanent magnetic drive motorโthe same technology used in hybrid cars. ๐
These pumps are quieter, cooler, and far more energy efficient than traditional options.
๐ก Why Choose a Variable Speed Pump?
- ๐ Run your pump for longer hours at low speed = cleaner water with improved quality.
- ๐ Perfect for pool/spa combos โ set exact speeds for filtering, cleaners, and spa jets.
- ๐ฐ Save money: most pool owners save $400 โ $600 per year, some even more.
- ๐ Quieter operation and longer equipment lifespan.
๐ Rebates & Incentives
Currently, Riverside Utilities and Southern California Edison are offering a $200 rebate for the installation of a variable speed pump.*
โ ๏ธ Rebates are no longer available for two-speed motors.
*Note: The pump must be programmable to qualify for the rebate.
