Questions & answers

Is this actually quiet? My pump pad is right under a bedroom window.

At low speed, yes — the spec sheet rates it 42 dB, about a quiet library. It runs at low RPM most of the day; you can schedule the high-speed cycle for midday.

Why variable speed

Single-speed pumps run flat-out whenever they're on. A variable-speed pump does the same circulation at low RPM for most of the day, using a fraction of the power — typically cutting pump energy costs 50–70%. Most owners recover the price difference within a few seasons.
