WhisperFlo High Performance Pump 1HP EC

Product Information

This is another top-quality pump – the updated model from Pentair. WhisperFlo pumps are designed for high-efficiency power consumption with optimized hydraulic performance. The variable speed motor of WhisperFlo 011533 allows to save up to 90% of energy costs.

The Pentair 011522 WhisperFlo and Pentair 342001 SuperFlo are both our winners here. Despite the reputation of simple motors, the TEFC option does last longer. And when it comes to horsepower, even the smallest HP is enough for inground pools. The choice here depends on your preferences (especially in terms of electricity saving). But we’d prefer the balanced 1.5 HP models. Speeds Consequently, all Pentair pool pumps differ in horsepower rate. You can see the difference in our comparison table. Not only does Pentair SuperFlo 342001 boast an improved motor, but it also can alter the number of rotations per minute in three ways. This pump is a variable speed model that supports three speeds. You can adjust the flow manually by choosing any RPM rate from 300 to 3450 points. The manufacturer and experienced users recommend setting standard 1400, 2200, and 3450 RPM as the optimal speeds for large pools.In variable speed models, digital screens are rather a necessity than a luxury. The owners of single speed models don’t need it. But it’s a timer where they really lose a lot. Basket The WhisperFlo series pumps are distinguished by super-silent operation. In addition, they reduce the noise level thanks to a special FunnelFlo diffuser. A marine biologist by education, I became a pool blogger by trade. Now I’m glad I can help the guests of my store and the visitors of my blog know a lot of exciting things about pools, their types, best pumps and filters, necessary equipment maintenance, and so on.

See-through lid makes inspection fast and easy—engineered polymer remains clear and strong for years Having worked there for three years, I decided to start my own blog about pools, where I can tell people about the best new pool equipment models and share my knowledge and experience. Only several speeds and the opportunity to alter them ensure visible electricity savings. That’s the main pro of variable speed pumps.

Buy Locally

Five years ago, I graduated from the University of California-Los Angeles and was going to become a professional marine biologist. However, my fate had other plans for me, and due to family problems, I had to find a more stable and well-paid job. I had only one wish for my job to be connected with water.

Pentair SuperFlo 342001 and Pentair WhisperFlo 011533 are the only models here that offer smart control and customization through a built-in digital screen. The WhisperFlo 011533 boasts the same three-speed motor. You can manually set the speed from 450 to 3450 RPM using a touchpad. The manufacturer designed this pump to use in pools with several water devices to make it the most efficient in its class. Also, you can integrate this pump into all Pentair control systems.

Dive Right In to Pool & Spa Education

Pentair SuperFlo 342001 and Pentair WhisperFlo 011533 provide three different RPM speeds to adjust to current needs. Pentair WhisperFlo 011522 has two such options. All other pumps are single speed pumps. Like all WhisperFlo and SuperFlo, this pump is designed for inground pools. Its sealed beating and stainless shaft do not require lubrication. WhisperFlo 011522 can work in a pool of any size and with any combination of spas, jets, cleaning cycles, and filters. This pump is designed to work in residential or commercial pools for extended services-free life.
