Circulation with control
Let the pump adapt to the pool's needs
A pool pump needs to do different jobs throughout the day. During regular filtration, a steady, reliable flow is needed. During backwashing, the requirement may be different. With a variable-speed pool pump, you can tailor the operation and create a calmer pool environment. At Pooltime, you will find models to compare based on your pool, your filter, and the control you want.

Customised flow
Adjust the speed to the system's needs instead of always running at the same speed.
Control over operation
Choose a model with programming if you want to be able to plan different operating modes throughout the day.
A well-considered pump replacement
Start with the existing pipes, filter, and electrical connection to find a solution that suits the entire system.
When is a variable-speed pool pump a good choice?
It is especially interesting when you want to replace an older pump, gain better control over circulation, or reduce unnecessarily high operation. Lower speeds can mean lower energy use and noise levels, but the outcome depends on the pump, settings, and system. The best solution is therefore a pump that is correctly sized, not just the one with the highest stated capacity.
Filtration, pool heat pump, and any water treatment still need to receive the flow they require. Let those requirements guide the settings so that convenience goes hand in hand with effective water treatment.
Four things to compare before buying
- Flow under real resistance. Pipe length, height differences, and equipment affect the flow. Compare the pump curve with the system's conditions.
- Filter and backwashing. Check both the filter's permitted flow and the flow required for cleaning.
- Connections and space. Measure the existing pipes and the space in the equipment room. Leave access to the prefilter and service.
- Control. Consider whether you need time schedules, external control signals, or a simpler setting directly on the pump.
Discover Kripsol VSP and more alternatives
Kripsol VSP in our range has variable speed and programming with five daily programs as well as three preset speeds. That makes it worth comparing when you want to control operation according to different needs. The collection also includes other pump models and equipment for circulation.
It is a good idea to have the pool volume, current pump model, and filter model ready before you choose. That makes the comparison clearer and makes it easier to find a pump that suits your installation. Also read about pool pump power consumption if operating cost is an important part of your decision.
Frequently asked questions before your purchase
Can I replace a standard pump with a variable-speed one?
Often yes, but connections, power supply, and flow requirements need to match. Compare the dimensions and technical specifications of the relevant model before ordering.
How much electricity can I save?
It depends on the current pump, operating time, and the flow the system requires. Compare operation at the corresponding filtration requirement; a general percentage is easily misleading.
Can the pump always run at the lowest speed?
No. The filter and connected equipment must receive sufficient flow. Backwashing may also require a higher speed than regular filtration.
