If I replace my two speed Whisperflo motor with this VS, what will I do with my current timer/switch? Does it get bypassed completely and I just use the programming on the motor?

Hi Blaine, the new variable-speed motor has its own timer onboard, so you can keep it powered up all of the time and bypass your old timer.  View our article on How to Save Money Using a Variable Speed Motor for tips on how to set it up properly for maximum savings on your electric bill.

Hello Bruce.  The Pentair Whisperflo WFE-6 has a total rated horsepower of 2.20.  The Pentair Whisperflo VS Motor Upgrade Kit 1.65 HP model MKIT32VS16 is a compatible replacement if the circulation demand of your pool can accommodate the 0.55 drop in horsepower and subsequent drop in water flow.  If the pool has Solar Heating (single or two-story) water features (fountains, waterfall), the Pentair Whisperflo VS Motor Upgrade Kit 2.7 HP MKIT32VS27 would be the better selection. Pentair Whisperflo VS Motor Upgrade Kit - 2.7HP - MKIT32VS27
