Variable-speed pumps are the ultimate way to save energy while enjoying your pool. Most other variablespeed
models, however, are oversized when compared to medium-head pumps such as Hayward®’s Max-Flo series. The all-new Max-Flo VS is right-sized, particularly for applications with 1.5" or 2" plumbing, providing tremendous energy savings that result in an even faster return on your investment.
The digital interface shows power consumption for immediate feedback to maximize energy savings.
Max-Flo VS provides customizable speed, duration, and priming time to match the needs of both aftermarket and new construction installations. Programmable timers and a permanent magnet motor mean this pump meets the requirements of swimming pool efficiency standards such as Title 20 and APSP-15. Upgrade and save with Max-Flo VS!

I have a 12,000 gallon pool. the pump location is 10 ' from the in ground pool and at the same elevation as the bottom of the pool.I am using a 27 " diameter filter. Approximately what is the minimum speed I can run the pump to get one turnover every 24 hours.

Running this pump at 600 RPM for 24 hrs will turn over your pool 2 times. With your size pool and whether you have 1.5" or 2" plumbing around 600-700 RPM will be enough once the pump is primed. The pump will run at 3000 RPM to prime then fall to set RPM.

I'd like to combine this pump with a heat pump, but see the maximum flow rate on the heat pump is only 70 GPM. If the Hayward pump pumps more than 70 GPM, how does everything work properly? It seems that either the heat pump won't heat properly if the flow is too high, or the pump/filter won't filter properly if the flow is too low. The filter I'm looking at says 120 GPM. Please help!! Thanks!!

Hi Matt, You would actually want to run this pump at the lowest RPM's possible while still maintaining a clear pool, this is a bit of trial and error when you first install the pump. The lower the RPM's / GPM's you can run the pump at the lower your operational costs will be, even if this means running the pump for longer periods of time. The 120 GPM filter will mean that you will have large capacity filter which allow you to have longer periods of time between cleaning the cartridge and when you do go up to the highest speed on this pump then your filter will be able to handle the output of this pump. As far as the heat pump goes you will program the pump so that when the heat pump kicks on that the pump is running at the ideal flow rating for your heat pump.

I have a 27,000 gallon pool. The pump location is about15 feet from the pool and 5 feet above it. I am using 1.5" plumbing. What speed settings should I set for the pump?

This is somewhat trial and error. For just filtration,I would start by running this pump at half speed, 1725 RPM, for 16 hours. If that keeps your pool clear, try dropping it in 200 RPM increments a week at a time. When your pool starts to cloud up, bump it back up to the previous level. If you are running a suction cleaner, you may have to run at 2400 RPM or more part of this time for the cleaner to operate efficiently. If you have a spa, you would probably want to run that at full RPM while you are in the pool.
