Why Leaf Variable Speed Pool Pumps?

Highest Efficiency Operation

Leaf runs efficiently on only 20 watts—one hundredth the energy of a traditional pool pump—to cut your energy use by up to 90% and save you up to $1500.

ECM Permanent Magnet Motor

The best electric motor for maximizing efficiency; reduces noise and vibration for improved function, longevity and substantial savings over traditional pumps.

2 Year Warranty

Leaf is engineered for reliability and comes standard with a best-in-class 2 year limited warranty to protect your investment, and your pool, for years to come.

Improve Water Quality

Prevent water stagnation by running Leaf 24 hours for less pressure on pool equipment and virtually the same cost as running a single speed pump for 1 hour.

Simple Onboard Controls

Built-In Controls with three programmable presets, a bright LED and simplified push-button keypad allow you to easily control pump speed and run time.

Built for Quality

Run at lower temperatures, with an advanced motor, internal cooling and thermal overload protection to minimize heat, vibration and prevent breakdowns.

smarter variable speed pool pump

A Smarter Pool Pump

Standard pool pumps can consume as much power as the rest of household appliances combined and pool owners are spending about $1.5 billion per year to operate swimming pool systems. To put this in perspective, it takes 24 medium sized power plants to power the systems that keep our pools clean. The resulting emissions are equivalent to 1.3 million cars. Traditional pumps draw far more energy than is required to effectively circulate pool water. In fact, each state in our Sun Belt could close an average of two power plants if every pool was converted to a variable speed pool pump. The Leaf pump is the most efficient variable speed pump available, designed to preserve the health and safety of both people and the environment.

cut energy use up to 90%

Highest Efficiency Operation

Traditional single-speed pumps burn up to 2000W. Leaf runs efficiently on as little as 20 watts—one hundredth the energy of a traditional pool pump—to cut your energy use by up to 90% and save you up to $1500. And while you save the most energy and money operating on slower speeds, even when run at the same high speeds as a traditional pump, Leaf still uses on average 30% less energy than a traditional pump. The Leaf pump establishes new levels of efficiency, topping the performance of 1st generation variable speed pumps by up to 53%.

ecm permanent motor technology

ECM Permanent Magnet Motor Technology

The best electric motor platform for maximizing efficiency reduces noise and vibration for improved function and longevity. The ultra-quiet motor design reduces noise emissions. And the variable frequency drive on Leaf can operate with virtually no pressure on the pool equipment. Advanced internal fan cooling ensures that your pump stays cool while operating at any speed or duration. Regulating the speed of the electric motor by controlling frequency and voltage substantially lowers energy needs, giving you massive savings compared to traditional pump operation.

80% of pump failures are heat related. Traditional high flow pumps move water quickly, but create a lot of friction and head pressure. High motor temperatures lead to bearing wear, winding insulation deterioration, and ultimately, pump failure. Leaf runs efficiently at lower temperatures, with a more advanced motor, internal fan cooling and thermal overload protection to minimize heat and vibration and prevent breakdowns.

improved water quality

Improved Water Quality

Excessive energy demands have forced many pool owners to reduce the amount of time their traditional pool pump runs—often for just 4-8 hours per day. Stagnant water is a breeding ground for bacteria and algae and increases the need for chemicals. Moving water is healthier water. Prevent water stagnation and keep your pool cleaner by running Leaf 24 hours a day for virtually the same cost as running a single speed pump for 1 hour.

Improve water quality by running Leaf longer to filter and circulate chemicals. Reduce stress on all pool equipment by reducing water pressure. See how Leaf outmatches the competition in delivering the best in efficiency and water quality; for a cleaner, healthier pool and maximum return on investment.

onboard pool pump controls

Simple Onboard Controls

Built-In Controls with a bright LED and simplified push-button keypad allow you to easily control the pump speed and run time. The 24-hour programmable controller allows you to set the three presets from 600 – 3450 RPM. And external control options are compatible with virtually all third-party automation. With built-in freeze protection that automatically turns on when the temperature falls below 39˚ and NEMA Type 3R environmental rating to protect from the elements, operating Leaf is simple and worry-free.

2 Year Warranty

Most variable speed pool pumps only have a one-year warranty. Leaf comes standard with a 2-year limited warranty to protect your investment, and your pool, for years to come. Engineered for reliability, Leaf is a variable speed pump that is built the right way, for the most reliable and efficient pump ever.
