Save 40% using your pool pump off-peak.

Pool pumps often need to run around eight hours a day which means the cost can add up, particularly over summer when your pool is in use. By using a programmable pool pump, you can schedule your it to run during off-peak times when energy costs are lower. According to actsmart.gov.au you could reduce your pool pump operating costs by as much as 40%.

Further, pool pumps are often set to run for longer than necessary, which can increase your energy bill. Set your pool pump timer to run for a shorter period and adjust it based on your usage patterns. Once you have implemented these tips, monitor your pool, maintain its operation, change the settings as needed and watch the savings.
