Key Features & Benefits
1. Extreme Energy Savings
- Variable Speed Advantage: By running at lower speeds for longer periods, the TriStar VS 810 can reduce energy consumption by up to 90% compared to traditional single-speed pumps.
- Cost Efficiency: Most homeowners see the pump pay for itself in energy savings within the first two seasons of use.
2. Integrated Omni® Smart Control
The “Omni” designation means this pump acts as the “brain” of your pool pad. Via the OmniLogic® app, you can:
- Schedule Speeds: Set high speed for cleaning and low speed for filtration.
- Control Peripheral Gear: Wire in your pool heater or salt chlorinator to manage them from the same app.
- Voice Integration: Compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for hands-free pool management.
3. Whisper-Quiet Operation
The TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) motor design significantly reduces the “whine” associated with older pool pumps. At lower filtration speeds, the pump is virtually silent, making it ideal for equipment pads located near windows or patios.
4. Maintenance-Friendly Design
- Extra-Large Basket: The TriStar features a high-capacity leaf basket with a see-through cover, meaning you spend less time emptying debris.
- Easy Retrofit: Designed to be a drop-in replacement for existing TriStar or NorthStar® pumps, minimizing the need for complex replumbing.
- Chemical Resistance: The Viton® seal provides superior resistance to chemical wear, extending the life of the internal components.
Installation Highlights
- Power: Can be wired for either 115V or 230V, making it highly versatile for different backyard setups.
- Connectivity: Requires a Wi-Fi connection at the pool pad to utilize the Omni smartphone features.
- Reliability: The drive is permanently lubricated and protected against environmental elements, ensuring a much longer lifespan than standard “open” motors.
Note: For the best performance, it is recommended to pair this pump with a high-flow filter to take full advantage of the variable speed’s ability to maintain crystal-clear water at low pressures.
