    Difficult to replace a pump with a variable speed pump?

    Well thats helpful news...I thought I needed something in the range of over 1 HP for sure. The biggest issue I have on the pump side is just the energy savings the VS gains you.

    Difficult to replace a pump with a variable speed pump?

    I'm in the process of purchasing the Pentair Intelliflo SVRS Pump. My pool store I frequent says that this device can take the place of both the pool pump and booster. How is the install done to take over both pumps. I'm not paying for the install as its crazy expensive and I'm pretty good at...
