Ive searched the internet for the question to what's the difference between these pumps. Im looking for a 120v, 1.5hp vip pump. I really want the ability to control it from an app. I like the idea of being able to monitor if the pump is still active while I'm away from the house, I have a SWG and if the pump stops working then there's no chlorine!! I don't have any other timers or automation equipment. The pump is just plugged into a gfci outlet right next to the SWG. Anyone have experience with either of these
Intelliflo or Intellipro

Intelllipro is based on the Sta-Rite Max-E-Pro pump.
Intelliflo is based on the Pentair Whisperflo pump.
Neither will work on 120V.
Intelliflo3 VSF will work with an app, but not 120V.
The Whisperflo VST will work on 120V but would need Pentair automation to work with your phone..
Well maybe that's why the intellipro3 was recommended to me, maybe its the only one that's 115/230

Thanks, but will this be controlled from the app like the intellipro3? The ability to monitor from afar is paramount to me

I think that the IntelliPro3 and the IntelliFlo3 are the same pump except for the IntelliFlo3 is tan and the IntelliPro3 is black.
