Best VS Pump for 110 Volt Equipment Pad

Back in the day if you had a 110/115V set up for your pool equipment there was no way to upgrade to a VS pump. Pentair broke into the 110V equipment pad market with their SuperFlo Vs which is a sold pump but lacking in a few areas. The Jacuzzi JVS165S is a fully functional VS pump designed with dual voltage so it will work with either 110/220V breakers.




Some features that make this the superior 110V pump to upgrade to is the extended 3-year total warranty if the pump is purchased at Leslie's and installed by either Leslie's or a Leslie's Pro Partner. 

It is also automation-ready and can work with any of the three major brand automation including Hayward, Pentair, and Jandy. One thing the Pentair Superflo VS cannot do is connect to existing automation, but the JVS 165S is perfect for any automated system. It is also made right here in the USA.

The easy to program control panel and the advanced Time Out mode set this pump apart from others in this category. Setting up and programming this pump could not be easier. This pump also features one of the best DOE (Department of Energy) ratings meaning it is extremely energy efficient - a 10.7 WEF rating! 

The Jacuzzi JVS165S Pro Grade Variable Speed Pump 1.65 THP provides the highest quality and exceptional performance to meet your swimming pool's needs. If you have a 115V setup and are currently using a 1 hp single-speed pump, this would be the perfect pump to upgrade to. 
It has plenty of power for most pool setups and it is simple to use and program.

The 1st generation of Jacuzzi pumps lacked a few features such as connectivity to automation and a time-out mode. Two things that were very important to homeowners. The new Jacuzzi VS Pumps feature all of that and more.

This pump is very simple to program and set up when compared to the former Jacuzzi pump. It also features a smart “Time Out” mode which makes turning on the pump and circulating the pool when adding chemicals easy. Overall you will find the menu and features easy to use and setting the pump run time couldn’t be easier. 

Here are the three pumps available in the line-up:
JVS270 is a 2.7 THP VS pump with a DOE rating of 12.9 WEF
JVS185 is a 1.85 THP VS pump with a DOE rating of 10.1 WEF
JVS165 is a 1.65 THP VS pump with a DOE rating of 10.7 WEF

All of these pumps are dual voltage which means they will work with either 115 volts or 230 volts. So if you have an older pool that is wired on a 115V breaker, you can use any of these three pumps as the voltage is automatically modulated. I would suggest the JVS165 or the JVS185 utilize the total hp rating of these pumps. The JVS270 will be throttled down to about 1.5 hp when connected at a 115V breaker. 

All three pumps are also automated ready so all you need to do is connect the Comm wires to your particular automated system. They come factory set to connect directly with Hayward Automation. For the others, you may need an adapter sold separately. But the simple fact that you can connect these pumps to your existing automation is a real game-changer

Can I Use Clorox Bleach in my Pool?

Image
Regular Unscented Bleach I started doing pool service when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I took a break from the industry and did some Real Estate Investing and ran a small business for awhile. But I always loved working outdoors and so I decided to do pool service again. So I have about 15 years of practical experience in the field. My specialty has always been water chemistry as I was formally trained by an experts in the field. So I am well versed in most of the chemicals that are on the market today and I have used and tested a lot of different products. So when you hear those in the industry discourage and even slander anyone who uses bleach in their pool, you may think that it is not a product that you should use. In fact as you read this article you will find that using bleach and only bleach is a safe and smart choice. There is a lot of ignorance surrounding household bleach and the use of bleach in a swimming pool. Here is a video I made that goes in more detail on usin

Mr. Pen Non-contact Voltage Meter - Don't Get Electrocuted!

Image
One of the biggest issues you will run into with anything connected to an AC power is if that device or equipment is receiving power. In the pool service industry, this often is the case when you find that a pool pump won’t turn on. Or if a pool timer doesn't on, is it receiving power? Also for repairs with so many breakers being unmarked, how do you know you turned off the right breaker. Bottom line, a non-contact detector like the Mr. Pen is an easy way to see if power is going to the equipment/device and the line is active. A non-contact voltage detector is just that. You don’t need to make contact with the line like with a Multimeter. Plus you don’t need to adjust any settings or knobs to get a voltage reading. Simply hold the Mr. Pen over a cord or wire whip and if there is AC power a red light will turn on and an audible beep will come out of the device. A very easy way to tell if power or a current is present.  To order: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LFYTG5?&_encoding=UT
