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
