Flotide E-Turbo VS – When whisper-quiet meets energy-saving genius

If you can't sleep at night (because the old pump hums like a jackhammer). If your electricity bill is skyrocketing (€200/month just for the pool pump). If you want crystal-clear water – without your neighbors hating you.

You have a pool filter pump. Old technology (one speed, always runs at full speed). The problem:

Problem #1: Noise pollution
Your old pump hums at 60-75 dB (as loud as a vacuum cleaner). Your neighbor knocks on the fence ("Can you turn the pump off at night?"). You can't sit on your patio (the noise is annoying). You hate your own pump.

Problem #2: Energy guzzlers
The old pump runs 8 hours a day at 1,100 watts (full power, always). This costs: 8h x 1.1 kW x €0.35/kWh x 180 days = €554 per season for the filter pump alone. Plus: heat pump, lighting, dosing system = total pool costs of €800-1,200 per year.

Problem #3: Oversized
Your pool doesn't always need full power (half power is sufficient at night). But an old pump can only do 100% or 0% . No intermediate setting. That's wasteful (like a car that only knows full throttle or idle).

Problem #4: Maintenance is annoying
Old pre-filter basket (1 liter): Fills up every 2-3 days (leaves, insects) → You have to clean it (annoying). Plus: The pump is loud → You don't even want to go into the utility room.

There is a solution. One that solves all four problems at once – and pays for itself.

The Flotide E-Turbo VS – the variable-speed inverter filter pump . Fully inverted permanent magnet motor. Speed ​​adjustable from 800-3,400 rpm (instead of just "full throttle"). The result: whisper-quiet (<50 dB), energy-saving (up to 80% less power consumption at partial load), intelligently controllable (WiFi app, 4 programs, timer), low-maintenance (3-liter pre-filter).

What you will receive:

• Noise level <50 dB (as quiet as a refrigerator – you won't hear the pump anymore)
• Up to 80% energy savings (at 900 rpm only 50W instead of 1,100W – saves €400-500/year)
• Variable speed 800-3,400 rpm (exactly adjustable to requirements – slow at night, fast during the day)
• 4 programmable levels + 4 schedules (automatic – pump regulates itself)
• WiFi control + app (control the pump from the sofa – no need to go to the utility room)
• 3-liter pre-filter (3x larger than standard – only needs cleaning every 7-10 days)
• Maximum flow rate 31 m³/h (strong enough for large pools up to 60 m³)
• Dry-run protection + fault diagnosis (pump protects itself – no damage)
• 5-10 year lifespan (permanent magnet motor = less wear than old pumps)

The result: You set the pump to 1,500 rpm (at night, 8 hours). Power consumption: 150W (instead of 1,100W) = 1.2 kWh/night (instead of 8.8 kWh). You save: 7.6 kWh x €0.35 x 180 days = €479 per season . Amortization: The pump pays for itself in 2-3 years through electricity savings.

Wednesday evening, 10:00 PM. You're sitting on the terrace (reading a book, drinking wine). Old pump: humming at 60 dB (annoying, you can clearly hear the pump). Flotide E-Turbo VS: 48 dB (you only hear crickets chirping, wind in the trees). You relax – instead of being annoyed.

The 5 most important advantages at a glance:

• Whisper-quiet <50 dB = peace of mind for you and your neighbors : Old pumps: 60-75 dB (as loud as a vacuum cleaner), Flotide E-Turbo VS: <50 dB (as quiet as a refrigerator), optimized rear ventilation (reduces noise and heat), you can run the pump at night (your neighbor won't complain)
• Up to 80% energy savings = €400-500/year saved : At 900 rpm only 50W (instead of 1,100W with the old pump = 95% savings), at 1,500 rpm only 150W (86% savings), at 2,500 rpm only 585W (47% savings), full speed (3,400 rpm) only when necessary (after rain, pool party), amortization in 2-3 years
• Variable speed 800-3,400 rpm = precise adjustment : Nighttime: 900 rpm (slow filtration, 6 m³/h, 50W – perfectly adequate), Daytime: 2,500 rpm (normal filtration, 18 m³/h, 585W), After pool party: 3,400 rpm (power filtration, 31 m³/h, max. output). You adjust the pump to the demand (like a car with an accelerator pedal – not just full throttle/idle).
• WiFi app + 4 programs + 4 schedules = Autopilot : 4 programmable fixed speeds (S1-S4, e.g., S1=Night, S2=Day, S3=Party, S4=Winter), 4 schedules (e.g., 10 PM - 6 AM slow, 6 AM - 10 AM fast, 10 AM - 6 PM medium), WiFi control (app on smartphone – turn pump on/off/adjust from the sofa), automatic (pump runs independently according to schedule – even if you forget about it)
• 3-liter pre-filter = less maintenance : Old pumps: 1-liter pre-filter (fills up every 2-3 days – annoying), Flotide: 3-liter pre-filter (fills up only every 7-10 days – 70% less maintenance), transparent lid (see fill level without opening), tool-free opening (ring closure – no screwdriver needed)

Who is this inverter filter pump ideally suited for?

Reality check : The Flotide E-Turbo VS is for "silent seekers" and "efficiency gurus" who want peace and quiet and energy savings – and are willing to invest in modern technology (permanent magnet motor = more expensive than old single-speed pumps, but it pays for itself).

✓ "Silent-Seekers" – people who hate noise (neighborhood peace)
Your property is densely built up (neighbor 5m away). Your old pump hums at 65 dB → neighbor complains ("Can you turn the pump off at night?"). You're afraid of a neighborhood dispute. Flotide E-Turbo VS: <50 dB (as quiet as a refrigerator) → neighbor hears nothing → you sleep peacefully (no arguments, no tension).

✓ "Efficiency gurus" – people who find wasted electricity physically painful
You're an analyst. You count every kWh. The old pump consumes 1.1 kW x 8h = 8.8 kWh/day = 1,584 kWh/season = €554/year (pump only). That's money down the drain. The Flotide E-Turbo VS at 1,500 rpm: 150W x 8h = 1.2 kWh/day = 216 kWh/season = €75/year . You save: €479/year. Amortization: The pump (approx. €1,000-1,200) pays for itself in 2-3 years through electricity savings. System 2 (Ratio) is satisfied.

✓ People with large pools (30-60 m³) – who need power (but not always)
Your pool is 8 x 4m (32 m³) or 10 x 5m (50 m³). You need: A powerful pump (min. 20-30 m³/h flow rate). But: Don't always run it at full power (half power is sufficient at night). Flotide E-Turbo VS: Max. 31 m³/h (at 3,400 rpm – sufficient for pools up to 60 m³) + adjustable down to 6 m³/h (at 900 rpm – saves electricity at night). Perfect balance: Power when needed, economy when possible.

✓ People with 24/7 filtration (who always leave the pool running)
You want to filter your pool 24 hours a day (not just 8 hours) → the water stays crystal clear (no algae, no cloudiness). The problem with an old pump: 24h x 1.1 kW = 26.4 kWh/day = €1,662/season in electricity costs (absurdly expensive). With a Flotide at 900 rpm: 24h x 50W = 1.2 kWh/day = €75/season . You can filter 24/7 – for a fraction of the cost.

✓ People with heat pump/solar/counter-current system (optimizing the overall system)
Your pool has a heat pump (for pool heating), solar heating, and a counter-current system. The old filter pump: always runs at full speed (1.1 kW) → overloads the electrical system (heat pump + pump + counter-current = 3-4 kW simultaneously → fuse blows). The Flotide (variable speed): runs slowly when the heat pump is on (150W instead of 1.1 kW) → the entire system runs smoothly → no overload, no problems.

✓ Tech-savvy people (who appreciate WiFi control and automation)
They love smart home technology (Alexa, smart thermostats, automatic blinds). The Flotide E-Turbo VS has WiFi + app (the pump is smart home compatible) + MODBUS/RS485 (integration into pool control systems is possible). You can control your pool from the sofa (open the app → pump speed up/down → done). Tech enthusiasts love it.

✓ People in utility rooms near their homes (basement, garage, under terrace)
Your utility room is located under the patio or next to the living room (in the basement, adjoining). An old pump hums → you can hear the pump in the house (annoying while watching TV or sleeping). Flotide E-Turbo VS: <50 dB + optimized rear ventilation (noise directed to the rear, not the front) → you no longer hear the pump in the house → peace and quiet.

✓ People who hate maintenance (3-liter pre-filter = 70% less work)
They hate cleaning pre-filters (opening them every 2-3 days, scraping out leaves, screwing them back on – annoying). Flotide: 3-liter pre-filter (3x larger than standard) → only clean every 7-10 days → you save 70% maintenance time → more swimming, less screwing.

Product description: When permanent magnet meets inverter technology

The concept: Variable speed = accelerator pedal for your pump

Old filter pumps are single-speed pumps (the motor always runs at the same speed – 2,850 rpm, full throttle). The problem is: like a car that only knows full throttle or idle (no intermediate speed). This is inefficient (you don't always need full throttle).

Inverter pumps (like the Flotide E-Turbo VS) have a variable throttle: the motor runs at 800-3,400 rpm (adjustable, stepless). They adjust the speed to the demand – like a car with a throttle pedal.

Why is this revolutionary?

Energy consumption increases cubically with rotational speed. Mathematics: Power ∝ rotational speed³ .

Practical tip: Halve the speed → power consumption drops to 1/8 (12.5% ​​of the original power).

Example:

• 3,400 rpm (full throttle): 1,100W power consumption
• 1,700 rpm (half speed): 137W power consumption ( 87% saving )
• 900 rpm (slow): 50W power consumption ( 95% savings )

That's magic – they continue filtering (slower, but the pool still gets clean), but use a fraction of the electricity .

Fully inverted permanent magnet motor – The heart of efficiency

What is a permanent magnet motor?

Standard motor (old pumps): Asynchronous induction motor (copper coils in the rotor, induced magnetic field). Problem: Losses due to induction (heat, friction) → efficiency 70-80% .

Permanent magnet motor (Flotide E-Turbo VS): Rare earth magnets in the rotor (neodymium, permanent magnet). Advantage: No induction losses → efficiency 90-95% → lower power consumption for the same output .

Plus: "Fully inverted" = Motor has electronic speed control (inverter) → Speed ​​is continuously adjustable (800-3,400 rpm).

The result: Motor runs more efficiently (permanent magnet) + is adjustable (inverter) = up to 80% power savings compared to the old pump.

Whisper-quiet <50 dB – Optimized rear ventilation

Old pumps: 60-75 dB (as loud as a vacuum cleaner, conversations are drowned out).

Flotide E-Turbo VS: <50 dB (as quiet as a refrigerator, library, quiet conversation).

How is this achieved?

Optimized rear ventilation: The fan draws in air from the rear (cooling the motor) and blows it out the back (not forward/upwards). Noise is directed to the rear , resulting in less noise in front of/next to the pump.

Plus: Slower speed = less noise (at 900 rpm the pump is even quieter than at 3,400 rpm).

Practical: Technical room under terrace → Flotide runs at 1,500 rpm → You are sitting on the terrace → You hear: Nothing (pump is inaudible).

4 programmable speed levels + 4 schedules – Autopilot for your pool

The problem with old pumps: They have to be switched on/off manually (on in the morning, off in the evening → annoying, sometimes forgotten).

The solution: The Flotide E-Turbo VS has autopilot.

4 fixed speeds (S1-S4):
You program 4 speed presets (e.g. S1 = 900 rpm "Night", S2 = 1,500 rpm "Day", S3 = 2,500 rpm "Party", S4 = 3,400 rpm "Power").

4 schedules:
You program 4 time slots with priority (e.g., Schedule 1: 22:00-06:00 S1 "Night", Schedule 2: 06:00-10:00 S2 "Day", Schedule 3: 10:00-18:00 S1 "Night", Schedule 4: 18:00-22:00 S2 "Day").

The result: The pump runs automatically according to a schedule. You forget the pump (it runs on its own – like a heating system with a thermostat).

Priority logic: If multiple schedules overlap → the highest priority wins (e.g., schedule 1 = highest priority → overrides other schedules).

WiFi app + MODBUS/RS485 – Smart home for your pool

WiFi control:

Flotide E-Turbo VS has an integrated WiFi module → connects to your WLAN → you control the pump via app (smartphone/tablet).

What can you do with the app?

• Turn the pump on/off (from the sofa)
• Change speed (faster/slower)
• Adjust schedules (program new times)
• Read error codes (if pump has a problem → app shows error code)

Practical: You're lying in bed → Pool party yesterday → Water is cloudy → Open the app → Set the pump to "Power" on S4 → Pump runs at full speed → Water becomes clear → You go back to sleep.

MODBUS/RS485 interface:

For tech professionals: Flotide has MODBUS/RS485 (industrial communication standard) → integration into external pool control systems is possible (e.g., Loxone, KNX, other smart home systems).

Practical: Your pool control system (central control for pool + heating + lighting + dosing) automatically controls the Flotide pump (e.g. when the heat pump is on → filter pump runs slowly → saves electricity).

Dry-running protection + fault diagnosis – pump protects itself

The problem with old pumps: If the pre-filter is empty (no water) → the pump still runs → the motor overheats → it burns out → the pump is broken (repair costs €300-800).

The solution: Flotide has intelligent protection.

Dry-run protection (No-Flow / No-Load):
Pump detects: No water is flowing (flow sensor) → stops automatically → motor does not overheat → no damage .

Fault diagnosis:
Pump monitors: Overcurrent (too much current → motor overloaded), overvoltage (power grid has voltage spike), undervoltage (power grid has voltage drop), overheating (motor gets too hot).

If a fault is detected: Pump stops + displays error code (on display or in app) → you know immediately what the problem is → can call a technician (with precise fault description → faster repair).

Plus: Automatic restart after power failure (when power returns → pump starts automatically → you don't need to turn it on manually).

3-liter pre-filter – Less maintenance, more swimming

Standard pre-filter: 1 liter (small, fills up quickly).

Flotide E-Turbo VS: 3 liters ( 3x larger ).

That means:

Old pump (1 liter): Fills up every 2-3 days (leaves, insects, hair) → You have to clean it (open, take out the basket, scrape out the dirt, put the basket back in, screw it shut → 10 min work → annoying ).

Flotide (3 liters): Fill every 7-10 days → You clean 70% less often → less work → more time to swim.

Plus:

• Transparent lid (you can see the fill level without opening → only open when it's really full)
• Tool-free opening (ring closure, no screws → twist by hand, remove lid, take out basket → 30 seconds instead of 5 minutes)

Maximum flow rate 31 m³/h – Power for large pools

Flow rate: 31 m³/h (at 3,400 rpm, full throttle).

What does that mean?

Rule of thumb: The pool should be completely circulated 1-2 times per day (all water pumped through the filter).

Example:

• Pool 32 m³ (8 x 4 m): Requires a flow rate of 32 m³/h (for one complete circulation in one hour) → Flotide achieves 31 m³/h → perfect
• Pool 50 m³ (10 x 5m): Requires 25 m³/h (for one complete circulation every two hours) → Flotide achieves 31 m³/h → more than enough
• Pool 60 m³ (12 x 5m): Requires 30 m³/h (for one complete circulation every two hours) → Flotide achieves 31 m³/h → just barely sufficient

Flotide E-Turbo VS is suitable for pools up to 60 m³ (with a runtime of 2 hours per circulation).

Plus: At lower speeds (900-2,500 rpm) the flow rate is lower (6-18 m³/h) → ideal for 24/7 filtration (slow continuous filtration instead of fast pulse filtration).

Frequently Asked Questions – Honest Answers

Q: Does the Flotide E-Turbo VS really save 80% electricity?
A: Yes (at low speed). At 900 rpm: 50W (instead of 1,100W for the old pump) = 95% savings. At 1,500 rpm: 150W = 86% savings. However: At full speed (3,400 rpm), the Flotide consumes about the same amount of power as the old pump (1.1 kW). The savings come from the variable speed (you don't always run at full speed).

Q: Is a flow rate of 6 m³/h (at 900 rpm) sufficient for my pool?
A: Depends on pool size and usage. Small pools (<20 m³): 6 m³/h is sufficient (one circulation every 3-4 hours). Large pools (40-60 m³): 6 m³/h is too slow for main filtration → use 900 rpm only at night (slow continuous filtration) + 2,500 rpm during the day (18 m³/h, normal filtration).

Q: Is installation complicated (do I need an electrician)?
A: Yes, an electrician is recommended. The pump requires a 230V power connection (hardwired, not plugged in) → this must be installed by an electrician (fuse, residual current device, cable routing). You can do the hydraulic installation (connecting the pipes) yourself (if you are handy) → 50/63mm adhesive connection (PVC glue).

Q: Does Flotide also work with saltwater pools?
A: Yes (EPDM seal is saltwater resistant, stainless steel components are corrosion-free). Same lifespan as chlorine pools.

Q: How loud is <50 dB really (in comparison)?
A: 50 dB = refrigerator, library, quiet conversation (1m distance). 60 dB = normal conversation, office. 70 dB = vacuum cleaner, loud conversation. Difference 50 dB → 60 dB: Perceived as twice as loud (dB scale is logarithmic). The Flotide at <50 dB is SIGNIFICANTLY quieter than older pumps (60-70 dB).

Q: Can I run Flotide at night (or will that disturb the neighbors)?
A: Yes (at low speed). At 900-1,500 rpm: <50 dB → inaudible to neighbors (even with the window open). At 3,400 rpm (full throttle): louder (but still <60 dB → quieter than old pumps).

Q: Is Flotide worth it for a small pool (20 m³)?
A: Conditionally. With a small pool, the absolute electricity savings are minimal (the old pump uses fewer kWh because it runs for shorter periods → e.g., €200/year instead of €550/year). Savings with Flotide: €100/year → amortization takes 10+ years (too long). Flotide is worthwhile for pools of 30-40 m³ or more (where the old pump runs for 8+ hours/day).

Q: What happens during a power outage?
A: Pump stops (no power). After a power outage: Pump starts automatically (continues running after the last program). No manual restart is necessary.

Q: Do I need a special app (or does it work with standard Wi-Fi)?
A: Flotide app (download from the App Store/Google Play). The pump connects to your standard Wi-Fi network (2.4 GHz, WPA2). No special router settings are required.
