Between recurring heatwaves and water restrictions, owning a swimming pool today requires a much more thoughtful approach. Fortunately, eco-responsibility is the key challenge for the pool of tomorrow, and concrete solutions exist to transform your basin into a model of efficiency.
Hayward has long been at the forefront of this trend, developing “low consumption” equipment that preserves resources while boosting your comfort. Here are the five strategic pieces of equipment for a fair and reasoned management of your pool, whether for a new build or a renovation.
The Top 5 Equipment Solutions for a Planet-Friendly Pool
TriStar® VSTD Variable Speed Pump for Lower Bills
This technological gem can save you up to 85% in energy savings. Unlike classic pumps, the TriStar® VSTD runs continuously over 24 hours, constantly adapting its speed to the filtration needs of the basin. By operating at lower speeds, it ensures perfect filtration quality while being much quieter and lasting longer. Thanks to the energy savings achieved, the pump pays for itself in just 2 to 3 seasons.
SwimClear™ Element Filters to Say Goodbye to Water Waste
Imagine saving up to 15,000 liters of water every year. The SwimClear™ filter is twice as efficient as a traditional sand filter and captures even the finest debris. Its large storage capacity makes backwashing unnecessary, preventing thousands of liters of treated water from being sent down the drain. It features a 10-year warranty on the tank and significantly reduces the need for chemical products.
LED Technology for Magical Nights
Pool lighting adds a touch of magic to summer nights, and it is even better with smart, energy-saving LED projectors. Hayward flat LED projectors allow for up to 90% savings in electricity compared to traditional bulbs. Ultra-simple to install and adaptable to all pool types, they are available in both white and multiple colors.
EnergyLine Pro Fi Heat Pump for Always-Perfect Water
Full Inverter technology allows the heat pump to adapt to outdoor weather conditions in real-time to maintain water temperature at a lower cost. This technology provides up to 30% electricity savings. It uses R32 refrigerant, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 60% with zero impact on the ozone layer. The EnergyLine Pro Fi is very quiet and ensures high-precision adjustment between thermal comfort and energy economy.
AquaRite® UV LS Smart Control for Crystal Clear Water
Acting as the brain of the pool, this box controls everything from water treatment and regulation (pH, ORP, chlorine) to equipment like filtration pumps and lighting. By combining UV, low-salinity electrolysis, and hydrolysis, it guarantees clear water while reducing chemical additives to the absolute minimum. It features Wi-Fi connectivity for remote control, providing soft, pure water that can be safely discharged into wastewater drains.
Making the Right Choices for Tomorrow
Investing in these technologies means choosing technical excellence in service of a sustainable approach. Since its founding in 1925, the Hayward group has constantly innovated to offer a “fair and reasoned” management of swimming pools. Today, preserving the joy of swimming inevitably requires an eco-responsible pool that looks after both your finances and nature.
