Reltech Ecoflo Variable Speed PRO V Series Pool & Spa Pump
Australian-made variable-speed pump — up to 70% lower running costs and 8-star efficiency
The Reltech Ecoflo Variable Speed PRO V Series is Reltech’s flagship energy-efficient pool and spa pump, engineered to reduce electricity running costs and carbon emissions by up to 70% compared to a traditional single-speed pump — without compromising performance when you need it. Built around a patented permanent magnet brushless DC motor, the V Series delivers ultra-quiet operation (62 dB(A) @ 1 m) with rated MEPS efficiency of 7 stars (V3 / V5) and 8 stars (V8).
Each pump runs three factory-set speeds — Eco for daily filtration, Medium for suction cleaners, High for backwashing and water features — fully adjustable between 1,000 and 2,850 RPM. The matched motor and pump wet-end are factory pressure- and performance-tested, fitted with a high-performance silicon carbide mechanical seal for long life in salt and fresh water, and built from corrosion- and UV-resistant materials. PRO+ models add an LED display with live RPM readout and a data port for direct communication with Reltech, Aquatek and Ecommander automation controllers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What’s the difference between PRO and PRO+?
The standard PRO models give you the full variable-speed motor with three adjustable speed settings. The PRO+ models add an LED display with live RPM readout and a data port for RS485 communication, allowing the pump to be controlled by Reltech, Aquatek or Ecommander automation systems. Choose PRO+ if you’re running a smart pool setup or planning future automation; choose PRO for full variable-speed operation at a lower price point. Note: the V8 (2.25HP) is only available as PRO+.
Q2: How much can I really save?
Reltech advertises up to 70% lower running costs and carbon emissions versus a single-speed pump, achieved by running on Eco speed for daily filtration. The exact saving depends on your pool size, climate, bather load and how long you run the pump — larger pools and warmer climates may need longer Eco runtimes or occasional Medium runs.
Q3: How do the three speeds work?
Each pump has three factory-set speeds you can use day-to-day: Eco for everyday filtration (recommended 8–10 hours daily), Medium for suction cleaners and gentle spa jets, and High for backwashing, manual vacuuming and water features. All three speeds are adjustable between 1,000 and 2,850 RPM via the on-pump controls.
Q4: Will it work with my existing chlorinator?
The V Series is designed to work with most chlorinators and pool equipment. Important: always use the pump’s on-board OFF button when servicing, not the chlorinator or wall socket. Rapid power-cycling via a chlorinator or GPO can damage the internal PCB and is not covered under warranty. Some older chlorinators may require updating to work cleanly with the V Series — contact us if you’re unsure.
Q5: What power supply do I need?
The entire V Series runs on a standard 240V / 10A 3-pin plug with a 2 m fitted lead — no dedicated 15A circuit required, even on the V8 PRO+ (2.25HP). Reltech recommends installation behind a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA, in line with AS 3000.
Q6: Does the V8 PRO+ require any special installation?
Yes — Reltech recommends fitting a check valve in the suction line of the V8 PRO+ to prevent back-pressure issues that can damage the impeller. Any pump installed above pool water level will also require a check valve.
Q7: Is it compatible with salt water?
Yes. The V Series is fitted with a high-performance silicon carbide mechanical seal designed for long life in both salt and fresh water.
Q8: How does this compare to the Reltech Premium PR or Platinum PLT Series?
The PR and PLT Series are single-speed pumps optimised for high flow at a lower upfront price. The Ecoflo V Series is the variable-speed alternative — it costs more upfront but delivers up to 70% lower running costs and 7–8 star MEPS efficiency. For most residential pools running 8+ hours per day, the V Series typically pays back its price difference within 1–3 years on electricity savings.
