The reference single-speed pump runs for eight hours; the variable speed schedule is six hours on low, one on medium and one on high. The 25c and 40c examples scale the same energy use to different electricity rates. These are illustrative scenarios, not measured results for your pool or a guarantee of equal water turnover. Actual costs depend on speed settings, runtime, plumbing, filter condition and equipment flow requirements. Use your electricity usage rate including GST; fixed daily charges are excluded.

Where a chlorinator controls pump power, its schedule needs to be coordinated with the pump.
