PPG Pump Deluxe 14 0.55kW 1 Phase

Introduction

As a retailer of premium pool equipment, I’m excited to offer the PPG Pump Deluxe 14 with a robust 0.55kW single-phase motor. This powerful yet refined pump delivers exceptional performance for residential and light commercial pool applications, combining reliability with advanced technology for today’s discerning pool owners.

Heritage of Excellence

The PPG Pump Deluxe 14 continues the distinguished legacy of the iconic Badu 90, which for decades set the gold standard in the swimming pool industry for reliability, efficiency, and quiet operation. This latest iteration takes that reputation for excellence and elevates it with contemporary innovations.

Innovative Design

What truly distinguishes this pump is its brilliant fusion of time-tested engineering principles with cutting-edge technology. The result is a modern, aesthetically pleasing pump that delivers superior hydraulic efficiency with remarkably quiet operation—allowing you to enjoy your poolside environment without disruptive mechanical noise.

Versatile Installation Flexibility

Engineered with installation versatility in mind, the PPG Pump Deluxe 14 can be positioned at a maximum of 3 meters above or 3 meters below water level. This flexibility provides numerous options for equipment placement, accommodating various pool designs, equipment room configurations, and space constraints.

Salt System Compatibility

Today’s pool owners increasingly choose salt chlorination systems, and the PPG Pump Deluxe 14 is specifically designed to excel in these environments. Built to withstand salt concentrations of up to 0.5% (5 grams/liter), this pump maintains its integrity and performance even in salt-chlorinated pools. Special corrosion-resistant materials and engineering ensure extended service life in these more demanding chemical conditions.

Single-Phase Convenience

The 0.55kW single-phase motor provides powerful, reliable performance while allowing for simple electrical connection to standard residential power supplies. This makes the Deluxe 14 an ideal choice for residential installations where three-phase power isn’t available but premium performance is still desired.

Applications

The PPG Pump Deluxe 14 is ideal for:

• Medium to large residential swimming pools
• Small commercial applications
• Salt-chlorinated systems
• Installations requiring flexible placement options
• Applications where noise reduction is essential
• Pool systems requiring increased flow rates

Regular inspection of the pump basket, periodic checking of connections, and maintaining proper water chemistry will maximize the lifespan of this premium equipment. The quality construction and engineering mean reduced maintenance needs over the life of the pump.

Enhanced Performance Features

The increased power of the 0.55kW motor provides excellent water circulation for medium to large pools, ensuring proper filtration and chemical distribution. The hydraulic improvements over previous generations result in more efficient operation, potentially reducing energy consumption despite the increased power rating.

This PPG Pump Deluxe 14 represents a superior choice for pool owners seeking reliability, efficiency, and quiet operation in a single-phase pump. Its salt system compatibility and flexible installation options make it particularly well-suited for modern pool systems where performance and user experience are priorities.
