- 💵 Monthly average (6 months): £46.80
☀️ Scenario 2: Extended Season Operation (March–October)
- Usage: 8 hours/day × 245 days
- Total hours: 1,960 hours/year
- Energy consumption: 0.75 kW × 1,960 hours = 1,470 kWh/year
- ✅ Annual running cost: 1,470 × £0.26 = £382.20 per year
- 💵 Monthly average (8 months): £47.78
♨️ Scenario 3: Year-Round Heated Pool Operation
- Usage: 10 hours/day × 365 days
- Total hours: 3,650 hours/year
- Energy consumption: 0.75 kW × 3,650 hours = 2,737.5 kWh/year
- ✅ Annual running cost: 2,737.5 × £0.26 = £711.75 per year
- 💵 Monthly average: £59.31
🌊 Scenario 4: Pool with Water Features (Higher Daily Runtime)
- Usage: 12 hours/day × 180 days (seasonal with extended feature operation)
- Total hours: 2,160 hours/year
- Energy consumption: 0.75 kW × 2,160 hours = 1,620 kWh/year
- ✅ Annual running cost: 1,620 × £0.26 = £421.20 per year
🎯 Real-World Applications
🏊 Large Residential Swimming Pools
The PPG Pump Deluxe 22 is perfectly sized for residential pools from 70m³ to 110m³. With a 22 m³/h flow rate, it provides complete water turnover every 3-5 hours depending on pool volume – meeting or exceeding industry recommendations for optimal water quality.
🛁 Pool & Spa Combinations
When your installation includes both a main pool and integrated spa or hot tub, the additional flow capacity of the Deluxe 22 ensures adequate circulation across both bodies of water, maintaining consistent water quality throughout the system.
🌊 Systems with Water Features
Waterfalls, fountains, deck jets, and other water features demand additional flow capacity. The 22 m³/h output provides headroom for feature operation whilst maintaining essential filtration circulation.
🔄 Demanding Filtration Requirements
Pools with heavy bather loads, located near trees, or subject to environmental debris benefit from higher flow rates that keep filtration systems working effectively. The Deluxe 22 delivers the capacity needed for challenging conditions.
🏠 Single-Phase Residential Installations
Unlike three-phase commercial pumps, the Deluxe 22 connects directly to standard UK residential electrical supply. This eliminates the significant cost of three-phase installation whilst delivering commercial-grade German engineering.
☀️ Salt-Chlorinated Pools
With specific engineering for salt electrolysis compatibility up to 0.5% concentration, the Deluxe 22 is ideal for the increasingly popular salt chlorination systems that deliver softer water and reduced chemical handling.
💡 Cost Savings Examples
📍 Scenario: Upgrading from an Older 1.1kW Pump
Many larger residential pools were originally equipped with inefficient 1.1kW pumps. The PPG Pump Deluxe 22 delivers comparable flow with significantly lower power consumption.
Old 1.1kW pump annual cost:
- ❌ Power: 1.1 kW
- ❌ Usage: 8 hours/day × 180 days = 1,440 hours
- ❌ Energy: 1.1 × 1,440 = 1,584 kWh
- ❌ Annual cost: 1,584 × £0.26 = £411.84
PPG Pump Deluxe 22 annual cost:
- ✅ Power: 0.75 kW
- ✅ Energy: 0.75 × 1,440 = 1,080 kWh
- ✅ Annual cost: 1,080 × £0.26 = £280.80
💰 Annual Saving: £131.04 📈 5-Year Saving: £655.20 💷 10-Year Saving: £1,310.40 ⏱ Typical payback on efficiency: 2-3 years
📍 Scenario: Replacing a 1.5kW Oversized Pump
Older installations often used oversized pumps “just to be safe.” Replacing a 1.5kW pump with the correctly-sized Deluxe 22 delivers substantial savings.
Old 1.5kW pump (extended season):
- ❌ Power: 1.5 kW
- ❌ Usage: 8 hours/day × 245 days = 1,960 hours
- ❌ Energy: 2,940 kWh
- ❌ Annual cost: 2,940 × £0.26 = £764.40
PPG Pump Deluxe 22:
- ✅ Power: 0.75 kW
- ✅ Energy: 1,470 kWh
- ✅ Annual cost: £382.20
💰 Annual Saving: £382.20 📈 5-Year Saving: £1,911.00 💷 10-Year Saving: £3,822.00
📍 Scenario: Comparing Against a Basic 0.75kW Pump
Even against pumps of equivalent power rating, the PPG Pump Deluxe 22’s superior hydraulic efficiency delivers more flow per kWh consumed. While direct energy savings may be modest, you gain:
- ✅ Higher flow rate – 22 m³/h vs typically 15-18 m³/h from basic 0.75kW pumps
- ✅ Better filtration efficiency – More water through your filter per hour
- ✅ Quieter operation – German-engineered noise reduction
- ✅ Longer service life – Premium components and construction
- ✅ 3-year warranty – vs typical 1-2 year warranties on budget pumps
💡 The value isn’t just in energy savings – it’s in superior performance, reliability, and reduced lifetime maintenance costs.
📍 Scenario: Year-Round Pool – Premium vs Budget Pump Lifespan
Budget pumps typically last 3-5 years under year-round operation. The PPG Pump Deluxe 22, with its German engineering and premium components, typically delivers 8-12+ years of service.
10-Year cost comparison (year-round operation):
❌ Budget pump approach:
- Initial pump: £350
- Replacement at year 4: £400
- Replacement at year 8: £450
- Energy (10 years @ £750/year): £7,500
- Total 10-year cost: £8,700
✅ PPG Pump Deluxe 22:
- Initial pump: £650
- No replacement needed
- Energy (10 years @ £712/year): £7,120
