💰 Usage Costs & Performance Economics

📊 Efficiency Impact of Impeller Replacement

When an impeller becomes worn, corroded, or damaged, pump efficiency can decline by 15-25%, directly increasing your energy consumption and operating costs. Installing a new genuine Calpeda impeller restores original flow specifications and can reduce energy consumption significantly.

⚡ Energy Consumption Comparison:

A 3.00hp (2.2kW) pump operating with a worn impeller may require up to 20% more runtime to achieve the same circulation as a pump with a new impeller, translating to measurable cost increases.

💷 Annual Operating Cost Analysis

📍 Scenario: Residential Swimming Pool (8m × 4m)

• Pump power: 2.2kW (3.00hp)
• Operating schedule: 8 hours/day × 180 days (May-October)
• Annual runtime: 1,440 hours
• UK electricity rate: £0.26 per kWh (Q4 2025 average)

✅ With New Calpeda Impeller (Optimal Efficiency):

• Annual energy consumption: 2.2kW × 1,440 hours = 3,168 kWh
• Annual cost: £823.68

❌ With Worn Impeller (15% efficiency loss):

• Requires 1.15× runtime for same circulation = 1,656 hours
• Annual energy consumption: 2.2kW × 1,656 hours = 3,643 kWh
• Annual cost: £947.18

💵 Annual Saving with New Impeller: £123.50

Over a 5-year service life, the cumulative savings from restored efficiency can exceed £600, easily justifying the investment in a genuine replacement component.

🎯 Real World Applications & Use Cases

🏊‍♂️ Residential Swimming Pools

Ideal for medium-sized domestic pools (8m-12m length), this 3.00hp impeller maintains consistent circulation for effective filtration, chemical distribution, and heat retention. Perfect for pools requiring 6-10 hour daily filtration cycles during swimming season, delivering flow rates of 15-20 m³/hour depending on system configuration.

♨️ Commercial Spa & Hot Tub Facilities

Provides reliable, continuous-duty performance in hotel spas, health clubs, and leisure center installations. The chemical-resistant construction withstands elevated sanitizer levels and higher operating temperatures typical of commercial hot tub environments, whilst the balanced design ensures quiet operation critical in guest-facing facilities.

🏢 Aquatic Centre Equipment Rooms

Supports professional pool installations in schools, sports centers, and municipal facilities where dependability and performance consistency are non-negotiable. The genuine Calpeda construction ensures compliance with equipment specifications and maintenance protocols required by facility management and health inspectors.

🔄 Pump Refurbishment & Overhaul

Essential component for comprehensive pump rebuilds during scheduled maintenance programs. When combined with new mechanical seals, bearings, and gaskets, a new impeller returns the pump to as-new condition, extending overall system life by 5-10 years and avoiding costly complete pump replacement.

🌊 Fountain & Water Feature Systems

Suitable for decorative water features, ornamental ponds, and commercial fountain installations requiring consistent flow and pressure. The corrosion-resistant materials perform reliably even in outdoor installations subject to temperature variations and occasional debris contamination.
