💰 Usage Costs & Running Expenses
📊 Annual Running Cost Calculation
While the impeller itself doesn’t directly consume power, replacing a worn impeller can significantly improve your pump’s energy efficiency by restoring optimal hydraulic performance.
Typical 7.50hp Pump Operation:
- Motor Power: 5.5 kW (7.50hp)
- Usage Scenario: Commercial pool – 10 hours/day, 6 days/week, year-round
- Annual Operating Hours: 10 × 6 × 52 = 3,120 hours/year
- Energy Rate: £0.26 per kWh (UK average, Q4 2025)
✅ Healthy Impeller (100% efficiency):
- Annual cost: 5.5 kW × 3,120 hours × £0.26 = £4,465 per year
❌ Worn Impeller (15% efficiency loss, requiring longer run times):
- Effective power needed: 5.5 kW × 1.15 = 6.33 kW equivalent draw
- Extended runtime compensation: Additional 30 minutes daily = 156 hours/year extra
- Annual cost: 5.5 kW × 3,276 hours × £0.26 = £4,685 per year
💵 Energy Savings from Timely Replacement: £220 per year
💡 Cost Savings Examples
📍 Scenario 1: Commercial Swimming Pool
Context: 25-meter municipal pool operating 12 hours daily, 6 days per week
Old Situation (Worn Impeller):
- ❌ Reduced flow requiring 20% longer filtration cycles
- ❌ Extended pump runtime: 14.4 hours/day instead of 12 hours/day
- ❌ Annual energy cost: 5.5 kW × 4,493 hours × £0.26 = £6,427
New Situation (Fresh Impeller):
- ✅ Restored optimal flow and pressure
- ✅ Standard runtime: 12 hours/day
- ✅ Annual energy cost: 5.5 kW × 3,744 hours × £0.26 = £5,356
💰 Annual Savings: £1,071 ⏱ Payback Period: Typically 1-3 months (impeller cost recovered through energy savings) 📈 5-Year Savings: £5,355
📍 Scenario 2: Luxury Residential Spa Complex
Context: Private spa with large pool, multiple water features, year-round operation
Comparison: Worn vs. New Impeller
❌ Degraded Performance (2-year-old worn impeller):
- Cavitation noise indicates damaged vanes
- Reduced pressure: 8 bar instead of 10 bar design pressure
- Pump struggles to maintain flow, motor works harder
- Increased vibration accelerates bearing wear
- Annual cost: Estimated 10% efficiency penalty = £4,912/year
✅ New Genuine Calpeda Impeller:
- Full design flow restored
- Pressure recovery to specification
- Smooth, quiet operation
- Reduced mechanical stress on motor and bearings
- Standard efficiency: £4,465/year
💰 Annual Energy Saving: £447 🔧 Additional Benefit: Reduced wear on motor and bearings extends overall pump lifespan
📍 Scenario 3: Industrial Water Circulation
Context: Cooling water system for manufacturing facility, continuous operation
❌ Delayed Replacement Strategy:
- Running impeller to failure
- Catastrophic failure causes 2-day emergency shutdown
- Emergency callout: £800
- Lost production value: £5,000-£15,000
- Expedited parts delivery: £150
- Total incident cost: £5,950-£15,950
✅ Preventive Replacement Strategy:
- Scheduled impeller replacement every 18-24 months
- Replacement during planned maintenance window
- Zero unplanned downtime
- Maintained optimal efficiency
- Scheduled maintenance cost: Impeller cost + routine labor (already budgeted)
💵 Risk Avoidance Value: £5,000-£15,000 per avoided failure event
🎯 Real World Examples & Applications
🏊♂️ Commercial Swimming Pools
Large municipal and private pools where consistent water circulation is critical for water quality and bather safety. The 7.50hp impeller handles flow rates of 80-120 m³/h, making it ideal for pools up to Olympic size. Maintains filtration turnover rates required by health regulations, typically requiring complete pool volume circulation every 4-6 hours.
Performance Expectations: Delivers 25-30 meters of head pressure, suitable for systems with elevated filtration equipment or water features requiring significant vertical lift.
🛁 Luxury Spa & Wellness Centers
High-end facilities with multiple spa pools, hydrotherapy equipment, and water feature systems. The impeller’s robust construction handles the demands of multiple zone valving and variable flow requirements inherent in complex spa installations.
Maintenance Considerations: Regular inspection every 12 months recommended due to continuous operation. Chemical balance monitoring essential to maximize impeller lifespan.
🌊 Water Park & Aquatic Facilities
Wave pools, lazy rivers, and activity pool systems where high-volume water movement is essential. The 7.50hp impeller provides the power needed for large-volume circulation while maintaining energy efficiency.
Typical Installation: Often paired with multi-speed motors for variable flow control, allowing adjustment of circulation rates based on bather load and time of day.
🏢 Commercial & Industrial Applications
Manufacturing cooling systems, process water circulation, and large-scale water treatment facilities. The impeller’s commercial-grade construction tolerates industrial duty cycles and varied water chemistry.
Reliability Focus: Preventive replacement intervals based on operating hours minimize costly unplanned downtime in production-critical applications.
