The exceptional head pressure (19.7m maximum) supports dramatic water features, raised spillways, and multi-level fountain systems where lower-powered pumps cannot deliver adequate performance.

💡 Cost Savings Examples

📍 Scenario: Upgrading from an Older Inefficient Pump

Many older pool pumps operate at significantly lower efficiency levels. Upgrading to the EasyFit 45 can deliver substantial savings:

Comparison: Old 3.5 kW Pump vs EasyFit 45 (2.92 kW) Based on 1,440 hours annual operation (seasonal use)

Pump	Power Input	Annual Consumption	Annual Cost
❌ Old inefficient pump	3.5 kW	5,040 kWh	£1,325.52
✅ Speck EasyFit 45	2.92 kW	4,205 kWh	£1,105.91
💰 Annual Saving	0.58 kW	835 kWh	£219.61

📈 5-Year Savings: £1,098.05 📈 10-Year Savings: £2,196.10

📍 Scenario: Avoiding Three-Phase Installation

Many high-capacity pumps require three-phase electrical supply. The EasyFit 45 delivers equivalent performance on standard single-phase power, avoiding expensive electrical upgrades:

Typical Three-Phase Installation Costs:

• ❌ Electrical contractor fees: £800 – £1,500
• ❌ DNO (Distribution Network Operator) application: £200 – £500
• ❌ Additional wiring and components: £300 – £600
• ❌ Total typical cost: £1,300 – £2,600

✅ EasyFit 45 runs on existing single-phase supply – No upgrade required!

💷 Immediate Saving: £1,300 – £2,600 in installation costs

📍 Scenario: Reduced Installation Labour

Traditional pump replacements often require extensive replumbing. The EasyFit 45’s universal connection sets eliminate this:

Installation Type	Typical Labour Hours	Labour Cost (£45/hr)
❌ Traditional replacement (replumbing required)	6-8 hours	£270 – £360
✅ EasyFit 45 with matching connection set	2-3 hours	£90 – £135
💵 Labour Saving	4-5 hours	£180 – £225

⏱ Payback Period: The labour savings alone can offset a significant portion of the pump cost on day one.
