🌊 Waterco Supastream 0.75HP Single Phase Pool Pump

High-Performance Circulation with Outstanding Efficiency for Medium-Sized Pools 🏊‍♂️

📋 Product Overview

The Waterco Supastream 0.75HP is a mid-range powerhouse designed for residential and light commercial swimming pools requiring enhanced water circulation. Delivering an impressive 11,400 litres per hour at 8 metres head, this single-phase pump offers the ideal step-up from entry-level models without significantly increasing running costs.

Engineered with Waterco’s renowned hydraulic efficiency technology, the Supastream 075 draws just 0.61 kW despite its increased performance capability. This remarkable efficiency stems from the precision-designed impeller and diffuser system that maximises flow while minimising turbulence and energy waste. The result is shorter filtration run times and reduced electricity consumption.

Built for the long haul, the pump features a glass-filled thermoplastic body with UV stabilisation, 316 stainless steel mechanical seal with secondary protection, and TÜV Rheinland certification to EN 60335-2-41. Whether you’re upgrading an existing pool system, installing new equipment, or seeking reliable circulation for commercial water features, the Supastream 0.75HP delivers the performance and durability you need.

💰 Usage Costs & Running Expenses

The Supastream 0.75HP offers remarkable efficiency – delivering 52% more flow than the 0.50HP model while consuming only 7% more electricity.

📊 Annual Running Cost Calculation

Power consumption: 0.61 kW
Current UK electricity rate: £0.2635 per kWh (Ofgem Price Cap, Q4 2025)

🏊 Scenario 1: Seasonal Residential Pool (6 Months)

Standard UK outdoor pool operation during swimming season (April–September):

• Daily run time: 8 hours
• Season length: 180 days (6 months)
• Annual operating hours: 8 × 180 = 1,440 hours

💵 Annual Running Cost:

0.61 kW × 1,440 hours × £0.2635 = £231.40 per year

That’s approximately £38.57 per month during the swimming season – just £15 more annually than the 0.50HP model for significantly greater flow.

♨️ Scenario 2: Year-Round Heated Pool

For indoor pools or heated outdoor installations requiring continuous circulation:

• Daily run time: 10 hours
• Operating days: 365 days
• Annual operating hours: 10 × 365 = 3,650 hours

💵 Annual Running Cost:

0.61 kW × 3,650 hours × £0.2635 = £586.71 per year

That’s approximately £48.89 per month for year-round operation.

🏢 Scenario 3: Light Commercial Application

For small commercial pools, holiday lets, or communal facilities with extended operation:

• Daily run time: 12 hours
• Operating days: 300 days
• Annual operating hours: 12 × 300 = 3,600 hours

💵 Annual Running Cost:

0.61 kW × 3,600 hours × £0.2635 = £578.68 per year

🎯 Real World Applications

🏊‍♂️ Medium-Sized Residential Pools

The Supastream 0.75HP excels in pools between 45,000 and 70,000 litres. With 11,400 litres per hour flow rate, a 60,000-litre pool achieves complete turnover in just 5.3 hours – comfortably meeting the recommended 6-hour maximum turnover standard.

🔥 Heated Pool Installations

The increased flow rate is particularly valuable for heated pools where efficient water circulation through heat exchangers and solar panels maximises heating efficiency. Faster turnover means more even heat distribution throughout the pool.

🌴 Holiday Let & Rental Properties

Ideal for Airbnb, holiday cottage, and rental property pools where reliable, low-maintenance operation is essential. The self-priming capability and robust construction minimise the risk of call-outs and tenant complaints.

🌊 Large Water Features & Fountains

The enhanced flow rate powers substantial water features, cascades, and fountain installations where visual impact requires significant water movement.

🐠 Commercial Aquaculture

Waterco designs the Supastream range specifically for aquaculture applications. The 0.75HP model suits medium-scale fish farming, hatcheries, and ornamental koi pond filtration systems requiring reliable, continuous circulation.

🔄 Upgrade from Undersized Pumps

Perfect replacement for pools where an existing 0.50HP pump struggles to maintain adequate circulation, particularly after pool modifications or increased bather loads.

💡 Cost Savings Examples

📍 Scenario: Efficiency vs. Flow Rate Comparison

The Supastream 0.75HP delivers exceptional value when comparing performance per pound spent on electricity:

Pump Model	Power	Flow Rate	Cost per 1,000L Pumped
❌ Generic 0.75HP (0.75 kW)	0.75 kW	10,000 L/hr	£0.0198
✅ Supastream 0.75HP	0.61 kW	11,400 L/hr	£0.0141

💰 29% lower cost per litre pumped compared to less efficient alternatives.

---

📍 Scenario: Upgrading from an Oversized 1.5HP Pump

Many pools run unnecessarily large pumps. Downsizing from a 1.5HP (1.09 kW) to a correctly sized 0.75HP Supastream:

Pump	Power	Annual Hours	Annual Cost
❌ Oversized 1.5HP Pump	1.09 kW	1,440 hrs	£413.65
✅ Supastream 0.75HP	0.61 kW	1,440 hrs	£231.40

💰 Annual Saving: £182.25
📈 5-Year Saving: £911.25
⏱ Pump Payback: 2.6 years from energy savings alone

---

📍 Scenario: Shorter Run Times with Higher Flow

Because the 0.75HP moves 52% more water than a 0.50HP, you can achieve the same turnover in less time:

For a 45,000L pool requiring one complete turnover:

Pump	Flow Rate	Run Time Needed	Daily Energy Use
❌ 0.50HP Pump	7,500 L/hr	6.0 hours	3.42 kWh
✅ 0.75HP Pump	11,400 L/hr	3.95 hours	2.41 kWh

💵 Daily Saving: 1.01 kWh = £0.27
💰 Seasonal Saving (180 days): £48.60

The higher-powered pump actually costs less to operate when run times are optimised.

📍 Scenario: Comprehensive Warranty Value

The Supastream’s industry-leading warranty structure provides substantial protection:

Component	Warranty Period	Typical Replacement Cost
✅ Pump Wet End	3 Years	£180–£250
✅ Motor	2 Years	£150–£300
✅ Mechanical Seal	1 Year	£60–£100

💷 Total Potential Protected Value: £390–£650
