💰 Usage Costs & Running Expenses
The Supastream 1.00HP delivers double the flow rate of the 0.50HP model while consuming only 44% more electricity – exceptional value for larger pool applications.
📊 Annual Running Cost Calculation
Power consumption: 0.82 kW
Current UK electricity rate: £0.2635 per kWh (Ofgem Price Cap, Q4 2025)
🏊 Scenario 1: Seasonal Large 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:
0.82 kW × 1,440 hours × £0.2635 = £311.12 per year
That’s approximately £51.85 per month during the swimming season.
♨️ Scenario 2: Year-Round Heated Pool
For indoor pools or heated outdoor installations with continuous operation:
- Daily run time: 10 hours
- Operating days: 365 days
- Annual operating hours: 10 × 365 = 3,650 hours
💵 Annual Running Cost:
0.82 kW × 3,650 hours × £0.2635 = £788.87 per year
That’s approximately £65.74 per month for year-round circulation.
🏢 Scenario 3: Busy Family Pool with Extended Use
For active households with teenagers, pool parties, or extended daily swimming:
- Daily run time: 10 hours
- Season length: 200 days (extended season with heating)
- Annual operating hours: 10 × 200 = 2,000 hours
💵 Annual Running Cost:
0.82 kW × 2,000 hours × £0.2635 = £432.14 per year
🎯 Real World Applications
🏊♂️ Large Residential Pools
The Supastream 1.00HP is the definitive choice for pools between 70,000 and 100,000 litres. With 15,180 litres per hour flow, an 80,000-litre pool achieves complete turnover in just 5.3 hours – comfortably meeting industry standards while allowing headroom for increased bather loads.
👨👩👧👦 Busy Family Installations
High-use pools with frequent swimming, pool games, and summer parties demand reliable, powerful circulation. The 1.00HP motor handles heavy bather loads without strain, maintaining crystal-clear water even during peak usage periods.
🔥 Heated Pool Systems
Enhanced flow rates maximise heat exchanger and solar panel efficiency. The rapid water movement ensures even temperature distribution throughout the pool, eliminating cold spots and reducing heating costs through improved thermal transfer.
🏡 Holiday Lets & Guest Houses
Properties with higher occupancy rates benefit from the robust circulation capacity. The self-priming operation and heavy-duty construction minimise maintenance requirements between guest changeovers.
🌊 Commercial Water Features
Substantial fountains, cascade features, and architectural water installations requiring significant flow rates. The 15+ cubic metres per hour output powers impressive visual displays with reliable, continuous operation.
🔄 Direct Replacement for Ageing 1HP Pumps
Standard 1½”/50mm connections and similar footprint to most existing 1HP installations. The included half unions simplify retrofit projects, often requiring no pipework modifications.
💡 Cost Savings Examples
📍 Scenario: Flow Rate Efficiency Comparison
The Supastream 1.00HP delivers exceptional litres-per-watt performance:
| Pump | Power | Flow Rate | Litres per Watt |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❌ Budget 1.0HP (1.0 kW) | 1.00 kW | 13,000 L/hr | 13,000 |
| ✅ Supastream 1.00HP | 0.82 kW | 15,180 L/hr | 18,512 |
⚡ 42% more water moved per watt consumed – the Supastream’s hydraulic efficiency translates directly to lower running costs.
📍 Scenario: Right-Sizing from an Oversized 1.5HP Pump
Many large pools run oversized pumps. Switching from a 1.5HP (1.09 kW) to a correctly sized 1.00HP Supastream:
| Pump | Power | Annual Hours | Annual Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❌ Oversized 1.5HP Pump | 1.09 kW | 1,440 hrs | £413.65 |
| ✅ Supastream 1.00HP | 0.82 kW | 1,440 hrs | £311.12 |
💰 Annual Saving: £102.53
📈 5-Year Saving: £512.65
⏱ Complete Payback: 4.8 years from energy savings alone
📍 Scenario: Reduced Run Times vs. Smaller Pumps
The 1.00HP’s superior flow allows shorter daily operation for the same water turnover:
For a 75,000L pool requiring one complete turnover:
| Pump | Flow Rate | Run Time Required | Daily Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❌ 0.75HP Pump | 11,400 L/hr | 6.58 hours | 4.01 kWh |
| ✅ 1.00HP Pump | 15,180 L/hr | 4.94 hours | 4.05 kWh |
⏱ Time Saved: 1.64 hours daily for virtually identical energy consumption. This frees up quiet time for swimming and reduces pump wear.
📍 Scenario: Upgrade Value Analysis
Comparing the cost-effectiveness of stepping up within the Supastream range:
| Model | Price | Flow Rate | Price per 1,000 L/hr |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supastream 0.50HP | £458.64 | 7,500 L/hr | £61.15 |
| Supastream 0.75HP | £473.46 | 11,400 L/hr | £41.53 |
| ✅ Supastream 1.00HP | £496.08 | 15,180 L/hr | £32.68 |
🏆 Best value per litre of flow – the 1.00HP offers the lowest cost-per-performance in the single-phase range.
📍 Scenario: Warranty Protection Value
The comprehensive warranty structure protects significant component values:
| Component | Warranty | Typical Replacement Cost |
|---|---|---|
| ✅ Pump Wet End | 3 Years | £200–£280 |
| ✅ Motor | 2 Years | £180–£350 |
