Pentair WhisperFlo® VST Variable Speed 2.6HP Pool Pump

The Pentair WhisperFlo® VST is a high-performance variable speed pump designed to deliver superior circulation and energy savings for residential pools with high-flow requirements. Featuring a 2.6 THP (Total Horsepower) permanent magnet motor, this pump provides the massive hydraulic power needed for large pool volumes, complex water features, and expansive filtration systems while operating far more efficiently and quietly than traditional induction motors. The VST model is built with the iconic, thick-walled WhisperFlo body made of glass-reinforced thermoplastic, ensuring it remains impervious to chemical corrosion and extreme outdoor conditions. It offers a user-friendly onboard digital interface for scheduling and speed adjustment, and its universal compatibility makes it an ideal replacement for both older WhisperFlo and SuperFlo models. The design includes the oversized strainer basket and the signature Cam and Ramp™ lid for effortless visual inspections and maintenance. Due to the heavy-duty industrial motor, precision drive electronics, and the density of the reinforced polymer wet end, the unit is constructed with substantial professional-grade heft. The Pentair WhisperFlo VST 2.6 HP pump weighs approximately 50 pounds, serving as a quiet, powerful, and durable hub for modern aquatic systems.
