For the second year running, Hayward Industries Inc., a leading manufacturer of residential and commercial pool equipment was awarded the Energy Star Partner of the Year Award by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently introduced a new metric, known as weighted energy factor (WEF), designed to calculate pool-pump energy efficiency in a more realistic way. According to tests, Hayward produces one of the most energy-efficient variable-speed pumps (VSPs) on the market, including models with more than one horsepower that achieve the highest WEF scores in the industry.

Further, all Hayward VSPs outperform Energy Star requirements by an average of 44 per cent, saving pool owners up to 90 per cent on energy costs annually over single-speed pumps.

“Winning the Energy Star Partner of the Year Award is always an honour, but with new pool-pump efficiency regulations on the horizon, it is more important than ever to lead by example,” said Hayward’s global product manager for pumps Scott Petty.

In addition to innovative pump technology, Hayward is also a vocal contributor to the energy efficiency conversation, launching its new Pool Solutions app, which highlights the advantages of Energy Star-certified pool pumps and helps pool professionals sell them.

“I salute the 2020 Energy Star award winners,” said Anne Idsal, EPA principal deputy assistant administrator for air and radiation. “These leaders demonstrate how energy efficiency drives economic competitiveness in tandem with environmental protection.”
