AC/DC hybrid pool pumps built for real-world installs. Run on grid power today. Add solar whenever you're ready. No rewiring. No replacement. Just one smart pump that does it all.
Most pool owners want solar — but can't commit to a full off-grid setup on day one. Our hybrid pumps eliminate the all-or-nothing decision.
Connect to 120V/240V AC grid power and DC solar panels simultaneously. The pump switches seamlessly — zero interruption to water flow.
Built-in MPPT controller compatibility means your pump is ready for solar panels the day you buy it. Add panels on your timeline, not ours.
Brushless DC motors run at exactly the speed your pool needs — no more, no less. Cut energy use up to 80% compared to single-speed pumps.
Every pump ships with a wiring/plumbing checklist validated by licensed electricians. Photo-based configuration support included free.
Enter your pool volume, pipe run, and elevation. Our sizing tool calculates turnover rate, head loss, and recommends the exact model you need.

"Installed the 1.5 HP on my 18,000-gallon pool in Phoenix. Started on grid, added four solar panels last spring. My electricity bill for the pool went from $140/month to basically zero in summer. The dual-input feature made the transition painless."
"We run a community pool in South Florida. Upgraded three single-speed pumps to the 3.0 HP AC/DC units. Energy costs dropped 73% the first month. The photo validation support was a game-changer for our maintenance team — they weren't electricians."
"I was skeptical about the 'solar-ready' claim — heard that before. But the wiring was genuinely simple. My existing solar array connected in under 20 minutes. The pump auto-detected the DC input and just… ran. No controller fiddling, no tech support call needed."

Your pump is solar-ready from day one. Add panels whenever it fits your budget. No new pump needed.
An AC/DC hybrid pool pump contains a brushless DC motor that accepts both standard AC grid power (120V/240V) and DC power from solar panels. A built-in or external controller handles the conversion, letting you run on whichever power source is available — or both simultaneously for maximum flow.
Absolutely. Every ACDC pump is solar-ready out of the box. Start on grid power today and add solar panels whenever you're ready — no pump replacement, no controller upgrade, no rewiring. Just connect your panels to the DC input terminals and you're running on sunshine.
Use our free sizing calculator above. Enter your pool volume (gallons), total dynamic head (pipe run + elevation + fittings), and desired turnover time. The calculator recommends the exact pump model and flow rate for your setup. You can also call us at (855) 372-8467 — we'll walk through it together.
Yes. Our variable-speed pumps meet DOE Title 20 and ENERGY STAR standards. Many utility companies offer rebates of $100–$500 for qualifying variable-speed installations. Check with your local utility for specific programs — we can also help you find applicable rebates in your area.
All ACDC pumps include a 3-year manufacturer warranty covering the motor, seals, and controller. Our 3.0 HP commercial model includes a 5-year warranty standard. Extended coverage is available at purchase for all models.
That's the beauty of hybrid. When solar power drops off at sunset, the pump seamlessly transitions to grid power — no interruption to water circulation. You can also program it to run primarily during peak sun hours on solar and only use grid power for overnight circulation at low speed, minimizing electricity costs.
Many homeowners do. Each pump ships with a detailed wiring diagram and step-by-step plumbing checklist. For the electrical connection, we recommend a licensed electrician — especially for 240V hookups. Our photo validation service lets you send a picture of your setup, and we'll confirm everything looks correct before you power on.
