Frequently Asked Questions
How does the IntelliFloXF compare to the IntelliFlo3 VSF?
Both are Pentair variable speed + flow pumps that maintain a programmed GPM target automatically. The IntelliFloXF is designed for larger, feature-rich pools requiring higher flow at 3 HP / 3.95 THP with 2.5"/3" plumbing connections and 8 programmable settings. The IntelliFlo3 VSF (011076) is also 3 HP but uses 2" plumbing and targets standard residential pools. Choose the IntelliFloXF for high-flow systems with water features or large pools using 2.5–3 inch pipe.
