The WhisperFloXF VS pump joins an impressive list of smart, sustainable water solutions by Pentair named “Best New Product” at PSP Expo.

Pentair’s energy efficient UltraTemp ETi™ hybrid pool heater, which combines a pool heat pump with an ultra-high-efficiency gas-fired heater in the same unit to deliver superior energy efficiency, received the award in 2017.

The PSP Expo is taking place November 5 – 7, 2019 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans.
