Product Overview

Handle demanding pool circulation with the Hayward TriStar XL variable-speed pump. Designed for large residential pools, commercial applications, and installations with water features, this complete pump combines adjustable performance with integrated digital controls. An oversized strainer basket, detachable strainer housing, and large union connections support flexible equipment layouts and convenient maintenance. Operate it independently or connect it to compatible automation for coordinated pump scheduling and speed control.

Ideal For

Large residential pools, professionally designed commercial circulation systems, and water-feature installations requiring higher flow rates.

Key Features

Integrated Universal Display provides straightforward programming and diagnostic information.

Totally enclosed fan-cooled motor supports dependable operation.

Chemical-resistant Viton seal supports durability in treated pool water.

Detachable strainer housing allows separate plumbing configurations where professionally designed.

The digital display can be rotated or wall-mounted to improve access on crowded equipment pads, while programming lockout helps protect operating settings from unauthorized changes.

Benefits

Match pump speed to circulation demand instead of continuously running at maximum speed. Simplify debris management with a generous basket. Adapt installation layouts without being limited to a fixed strainer arrangement.

Lower-speed operation can reduce energy use when minimum equipment flow requirements are maintained. Actual savings depend on plumbing, programmed speeds, runtime, and local electricity rates.

Warranty & Compatibility

Important Purchase Notice

This Hayward Expert Line product is available through pool professionals or in-store. Contact Pool Supply Depot to confirm purchasing options and warranty eligibility before ordering.

Compatibility

Requires 208–230V single-phase power. Supports Hayward Omni, OmniX, and compatible Pentair/Jandy controllers through Universal Comms. Verify exact controller compatibility and configuration requirements.

Select using the pump curve, required flow, and total dynamic head. Matching horsepower alone does not establish replacement compatibility.

Have your installer verify minimum flow requirements for heaters, chlorinators, and other connected pool equipment at each programmed pump speed.

Installation

Professional installation is required. Confirm wiring, circuit protection, grounding, bonding, and hydraulic suitability. Provide drainage, motor ventilation, and service access. Existing plumbing alignment and electrical service must be verified before replacement.
