The first and only Adaptive Flow™, self-priming pump

The Nautis™ VSF optimizes every aspect of pool pump ownership. While Nautis™ VSF is the only available pump to feature Adaptive Flow™ control using Eco-Flow® technology, it’s also a convenient drop-in replacement for both Hayward® Super Pump® and Pentair® SuperFlo® and WhisperFlo®.

Optimizing your pool operation

The Nautis Motor Control Unit (MCU) is the intelligence layer behind the Nautis VSF platform, continuously optimizing pump performance to deliver precise, flow-based operation. Unlike conventional variable speed pump controllers that rely solely on motor speed, the Nautis MCU utilizes H2flow's advanced Eco-Flow™ technology to monitor system conditions in real time and automatically adjust pump output to maintain the desired flow rate. Whether the system experiences filter loading, changing hydraulic conditions, blocked skimmers, or partially closed valves, the MCU compensates automatically to ensure consistent circulation and turnover.

By maintaining target flow rather than fixed speed, the Nautis MCU maximizes energy efficiency while improving filtration performance and overall pool health. The result is reduced energy consumption, lower chemical demand, extended equipment life, and simplified maintenance for both service professionals and pool owners.

Maximized Energy Saving

Optimizing pump speed and heater usage based on the flow rate typically results in significant energy savings.

Reduced Equipment Wear

Running the motor at the required speed - and not exceeding it - will result in prolonged equipment life.

Optimal Chemical Usage

If the speed is set too high, unnecessary chemical usage occurs. With Nautis VSF, the speed is optimized, meaning chemical usage is, too.

Adapts to Changing Conditions

In an effort to maintain constant flow, Nautis VSF will sense - and adapt to - dirty filters and other conditions that reduce the flow rate.

Mobile Compatibility

Ease of use with the user-friendly BlueSync mobile app! BlueSync allows for simple setup and control of your Nautis pool pump.

Made in the USA

We are committed to the quality, sustainability, and stewardship of North American manufacturing... principles that are reflected in the Nautis VSF pump.

Stay Connected with BlueSync


The BlueSync app transforms the Nautis VSF and Nautis MCU into a fully connected, intelligent pool circulation system. Through an intuitive mobile interface, users can monitor real-time flow rates, pump performance, energy consumption, and system status from virtually anywhere. BlueSync simplifies setup and daily operation by allowing users to adjust settings, schedule operation, and receive alerts without needing to access equipment at the pool pad. Combined with the adaptive flow capabilities of the Nautis platform, BlueSync provides unmatched visibility, convenience, and control, helping pool owners and service professionals optimize performance while reducing maintenance time and operating costs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Nautis™ VSF pump?

Nautis™ VSF is the world's first adaptive constant-flow variable-speed pool pump. Rather than operating strictly by RPM, it measures actual water flow and adjusts motor speed automatically to maintain the GPM selected by the user. It is engineered for residential and commercial pools and spas.

What makes Nautis™ VSF different from other variable speed pool pumps?

Traditional variable-speed pumps regulate motor speed, but they do not necessarily know how much water is actually moving through the system. Nautis™ VSF uses Eco-Flow® technology to monitor real-time flow and automatically adjust RPM to maintain the desired GPM as system conditions change.

Is the Nautis™ VSF a drop-in replacement?

In most applications, yes. Nautis™ VSF is designed to replace common existing pool pumps using standard plumbing connections, helping minimize changes to the equipment pad and installation process.

How much energy will I save?

Energy savings can reach up to 90% compared with a traditional single-speed pump. Actual savings will vary based on factors such as pool size, operating schedule, flow requirements, and local electricity costs.

Does Nautis™ VSF work with my existing automation system?

Most likely, yes. Nautis™ VSF is designed to integrate with most major pool automation platforms, allowing it to operate within many existing pool-control configurations.

Can I install Nautis™ VSF myself?

Installation is designed to be straightforward. A qualified pool professional can install the Nautis™ VSF, while experienced DIY users who are comfortable working with pool plumbing and electrical equipment may also be able to complete the installation.

What is the warranty on the Nautis™ VSF?

Nautis™ VSF includes a manufacturer's warranty. Refer to the current warranty documentation or contact H2flow Controls for complete coverage, eligibility, and terms.

How does Eco-Flow® technology actually work?

Eco-Flow® continuously monitors actual water flow and compares it with the GPM target you select. As conditions in the pool system change, the technology adjusts motor speed automatically to maintain the intended flow as precisely and efficiently as possible.
