Pentair is a company that knows its way around the pool and spa industry since it has been around for over 40 years. Although water technologies is now Pentair’s primary focus, the company has been responsible for many different types of product lines over the years. Pentair has developed into such a great company because of its incredible ability to embrace change and to roll with the punches as time moves forward. 
One Pentair product line that has been able to constantly evolve is their line of pool pumps. One pool pump that stands up to the competition is the Pentair Challenger High Flow Pool Pump. If you are looking for a pool pump that is user friendly than the Pentair Challenger is a great choice.
One thing that can ruin a relaxing afternoon by the pool is the distraction of a loud and annoying pool pump. With the Pentair Challenger High Flow Pool Pump you will never have to worry about noise pollution since the low friction design cuts down big time on the noise output. In addition to quiet operation, the Pentair Challenger is energy efficient which will save you money in the long run. No need to worry about the quality of parts or construction, the Pentair Challenger is rugged and durable and made of thick thermoplastic that is resistant to corrosion.
One of the nicest things about the Pentair Challenger High Flow Pool Pump is how easy it is for the customer to install or take apart. To winterize the pump you will need to take off the power end as well as the thumbscrew drain plugs, both of which are easily removable without tools. The slim design and unibody swimming pool pump housing make this pump super easy to install. The Pentair Challenger High Flow Pool Pump has a 2 inch port with a huge strainer basket with a see through lid. The strainer lid has a big handle with a comfort grip which is great for people with arthritis. Even though the Pentair Challenger only has a ¾ horsepower motor, its one of a kind diffuser and impeller make up for the low pressure and create excellent hydraulic flow. The screws on the impeller even stop reverse spinning of the impeller when it is in back flow mode.
If you are looking for a pool pump that is easy to maintain and not too pricey the Pentair Challenger High Flow Pool Pump would be a great choice. Most online retailers sell this particular pool pump for between $400-450; a fair price for all that this unit can do. You even get the reassurance of a one year manufacturers warranty, which covers any broken parts or mishaps during the course of 12 months.
