Reno Pool Builders provides professional variable-speed pumps & filtration in Reno, NV for homeowners across the Truckee Meadows. Variable-speed pumps and filtration are where most of the running cost of a Reno pool actually lives, because the pump is the single largest energy consumer on most properties that have one.
A variable-speed pump uses a permanent magnet motor and, because power draw falls dramatically as speed drops, running longer at low RPM filters better and costs far less than running short at full speed.
It is also enormously quieter, which your neighbors will notice before you do. We replace single-speed pumps, repair motors, seals, and impellers, and rebuild tired equipment pads with properly sized manifolds and unions so the next service call is not an excavation.
On filtration we install and service cartridge, DE, and sand systems. Cartridge filters use no backwash water at all, which matters in a high desert where every gallon you dump has to be replaced from a hard-water tap.
DE gives the finest filtration and the clearest water. Sand is the low-maintenance option but the coarsest.
We size the filter to the pool's turnover requirement rather than to whatever the last guy left behind, and in Reno we plumb the pad so it can be drained and blown out cleanly every fall.
With 15+ years of experience, our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — gunite and shotcrete construction, PebbleTec and pebble aggregate finishes, polished quartz plaster, saltwater chlorination, variable-speed pumps, cartridge and DE filtration — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Reno and nearby communities including Sparks, Carson City, Fernley, Sun Valley.

Materials, equipment and how we do variable-speed pumps & filtration
The difference between variable-speed pumps & filtration that lasts and variable-speed pumps & filtration that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with gunite and shotcrete construction, PebbleTec and pebble aggregate finishes, polished quartz plaster, saltwater chlorination, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Reno job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of pool work in the Truckee Meadows means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
