The XtremepowerUS 75035-V is a 2 horsepower two-speed pump for in-ground pools: full speed for the heavy jobs, half speed for everyday filtering. This review is research-based: we did not test the pump, and we could not find a manufacturer manual to download, so the specifications come from the Amazon listing. We add our own checks and what the U.S. Department of Energy says about two-speed pumps. No prices, and no star ratings or customer reviews copied across.

Specifications: the Amazon listing for XtremepowerUS part 75035-V (ASIN B01AAWQRUY), checked October 2026. The title says 5,820 GPH and one bullet 5,850 GPH; 97 GPM works out to 5,820 GPH (our calculation).
A two-speed pump that can filter at half speed and switch to full speed for cleaning jobs, on 230 V. That makes it a step up from a single-speed pump on energy, but less flexible than a variable-speed pump. Because the specs come only from the listing, check the details that matter for your pool, such as the fittings and your filter's maximum flow, before you buy.

Is the XtremepowerUS 2HP dual-speed a good fit for your pool?
Good fit if
- You have an in-ground pool with 230 V at the equipment pad
- You want a low speed for filtering without programming a variable-speed drive
- Your filter is rated for this pump's flow at full speed
Look elsewhere if
- You have an above-ground pool or only 115 V
- You want to fine-tune the speed (a variable-speed pump does that)
- You want detailed manufacturer documentation before buying
Two speeds: what the numbers say
The listing gives 7.5 amps at high speed and 2.1 amps at low speed on 230 V. So at half speed the motor draws less than a third of the full-speed current (our calculation; current is not the same as power, but it shows the direction). The U.S. Department of Energy explains why: when you halve a pump's speed, the flow halves but the power drops to about one-eighth. More: dual-speed pool pumps explained.
The catch, also from DOE: if the low speed cannot circulate the pool well enough, the pump ends up running on high and the savings disappear. Test it: run low speed and check that the skimmers pull the surface in and the water stays clear (our advice).
Is 2 HP the right size?
The listing rates it at about 97 GPM at full speed. Bigger is not automatically better: match the flow to your pool's turnover and stay under your filter's maximum flow (our advice). At 97 GPM, a 25,000-gallon pool would turn over in about 4.3 hours at full speed (our calculation). That is theoretical flow math, not a recommended run time: your filter's capacity and the resistance of your plumbing decide the real flow. If your filter is rated lower than that, a smaller pump or a variable-speed pump fits better. Sizing step by step: what size pool pump do I need.
Two-speed pumps and the DOE rule
DOE's 2023 rule works by total horsepower (THP), not the "HP" on a listing. Pool pump motors from 1.15 to 5 THP manufactured on or after September 29, 2025 must have variable-speed control; motors from 0.5 to under 1.15 THP follow from September 28, 2027. The listing gives "2 HP" but no THP, so we cannot say which group this motor is in, or when your unit was made (our reading). If it matters to you, ask the seller for the THP on the nameplate and the manufacture date. Background: are single-speed pool pumps being phased out?
Install and safety
It runs on 230 V, so it needs a proper hard-wired circuit; pool pump circuits need GFCI protection under the National Electrical Code, as pump manuals such as Polaris's PB4-60 note. Have an electrician do the wiring (our advice). The listing says the motor is thermally protected and the pump is UL listed, with a drain plug at the bottom for draining. Water temperature limit: 104°F, according to the listing. Background: pool pump voltage, 115V vs 230V.

The trade-offs
What we like
- Low speed for filtering, high speed for cleaning
- Low speed draws 2.1 A versus 7.5 A at full speed (listing)
- UL listed with thermal protection
- Slip-on fitting adapter included
Worth knowing
- Only two speeds: no fine-tuning
- No manufacturer manual found online
- Listing specs give 230 V: check the label
- THP not listed, so its DOE status is unclear
Who should buy the XtremepowerUS 2HP dual-speed?
Buy it if
- You want lower running costs than a single-speed pump without programming
- You have 230 V and an in-ground pool
- Your filter handles about 97 GPM
Skip it if
- You want maximum savings and fine control: choose a variable-speed pump
- Your pool is above-ground or small
Consider something else if
- Pools with heaters, features or a pressure cleaner: a variable-speed pump lets you set each job's speed
Common questions
What are the two speeds?
3,450 RPM (high) and 1,720 RPM (low), according to the listing.
Does it run on 115 V?
The listing's specifications give 230 V, 60 Hz, although one listing field says dual volt. Check the label of the unit you receive.
How much flow does it give?
The listing says about 97 GPM (around 5,820 GPH) at full speed.
Is a two-speed pump still allowed?
It depends on the motor's total horsepower, which the listing does not give. Motors of 1.15 to 5 THP manufactured on or after September 29, 2025 must have variable-speed control; smaller motors follow from September 28, 2027.
What we could not confirm
Honest gaps. We could not confirm these from a manufacturer document, so we do not state them.
- Total horsepower (THP) and service factor
- Warranty terms
- WEF efficiency rating
- Manufacture date of current stock
Our verdict
A practical two-speed pump if you have 230 V and want lower running costs than a single-speed pump without any programming. It is less flexible than a variable-speed pump, the documentation is thin, and without a published THP its status under the DOE rule is unclear. We do not give pumps a Fit Score; this verdict is based on the listing specifications and DOE's explanations.
