    Hi All,
    Trying to decide between these 1HP pumps. Any thoughts or advice?
    Thanks,

    Both are great choices and really you can't go wrong with either one. Northstar has a very slight efficiency edge but the Whisperflow can handle a bit more suction loss without cavitation. Whisperflow is also easier to find as two speed version.

    Also, if it is a new pool, you might want to stick with all the same equipment since you can get a free extended warranty that way. Otherwise, you might want to go with the best price.
