The AstralPool Victoria Smart Connect VS is a variable-speed pool pump built to make filtration more efficient, quieter, and easier to manage. Unlike a fixed-speed pump that runs flat out regardless of conditions, this model matches its output to what the pool actually needs – cutting energy use, reducing noise, and improving day-to-day water circulation.
Built-in Wi-Fi and control via the Fluidra Pool app let you schedule run times, adjust speeds, and manage the pump from your smartphone, wherever you are.
AstralPool Victoria Smart Connect VS – Variable-Speed Pool Pump with Smart Control
The Astralpool Victoria Smart Connect VS is designed to match filtration to your pool’s actual routine. Three speed settings – 50%, 75%, and 100% – mean the pump is never running harder than necessary. During normal circulation periods, lower speeds keep things quiet and economical; full speed is there when you need it.
Wi-Fi is built in, so the Fluidra Pool app connects without any additional module. From the app, you can set schedules, change speeds, and keep tabs on filtration from your phone. For those looking to modernise their pump room, cut running costs, and gain real control over their pool without adding complexity, this is a straightforward upgrade.
Well suited to:
- Residential pools seeking more efficient filtration: an ideal replacement for a single-speed pump, delivering quieter, more economical performance without sacrificing water quality.
- Owners focused on reducing energy bills: variable speed prevents the pump from running at full power when the pool doesn’t need it, trimming consumption across the season.
- Installations close to living areas or outdoor entertaining spaces: at lower speeds, the pump runs discreetly – a real advantage for pools near patios, terraces, or garden rooms.
Upgrading from an earlier AstralPool Victoria model: the Victoria Smart Connect VS is fully compatible with previous Victoria installations, so no pipework changes are needed – just swap the pump and connect.
Technology and benefits of the Victoria Smart Connect VS
Efficiency matched to real pool demand
The permanent magnet motor at the heart of the Astralpool Victoria Smart Connect VS delivers strong efficiency across all three speed settings. Rather than drawing power like a traditional single-speed pump running continuously at full load, it scales output to the filtration level required at any given time.
In practice, this translates to lower running costs without compromising water circulation. At the lowest speed setting, absorbed power drops to just 0.15 kW (VS 100) or 0.25 kW (VS 200) – a fraction of what a conventional pump draws. The result, depending on how the pump is programmed and the specifics of the installation, is an energy saving of up to 85% compared to a single-speed equivalent.
App control via Fluidra Pool
With Wi-Fi integrated as standard, the AstralPool Victoria Smart Connect VS pairs directly with the Fluidra Pool app on iOS or Android. Scheduling, speed adjustments, and filtration management are all handled from your phone – no hub, no extra hardware.
A removable, multilingual HMI panel with an intuitive dial is also fitted to the pump itself, so local adjustments are just as straightforward when you’re standing in the pump room.
Quieter operation for everyday comfort
At low speed, the Astralpool Victoria Smart Connect VS operates below 40 dBA – more than 20 dBA quieter than a comparable single-speed pump. For pools in UK gardens where the pump room sits close to the house, a patio, or a neighbour’s fence, that difference is immediately noticeable.
Longer filtration cycles at lower speeds become genuinely unobtrusive, making it practical to run the pump during the day without disturbing anyone nearby.
Built-in protection for reliable year-round use
Smart priming, dry-run protection, and freeze protection are all included as standard. Smart priming avoids unnecessary energy use during start-up; dry-run protection shuts the pump down safely if water flow is lost; and freeze protection keeps the system running at low speed when temperatures drop, preventing damage to pipework during colder months – relevant for UK pool owners running their pools through spring and autumn.
Together, these features reduce the risk of damage from common operating conditions and give the pump a longer, more reliable service life.
Which pools is the Victoria Smart Connect VS right for?
The Astralpool Victoria Smart Connect VS suits residential pool owners who use their pool regularly through the season – typically May to September in the UK – and want to bring down running costs without compromising filtration quality. As a variable-speed pool pump, it adapts to the pool’s actual needs rather than running at full power all day.
It’s particularly well suited to pools where the pump runs for several hours daily. Efficient speed management lowers seasonal operating costs, improves acoustic comfort, and gives the owner more precise control over water circulation. Two models cover the range: the VS 100 for smaller installations, the VS 200 for larger pools with higher flow demands.

Frequently Asked Questions: AstralPool Victoria Smart Connect VS pool pump
How does the Fluidra Pool app connect to the pump?
The Victoria Smart Connect VS has Wi-Fi built in – no separate module or bridge required. Download the Fluidra Pool app on iOS or Android, connect to your home network, and you can set schedules, switch between the three speed settings (50%, 75%, 100%), and monitor filtration remotely. A local HMI panel on the pump handles manual adjustments when you’re on-site.
What is the difference between the VS 100 and VS 200?
The VS 100 (code 77946) has a rated output of 0.75 kW, a maximum flow of 17.6 m³/h at high speed, and connects to 50 mm pipework. The VS 200 (code 77947) steps up to 1.50 kW, 26.6 m³/h, and 63 mm pipe. The right choice depends on your pool volume, pipe diameter, and required turnover rate. If you’re unsure, our team at Pools&More can help you work it out.
Does the 85% energy saving apply in all cases?
Not automatically. The up-to-85% figure is based on comparison with a single-speed pump and assumes the Victoria Smart Connect VS is running at lower speeds for a significant portion of its operating hours. The more time the pump spends at 50% or 75% speed rather than full power, the greater the saving. Actual results depend on your pool size, filtration schedule, and installation.
