A 230-volt pool pump is generally more efficient and can handle higher power loads than a 115-volt pump, making it better for larger pools or longer pump runs. It often runs cooler and can be more cost-effective in the long term, but installation may require special wiring. For small pools or simple setups, a 115-volt pump might be sufficient and easier to install.
