Scott Payne Custom Pools installs the Paramount PVR In-Floor Cleaning and Circulation System in every pool we build — no exceptions. The PVR uses flush-mounted nozzles built into the pool floor that pop up, rotate through 12 positions, and sweep 99% of your pool automatically. It also improves circulation from the bottom up, independently certified to save up to 30% on chemicals and energy for the life of the pool. The nozzles have no moving parts and are covered by Paramount's lifetime limited warranty.
We believe your pool should be a source of relaxation, not a chore. That is why we install the Paramount PVR system in every pool we build — not as an upgrade, but as a standard feature.
Why Paramount?
We believe your pool should be a source of relaxation, not a chore. That is why we exclusively install the Paramount PVR In-Floor Cleaning and Circulation System in every pool we build. Paramount has been the industry leader in automatic in-floor pool cleaning since 1964 — and their PVR system represents the pinnacle of that six-decade legacy.
We do not offer this as an upgrade or an option. It goes in every pool. Period. Because once you understand how it works and what it does for the long-term ownership experience, there is no logical reason to build a pool without it.
99% Automatic Cleaning
The PVR system cleans 99% of your pool automatically — guaranteed. No manual vacuuming. No robot to fish out and store.
30% Savings on Chemicals & Energy
Independently certified to save pool owners up to 30% on chemicals and energy for the life of the pool through improved bottom-up circulation.
No Moving Parts
The nozzles have no moving parts — just a simple pop-up mechanism that has proven itself over decades of real-world use.
Lifetime Limited Warranty
The Paramount PVR nozzles are covered by a lifetime limited warranty — because Paramount stands behind the system completely.
How the PVR System Works
The PVR system uses strategically placed, flush-mounted nozzles built directly into the pool floor and steps. When the system activates, these nozzles pop up and rotate through 12 positions, sweeping debris from every corner of the pool toward the main drain — cleaning 99% of your pool automatically, guaranteed.
When not in use, the nozzles retract completely flush with the pool floor and become virtually invisible, preserving the clean aesthetic of your pool's interior. There are no hoses to trip over, no robots to store, and no manual vacuuming required.
Beyond cleaning, the PVR dramatically improves water circulation by distributing heat and chemicals evenly from the bottom up. Traditional pool returns push water from the top down — which means the bottom of your pool is always the last place to receive fresh, treated water. The PVR reverses this, ensuring perfect chemical distribution and temperature consistency throughout the entire pool.

Frequently Asked Questions
It is standard. We install the Paramount PVR system in every pool we build — not as an add-on, but as a baseline feature. We do not build pools without it because we believe it is simply the right way to build a pool.
For the vast majority of pools, yes. The PVR cleans 99% of the pool automatically during the normal filtration cycle. Some clients with heavy leaf loads or specific landscaping situations may occasionally want to supplement with a manual vacuum, but for most pools, the PVR handles everything.
The PVR system is independently certified to save up to 30% on chemicals and energy compared to traditional pool circulation. Because it distributes heat and chemicals from the bottom up, your pump runs more efficiently and your chemicals work harder — which means you use less of both.
The nozzles are covered by Paramount's lifetime limited warranty. They are also designed with no moving parts — the pop-up mechanism is remarkably simple and durable. In our experience, nozzle failures are extremely rare. And when they do occur, replacement is straightforward.
No — the Paramount PVR system must be installed during construction. The nozzles are built into the pool shell and plumbing during the gunite phase. It cannot be retrofitted into an existing pool. This is one of the reasons we include it in every new build — it is a one-time opportunity.
Yes. The PVR system is designed and engineered specifically for each pool during the design phase. Nozzle placement is calculated based on your pool's exact shape, size, and depth to ensure complete coverage. It works equally well in freeform pools, geometric pools, pools with spas, and pools with tanning ledges.
