new pool, equipment seem ok??

I just signed a contract for a new in ground 20x34 size pool. It is listed at 17,700 gallons. Hayward equipment, 1.5 HP single speed pump, C3030 cartridge filter and a 250,000 BTU Hayward gas heater. Does the equipment seem OK? No SWCG.

Pump seems large for the size of pool. Plus it is not a two speed or VS. Unless you have a spa or water feature, there really is no reason for that size pump.

Also pipe size is 1.5 inches. I was wondering if any advantage if I ask for 2 inch pipe ?? Thx

Thanks for the reply. Yes there will be a water feature. 3 Sheer Descents.

Then definitely up size the pipe. 1.5" is much too small for that kind of water flow unless there are multiple parallel 1.5" runs to each feature/return from the pad to the pool. But on the suction side, I would go with 2.5" pipe. Do you have a plumbing schematic you can post?

Unfortunately No schematic as of yet. I will ask. Thanks very much.
