Ok, not just Texas, but maybe more the areas where the weather is still above 90 and water is at or above 82 degrees (love it) and still swimming. I am wonder how many hours I should set my manual timer to.
Right now its set to come on at 8AM and turn off by 5:30PM.
Should I make any changes.??
Thanks
Hey Pool Mike,
I am in the same situation. I am running my pump right now from 10am to 5pm at 60-70% on my SWG. I have plenty of chlorine. In fact, I need to turn down the %. 7 hours a day should do fine as long as the chemicals are balanced. In the winter, when pool temp is 50s and below, I only run the pump 4-5 hours a day at about 10-15%.
Hope this helps,
Mike
I run mine from 10am-6pm. That's what the pool startup company had it set for. When we first filled it with water, it ran 24/7 for 2 weeks. Can't wait to get that electric bill! :eek:
U and I both :DQuote:
