BBB,

Thanks so much for your time on this! I am trying to save money through greater energy efficiency. My 2hp whisperflo is running at 29 psi with solar on and 22 with it off. This is with new cartridges in my Clean & Clear Plus 520. The estimated current energy cost of my pool is $2152.79 and that is only going to go up. The estimated energy cost with the new system would drop to $439.93.

They are also recommending a new zeolite filter that I am going to pass on right now (would require backwashing), although I am getting a little tired of opening and closing the filter cartridge on our large filter properly.

The biggest changes would be to remove the existing filter pump and the booster pump and replace them with variable speed and to repipe the water path to remove any sharp turns. The new filter pump should run at a higher flow rate than my current one due to lower tdh.

(Should we move this post to equipment?)
