Re: Is my sand filter sized right?
Update to my thread:
My 1-HP Pentair (motor) bit the dust this spring. I was running the pump intermittently, getting ready to do some pre-spring maintenance. I did not use the pump over the winter. It ran for a few days before crapping out.
I'm trying to decide whether to replace the motor only and keep the same pump, or change the pump/motor and filter back to DE.
Pool season doesn't start until late April/Early May so I have time to think.
What would you do?
~18K gal IG Gunite -- 1-HP Pentair Whisper Flo with new 2-speed motor. Intermatic T1000 Dual Speed Timer -- Tagelus 60D sand filter
Hayward SWCG (up to 40K gal.) -- Polaris 280 and booster pump -- Rainbow (now Pentair) in-line chlorine Feeder.
