Hello all, I have read many posts from this forum that has helped me quite a bit. So thanks.
Its that time of year (taxes) and we are trying to make responsible decisions this time.We have an old pool, it has an old cast Purex pump and impeller. It's so old that every time I take parts in to the pool store they have no idea what it is and they can't find it in any of the parts catalogs. In the last 2 years I have replaced the motor and had to replace the capacitor from that new motor as well. It now has a small leak behind the motor somewhere so instead of trying to fix it, we have decided to get a new pump.
Our goal this time is to get a pump that will save us $$$ every month/year. We have been reading a lot about the VS pumps but it seems to me that it may be overkill for our pool.
So my question is, what would be ideal for our pool? VS speed or Dual or just get another single speed?
Like I said, we have an old plain Jane pool. It is a 10,000 to 12,000 gallons. It has a 2" suction line from the pool and a 2" from the spa. The return lines are 1 1/2". We have a DE filter as well. Currently we have a 2HP motor.
We would really appreciate any help with this matter. We are lost.
Thanks,
Chris
