    30" filter; 60 GPM flow rate.

    *IF* your pool has no 'features', the 1HP 2 speed Whisperflo pump would perform extremely well for you on low, and would backwash acceptably on high.

    You could match a WFDS-3 or WFDS-4 with a TR-100 filter, and run on low speed, except when backwashing or vacuuming.
