    There are a couple pump lines for AG pools that I would recommend:

    Hayward Matrix
    Pentair OptiFlo
    Pentair Dynamo

    3/4 HP to 1 HP two speeds

    I think all are good pumps but I think the Matrix is a slightly better housing design that protects the bearings from moisture a bit better than the other two.

    Thanks so much, really appreciate it.

    Is there a link here to buy through amazon?
