    Default Re: Too much booster pump

    ChemGeek,

    Back in November I emailed polaris/zodiac about this unit as I currently have a 1hp pump running my pool. Below is the reply. I have the pdf file still if you are interested.

    Thanks for writing. The minimum pump size recommended for the 360 is a 1 1/2 hp, you may be able to get by with your 1 hp, but we can only recommend the 1 1/2 hp. Will you have a valve where you can direct all the water flow to the 360, or will you have to plug your other return lines to divert the flow to the cleaner? If you have to plug those other return lines to direct most of the flow to the 360 then you may want to get a cleaner that requires a booster pump so you don't have to plug those other lines. I attached a plumbing and install guide for the pumps and cleaners, this will give you a better idea how the plumbing should look.



    Please let us know if there's any more questions or concerns.

    Thanks,
