    Default Re: Replacement pump

    So I take it that my flow is limited to 42-50 gpm due to the 1.5" piping. Rate seems to vary depending upon source.

    Looking at the flow rates for the 1hp Hayward Maxflow and Superpump pumps, it looks like I could replace it with a 1/2 hp Hayward Northstar and get the same flow rate (seems to fall off at a slower rate too).

    Is that right?

    Or am I just getting excited by dreaming of going from .75 kw to .37 kw.

    Seems like it would be worth the $100 difference in price.
