FAQ
Our expert staff answers customer's most asked questions.
How often should I replace my pool pump?
On average, a well-maintained pool pump can last 8 to 15 years. However, it’s essential to monitor its performance. If you notice reduced efficiency, increased noise, or frequent repairs, it may be time to consider a replacement.
Is it OK to replace a 1 HP pool pump with a 1.5 HP?
Yes, you can replace a 1 HP pump with a 1.5 HP pump, provided the exterior dimensions are the same. However, be cautious about the impeller; while it will fit, it won't pump more water since both motors turn at the same RPM.
How many HP pumps do I need for a pool?
The horsepower (HP) of your pool pump should match your pool size and flow rate, which usually ranges from 40 GPM to 80 GPM. Generally, pool pumps range from 0.75 HP to 3 HP. Opting for a higher GPM flow rate can help reduce wear and tear on your pool equipment.
