You can run the booster pump 24 hours if you like, but it's made to generate high pressure, not high water flow. In order to keep it quiet hydraulically you'll probably need to put a very small eyeball on that return (1/2"). I don't know that you'll see any reward from this that would outweigh the electrical cost of running the second pump unless you've got a dead spot in the pool that the other returns just can't disturb. If you have a timer on it I could see running it an hour or two a day to help stir things up but beyond that I don't see any benefit. Is there a particular problem you were trying to solve here or are you just looking for the most circulation possible?
No problems, I guess just the most circulation while I am gone for two weeks. Hopefully I can have someone come over every 5-7 days or so to check the baskets. I do not seem to get a lot of debris in the pool based off what is happening now. Also with cold weather coming, is there any prep work I need to do to my piping? Should I cover the pips as you do with house plumbing?
