Re: Cartridge vs sand filter for 4 month season + pump sizin
so I ended up educating myself by speaking to Hayward Tech support along with looking at all the Brochures with flow rates.
So I would run at High speed when Heat pump goes on for a 1-2 hours a day depending on the season, sometimes more sometimes less, sometimes none at all, I would possibly need high for my T-Cell15 Salt Water Generator, but I could possibly have enough flow, and and aisde from backwashing and vacumming I would be sitting pretty at low speed, and since I like to leave my pump on 24/7, that will be nice.
No idea why the Hayward Rep would tell my guy that I would have trouble starting with it or that the 2-speed 1Hp Super Pump is a bad pump, I guess local guys don't have experience with 2-speeds, I'm assuming Aqualogic starts system in High speed, just like it kicks it in to high speed for Heater, and I'm guess I need to manually press a switch on the Pump when I want to Vacuum or Backwash.
Do you guys Wire a second light type switch to throw your 2-speed in to high speed?
Can it also be thrown in to high speed by button from Aqua Logic Control Box or Aqua Pod Remote?
I'm also having plumbing re-done inside Cabana, any reason not to go 2"?
