i got my pool up and running
i am working on balancing the chems now
but i have a few questions
i have a speck e90-ii pump
in an 11000 gallon pool
im trying to figure out the duration of time i need it to be set too
i beleive i read it needs to be at minimal enough to pump all the water threw the filter
meaning all 11000 gallons
according to http://www.poolcenter.com/speck-E90-DS.pdf
my pump depending on the head will pump anywhere from say 60-90 gallons p min
so 11000/75 then /60 min = 2.44 hours??
so a min 3 hours say
so why is it i am reading we are pumping 8+ hours?
i understand better circulation, filtering, dispursion
but 3x as long almost??
also
on my input i have this guy
what is it?
it looks like a diverter valve
i have the 1 skimmer tho
and today while vacuming the pool (first time)
i noticed a small gaurded round cap petruding out the bottom of the pool
is this a 2nd dary input?
if it is, well, i didnt dewinterize it, everything is pumping fine and working fine, so is it possible it wasnt winterized?
how would i check?
and what would i put my diverter on?
right now i put it in the middle, so 50/50
as i have no clue what it is
also, i took out the rubber winterizing plugs in the 2 outlets into the pool, but i do not have any nozzles to put in there place? should there be any?
thank you
