So I’m using a 2-speed 1.5HP Hayward Powerflo Matrix pump and a Hayward s244T sand filter on a 22,000 gallon above ground pool. I have a small question regarding this.
I have one skimmer, and one return. The pump is rated at 91GPM at 10 feet of head. However, my filter has a flow rating of 62GPM according to the vari-flo multiport valve. Wondering if my pump is simply too powerful to the filter on high speed, and I should strictly run on low. All of the pool equipment is located directly next to the pool, and I have no heaters or any other inline accessories installed aside from pump and filter.
The water pressure after backwashing is insanely powerful. The pump does not starve for water if the water level is halfway up the skimmer however. Just want to ensure my pump isn’t preventing proper filtration.
