I live in CT with the highest electric rates in the country and considering moving to a variable speed pump on my 27' AGP. Currently I have a 1.5hp hayward 240v pump on a manual timer and an "integrated" Hayward cartridge filter. If I go with a 1.5hp VS pump will it be ok to plumb it into the existing filter? My current setup is a 240v plug on a manual timer. Do I need any automation or can I just use the automation that comes with the pump? I also have an electric heat pump water heater. I assume I would have to turn up the pump when the heat pump is on? With a VS pool pump is the best scenario to run the pump as low as possible 24hrs/day?
Sorry for so many noob questions!
