Hello this is my first post and I appreciate any feedback - I am 1 week into my pool journey (deposit is in with pool builder and the engineering plans are being drawn up)
I will be having a heat pump and salt water generator installed with the new pool. The pool installer thinks the VSP is not worth it based on the requirements of the flow rate for the heat pump and salt water generator. He was strongly pushing sticking with the 1.5 Hayward super pump that he uses standard. Sounds like this is his old reliable pump and I am trying to get a sense of what the best path is. I am in NY so this won't be running all year round. He seems to think it's a much simpler system with less to go wrong without the VSP - His recommendation seemed pretty strong. My wife is upset with me for questioning the pool guy, and thinks we should not over complicate things. The pool will be a 16x32.
