We are converting to SWG. We have a 40000 gallon vinyl lined pond. Been using a chlorine inline tab flow jug, sorry not sure correct name, but purchased a RJ 45 SWG installing soon. Need advice on pump. We have a single speed Waterway 1.65 HP but it will not self prime and is a pain to keep running. It will loose pressure and have to keep water trickling in pump from hose to keep it from running dry.
Our sand filter is 1.5 inch intake
We have 2 skimmers with 1.5 hose runs 8 feet long about 5 feet or less rise to water from pump
Have two skimmers run two one hose with check valve inline to attempt to hold prime.
Would like to keep under 600.00 for pump.
Also old pump has 2 inch inlet/outlet then reduced to 1 1\2.
Thanks
