    which Hayward pump do I want?

    which Hayward pump do I want?

    Yes, the pump is keeping the pool clean now. I am looking because the pump is very loud and on it's last leg. I have no idea how old it is and am being proactive about replacing it. What pump would you recommend for me?

    I was hoping you could tell me about the hp. Aren't there recommendations based on how many gallons you have? I was told I needed a 1hp but I don't really know. What is you overall recommendation if I avoid replacing the motor?

    which Hayward pump do I want?

    Thanks for the info Mark, that is excellent! I have a few follow up questions for you... Seeing how I have a heater, are there any restrictions on minimum GPM that rule out any possible choices? My pool guy suggests I should be using 1hp instead 3/4hp, do you concur? The energy costs given...

    which Hayward pump do I want?

    It's time for a new pump and I need some help finding the right pump for my pool. I have a 16x32x8 chlorine pool with a Hayward heater. Does 1hp sound right for my pool size? Can someone break down the differences between these models? EcoStar EcoStar SVRS TriStar Super II Super Pump Max-Flo...

    Klean Strip Green Muriatic Acid

    Tried that also but no luck. Probably has to do with New York state. Any other ideas or should I try buying online?
