Update on my air leak This all started back in 2010 with air leaking into my system. I could see air it in the pump basket and it really bothered me. There were always little bubbles shooting into the pool. If you got into the pool, they were on you. The water was never clear when looking...

Update: Changing from a 1HP to 0.75 HP pump did stop the air leak for a short while. It did come back later in 2013. I have just lived with it for the last 5 years. Had to replace my liner this year and redid the pipes underground, still have the same air leak. A contractor recommended that I...

Wanted to know if I should be worried about a gap between the coping and the concrete apron around the pool. A lot of water ends up going between the two. Is this going to be a problem or should I put something like caulking I between the two

Update: I finally found a way to stop the suction side leak I have had the last three years!! I changed from a 1 HP Hayward Super Pump to a 0.75 HP Hayward Super Pump. No suction side air at all now!!!!

Update on this original question I asked or using a tarp with a mesh safety cover. I put down my mesh over and then layed the tarp over the top. Whenever I got water on top, I pumped it off. Just opened my pool. It is crystal clear. Just some worms on the bottom. I guess they crawled under the...

Thanks to everyone for all their help. I had absolutely no luck finding a 115 V two speed pump that would not be more powerful than my current pump. I ended up getting the Hayward 0.75 HP Super Pump to replace my Hayward 1.0 HP Super Pump. It is working great. In years past, I always had air...

http://www.aquasupercenter.com/products ... 21544.html What about the whisperflo 3/4 go? I can't get anyone to send out the superfluous. Looks like I can get the whisper flip next day. Would this be too much pump for my pool or will it work?

If I can't get a two speed, would the 3/4 hp super pump be adequate

The service factor on the Hayward Super Pump 0.75 HP is 1.0. I am really in to saving money on electricity over the life of the pump. I like to run my pump 24/7. I know that I will save money with the Hayward SP 0.75 HP over the 1 HP Hayward. If I can't find a way to get the Pentair 2 speed, I...

Having trouble finding the Superflo 3/4 HP dual speed. I found this site - http://www.sunplay.com/Pentair-SuperFlo ... 341111.htm but it states this is a 230V Would it be adequate to go with a Hayward Super Pump Single Speed 3/4 HP? I would want to make sure I had enough power to run my pool...

Thanks for the advice. I am looking for a two speed superflo 3/4 HP on the internet, but can not find a place to buy one. anyone know of a place to purchace?

Got into the wiring today and the current pump is 115 V

Any advice on a comparable two speed pump that may work? I guess I could just purchase the motor instead if that is easy enough to change out on my own

Not sure what my current pump is wired for. It is not a plug in type, but is hardwired. How can I tell? I have a volt meter, I guess I could check that out. 1 HP SF 1.1 model/serial number C48K2N143B1 I am not really looking to replace the motor. I would rather just get a new pump. Thanks...

Went to start up my pool for the season and my pump was just making a faint humming sounds. After a few seconds of that, the breaker went off in the house. I have been wanting to get a new pump, so maybe this is my chance! I have a Hayward Super Pump 1 HP 115V/230V. I have a Hayward Pro Serier...
