    Pump, pool size and filter

    is this a good option: https://www.daveywater.com/us/product/silensorpro-us It is not cheap :) i can find it from 900 Euros to 1200 Euros depending on the supplier. Not cheap at all. Also i might have to do some repairs since 2 of my 3 weir door flaps are broken. I sense the skimmers suction is...

    sorry i meant -0,08 to 0 :) I think i never have gone below -0.25 before starting the pool. Anyway i think i did not introduce my pool. Photo Attatched. It has an irregular shape and continuous slope on the bottom.

    great thread. So putting aside the "turnover theory" how someone knows if the chlorine is well spread or fairly homogenized in the pool to be most effective? Or it does not make sense? I used to turn my 1HP pump for about 8 hours daily a few weeks ago during this summer. Now i only turn it 5...

The coldest months are generally December, January and February. When i say cold, normally dont go...

    Just one question. My pump is 1HP and my pool is around 26.500 gallons water. 5 hours is enough for a full turnover? It as been working for me. I believe from the table here at TFP is should be the minimum, maybe 6 hours? Im just trying to save some energy. Do you use any winter strategy to save...

    yes it moves rapidly, like a rapid spike up, and then stays at around 0.2 kg/cm2 with the pump off. It never goes 0.

    Thank you. So there is no problem in the pool filter pressure gauge getting on the red mark? I mean it is constant. For instance i dont really know when the filter is dirty because i dont have the pressure qeue changing. I just schedule a weekly cleaning or something like that. Even if i clean...
