Something that I have miscalculated is that I have 1.5" copper piping system where it is upgraded to 2" when it comes to the above ground. As such, i suppose, the 60 sf filter might be overkill. Maybe I should consider Pentair FNS Plus 48 DE Pool Filter. What do you think?

Sounds great, I will try to set it at 1,000 RPM and see what would be the outcome. So, just for peace of mind, do you still recommend that I upgrade to a bigger filter system?

Well, As for your question, regarding the high flow need, I originally had a full rated Hayward north star pump that was working at 3450 RPM for 8 hours a day which was consuming lots or electricity (considering 16 cents a KWh here in Anaheim, It was expensive). I installed the Pentair...

Hi mas985, I checked the electric sockets and it looks like the pump socket has two 110s tied together as illustrated by kiss4afrog in the picture above.

Thanks, the Model is SP4007x10 as you stated it. As for the voltage, I am not sure. I don't have any equipment to measure the voltage!!

Its SP1607 Z1MNSC - - - Updated - - - Here is a picture of the pump specs:

Thanks for your advices. I have currently 1 HP Hayward Northstar. Please let me know what 2 speed motor do you recommend? Thanks

Thanks for your response. However, I have cross referenced the prices for a two speed motor and the Pentair SuperFlo VS Variable Speed Pump or Sta-Rite SuperMax VS Pump, and the difference is not too much. As I stated, I am seeking advice as which of the pumps mentioned above would best fit for...

Hi everyone, I am kind of skeptical as which of the following pumps I should consider purchasing. The reason for replacing my current 1 HP single speed pump is to conserve in electricity usage and consequently lowering my electricity bill. 1. Pentair SuperFlo VS Variable Speed Pump for $660 2...
