    How much hp for a replacement pump

    Hi, I have 2 pumps (pool and spa) that went out last year. They both were jandy phpu 1.5 pumps. Thanks to someone’s recommendation here, I decided to replace them with two new CaliMar pumps. They have two options, the 1.5 hp and the 3hp. The 1.5 uses 1 1/2” piping which is what I have. The...

    Which Pentair heat pump is right for my pool?

    I decided to go with a heat pump this year to heat my pool. My pool is 20x40 (free form) with a spa with an overflow. I approximate it's about 34,000 gallons. I was deciding originally between Pentair and Aquacal. I decided to go with the Pentair because I couldn't find any major differences...
