    exactly what size pump/filter do i need

    We have the Intermatic mechanical timers. They are simple to operate and very reliable. Your electrician can handle this for you. Just let him know you will be purchasing a 2 speed pump and a heat delay for the heater.

    exactly what size pump/filter do i need

    See if you can get a model number for the pump you were quoted. Hayward does not list a 2 hp/2 speed in their Matrix series of above-ground pumps. Hayward does not list any 2 hp above ground pumps??? No luck with a Google or Bing search for Hayward Matrix and 2 hp pumps.

    Hayward filter

    You will normally see these filters paired with a Hayward Power Flow LX 40 gpm pump or the Hayward Power Flow LX SP1540C. Both models are a little less than 1/2 hp. Turn over rate for 15,000 gallons is 8 hours with this combination.
