I have a Pentair Whisperflo 1HP pump that has bit the dust. It is at least 8+ years old. The motor burnt out beyond repair.
I am looking to replace the pump and am up for suggestions. I have a 23K gallon in ground pool, don't need to run any water features or cleaners, and the 1HP seemed to move the water just fine. I was able to adjust valves if I wanted to manually vacuum to get enough suction at that skimmer.
I am not against going up in HP if recommended. Should I go back to the same pump or change it up? I would like to keep it under $700, but could go to $1,000 if there is a good case for it.
Thanks in advance!
Matt
