So my current pump (2HP single speed pentair, about 10 years old) developed a pinhole leak in the impeller housing, it now shoots pressurized water everywhere. Unrelated, I measured it using about 2,600 kWh (at the meter).
I called a pro who initially recommended a variable speed, but then noticed my sand filter is "high flow" - the label says 63 gpm minimum. So then he recommended ripping that out and installing a cartridge filter instead.
I think I would prefer to find a VS that can do 63 gpm at a low rpm -- saving money on electric would be very nice. Any recommendations?
Pool specs in sig.
