Hello to all, awesome site with TONS of info.....my first post.
Just bought this pool on sale at Wal-Mart.....
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10730729
The pump is very small in size, it doesn't list a horsepower rating. It's just listed at 2000 gallon per hour, and 210 Watts and 2.2 Amps. It's small, but does put out a lot of water. I just bought the Sungrabber 4'x20' system, will this pump be adequate to pump through the panels?
The panels are going to sit on the far side of the pool (on the ground for now), the hoses will be 25' going and 25' coming back to the pool.....anybody know if the pump will handle it?
Also, do I absolutely need the hose going and coming from the panels to be 1 1/2", or can I adapt down to a 5/8 hose? I don't want to use the expensive 1 1/2" hose if they're carrying more water than the panels can handle anyway, the smaller hose would be much cheaper and easier if it will work just as well.......
Any and all help is appreciated!
