Hey TFP friends! I have missed you guys! The water is under control so haven't been as "needy"! I have a new question for you. Again, trying to save money, I want to cut back on the runtime of the pumps. It has been running 24/7. I know, that is crazy, but the timer broke and was never repaired. My pool gets full sun all day, no shade till evening. The temperature here in south arkansas has been HOT!! Mid to high 90's. I was thinking of letting the pumps run 10 hours a day (maybe 12) but wasn't sure if they should run during the day or at night. I looked at the website for Entergy, and I don't think we have different rates for electricity usage depending on time of day. So the time of day won't affect my bill, but the hours a day will. I have searched the boards and see different opinions of how long and when to run. Also, is it more wear and tear on the pumps to run continuously or be turned on and off a couple of times a day? Thanks for your help! Can't wait to hear from you! :-D
