Am I missing the link in pool school or somewhere? I can't find what good PSI would be for the pool pump. I have a 2hp, 2speed Hayward pump. 24ft AGP. (Yes, I already know, it is oversized.) Filter is cartridge, size 150. (I will make my sig soon, sorry)
When running on low, it is 4psi. When I add the solar bear panel, which is only 6ft away, on ground lvl, it goes to 5-6 psi. When I turn it to high speed, and solar off ofcourse, it is at 18psi. (I was told to only do the hi speed mostly for vacuuming. Do these numbers sound about right? There is a huge jump in psi on hi speed, but it is moving ALOT more water. A friend told me the 18psi is way too hi, so I thought I would ask here. thx.
