I've posted some pictures on another post of my piping setup.
Trying to figure out Head Pressure.
With a new filter my system is showing a 2.5 PSI.
I'm getting what I consider good flow.
All piping in 1.5 inches.
Main drain and Skimmer feed input to pump.
return line has 2 tees. first Tee feeds 1.5 inch line that feeds 2- deep end returns the other side of the 2 feeds 2 gate valves that feed 1.5 in line that feeds 2 returns each. They have lower flow the further they are from the pump. (Makes sense, longer runs= greater resistance.)
Can I swap out the motor and put in a 115V two speed pump. My system is set up for 115V. What motor would you go with? Or should I replace the whole pump?
This is the motor that is currently installed:
Would it be worth changing out to a 2 speed motor? I don't have water features and I manually vac the pool.
