Hello,
Currently I'm running a 1hp Sta-rite Duraglass with 1.5 piping. 1 skimmer and 1 main drain both open 100%, and have 3 return lines that feed 6 returns. (first "T" feeds 1 line that feeds 2 deep end returns (most powerful), then the second leg of first "T" feeds to an another "T" that feeds 2 return eyes (bench seat)(2nd powerful) and then 2 return eyes by the steps.
With a clean filter my PSI starts about 3 PSI. I clean it around 10-13 PSI.
Would it be better if I provided VAC pressure at the pump and then PSI at the gauge?
Looking to conserve energy. Pump/Motor is currently working fine.
