pump size

[speed]

hi
this is my pump

my filter has 150 liter of sand

pool have +-35.000 liter of water

i have pump running 1 hour and in summer 1.5-2 hours
i know this is too little
but howmuch should it be normally?

Unless you are pumping some serous head you would be better of financially with a pump half or less that size. my pool is larger than yours and I am running a much smaller pump so I get better filtration, longer pump run time and a lot less electricity.

so howmuch liter this one pumps in 1 hour?

and what size best to get?

My pump is 3/4hp with low head loss and pumps roughly 10,000 litres/hour which would be fine for your setup too, you could even go smaller 1/2hp and 8,000 litres/hour unless you have extras like fountains, solar etc. How many skimmers/returns and main drains?
