Hi, Just replastered my 30K gal pool. Startup was done by a pro...now I am looking to begin on my own but I have a couple questions about some improvements I need to consider. Also, I am wondering which of these should be my priority?
1. Booster pump is leaking...will need to replace it soon...but water does not appear to be leaving the pool as water level has not gone down. Is this something that needs to be fixed now?
2. Pool is chlorine now....Considering switching to Saltwater. What are average costs for this to be installed? Any useful sites that compare costs? I am curious about the energy costs as I now have a 1 speed pump.
3. Currently have a weird 2 filter system that is an older style of filtering. These are not in a separate filter tank, they are at one end the pool inside the weirs under the baskets. Does anyone know what this system is called? Pool Pro says the system may work but in liklihood, it will not be sufficient and to wait until the summer is over to see if it will be enough filtration for 30K gallons.
4. Should I switch to a variable speed pump? I like the energy savings but do they have the ROI?
THANKS for any suggestions on which I should consider first AND possibly which I should consider doing together?
