Hi everyone, I am new to this site and a new pool owner. My wife and I just bought our first house and we have a 10,000 ingound pool. I have been doing the BBB method the whole time and love it. I am just wondering how long I should run my pool pump for? I want to run it at the minimum to keep the pool looking good and to save money on my power bill. I live in southern utah and the temp is in the 100's during the summer. I currently run it 10 hours. 11am - 9pm and keep my FC around 8 - 10.
I have been researching to try and find the perfect run time for my pool and on Pentair's website it says my pumps runs at 110 gpm. So according to my math for 1 turnover i should run my pump for just under 2 hours and that seems way to short. If I could get some help from you guys I would really appreciate it. Thanks
