I Ordered a Matrix 24' yesterday! Happy days! Now I need help.
There are so many different pumps available. What should I buy. I already have a Pentair Sand Dollar SD-80 filter, bought a year ago. It holds 350lbs of sand. Also the pool is coming with a 20' solar water heater. The pool should hold 15,000 gallons. So that means I need a flow rate of 31.25gpm to make the pool turn over once during the hottest part of the day in 8 hours. I was looking at Pentair Whisperflo 1/2hp but they all seem to be for in ground pools. Any advice on a pump for an above ground pool?
