I do not run my pump at night, so when it comes on in the morning, the water in the pipes is cold and the heat pump thinks there is demand, so it clicks on. About 60 seconds later, the water in the pipes is cleared and the pump clicks off, since the pool is already quite warm. Is this type of cycling bad for the unit? I'm not sure how to get around this, other than to run the pump at low speed all night.
My guess it would cost about $20/year to keep the pump running over night. That's negligible, but I don't know if I'm worrying about an issue that doesn't really exist.
