im a pool noob! Ive had this AG pool for 2 going on the third season so far. and Im going on my 3rd pump as well. Currently have a 1.5 hp Hayward but this season it just started getting loud and its overkill plus pricey to run.
I have a 15x30 oval AG pool. I have a hayward canister filter attached.
What im looking for is ...
Efficiency
Quiet
Reliable
Best bang for the buck
I had been looking at Pentair 342001 as i heard its great but its expensive and my rip off state doesnt give any rebates for it either. I then read some complaints about it dieing after 4 months and it only comes with a 60 day warranty and customer service isnt great either. I cant say any of this is true but just what ive read. Im really confused as what to get as my local pool store tells me a 2 speed or variable speed pump does nothing for a AG pool as far as electricity savings.
I'm looking for some solid advice guys. Thanks!
oh and here is some questions someone else asked me if that helps in anyway, thanks again!
.....................................................................................................................
"What kind of pool do you have?
15x30 oval AG pool. moved in 2 years ago and not sure of brand but it looks to be in decent shape
How old is the liner?
last owner claimed to have replaced it in 2013 but who knows. its defiantely not the new darker blue pool liners ive seen recently.
What type and size piping (OD) do you have?
looks to be 2" flex pipe (OD)
What kind of filter do you have? (exact model)
looks just like Hayward CC15093S XStream Full-Flo Element Filter System
Do you want to HEAT your pool, or just WARM it?
In which months?
(Actually HEATING a pool in Connecticut is EXPENSIVE!)
I would love to heat but since i dont know all the numbers behind that and if its worth just heating for certain periods or just weekends.... i really dont know the cost differnces and what can and cannot be done as far as making financial sense."
Ok thanks guys!
