Is there any problem with running a pool pump 24/7?
When I had the pool installed they said run it 8am-8pm.
My problem is that I have a heater pump, which seems to do a lousy job of heating the pool as it is, but even more so when I don't have the pump running at night when the air temperature gets the coolest. (I do have a solar cover BTW).
SO I'd like to just keep the pump running constantly to keep the pool as warm as possible but I want to know if there is any issue in doing this. Does the pump need to 'rest' from time to time?
