Hi friends, I have a 3 hp VSP and a 320 filter (Pentair for both). I currently run my pump at 2400 for four hours each day. I’d like to learn if I can run it slower. I do have a heater, but use it sparingly. Does the filter require a certain Rpm from the pump to be effective? I was considering lowering it to 1700-1800. The PSI of my filter is 10 when I am running my pump at 2400 and it is almost 0-2 when I’m at 1700. Thanks for the guidance.
Edit: also, does running the pump slower increase it’s lifespan? This equipment is from 2016.
