Minimum filter PSI?

[jerryp520]

When I run my variable speed pump at a low rpm(sub 800) my filter psi is hovering around 3. My water is crystal clear and squeaky clean. Sound like anything to be concerned about? Thanks.

Only issue would be whether it skimmed good enough at that speed. If you have a SWCG, there will be a minimum to keep the flow switch open.

Jerry,

I personally do not recommend running less than 1000 RPM, but it is your pool and you should do what you want...

My filter pressure at 1200 RPM is about 1 lb. As long as you have adequate flow back to your pool, the amount of pressure is just not an issue.

Thanks,

Jim R.
