After 14 years it's time to replace my 3/4hp American Products pump. The old pump had a 1.25 sf drew 10.8 amps @110 volts. I have a single 1.5" pve line in to the pump and a single 1.5" pvc line out to pool which feeds 2 returns. Using the info on the "losing your head" post I have about 50' of head.
I am looking at the Pentair Whisperflo WFE-2 1/2 hp pump as a replacement. Is this going to be too much pump for me? Would the Superflo 3/4hp high efficieny pump be a better fit? I see they both draw the same 8.8 amps @ 110 volts. What are the differences between the 2 pumps?
Thanks everyone for all your help
