The panel is only about 30 feet from the pump, so the voltage drop is probably less than 3%, but you're right the pump PF is probably a better than I estimated. But at the end of the day, I still have to pay for the power lost to resistance in the wires. So if it's 13 watts, that's .013 kwh/hr = .312 kwh/day = 114 kwh/year, about 22 dollars per year at my rates, half that since I close the pool for winter. 8/2 nm-b wire costs about 1.50 a foot, so 45 dollars, probbly wouldn't save enough to justify upgrading, but it might make sense to oversize the wires a bit when doing the wiring initially since the pump runs so much.
