Pump/Filter Upgrade Recommendations

[pmsmith2032]

I am looking for suggestions on upgrading our pool filter and/or pump if it makes sense. Here is our current setup:

• AGP - 27' Round - 54"
• Hayward Sand Filter - SW256TPAKS
• Hayward Power-Flo LX Pump - 1.0 HP Single Speed - 60 GPM

Pool and equipment is all 9 years old. Pump only runs filter and vacuum.

Thanks!

Would it make sense to go to a two speed pump? If so, approximately how much money would I save on electricity?
