Can someone direct me to where to learn more about what I need to do to see if I want to do this? Our motor has stopped, I might be able to do bearings but it's at least 7 yrs old. I've seen posts that talk about running the variable speed motors from 12-24 hours a day and I have a hard time seeing that this would be more energy-efficient than running a single speed for 6-8 hours per day. It also sounds like I would have to change my pump impeller (or maybe whole pump assembly) to work properly with a variable speed motor. I also have a "the pool cleaner", and a circupool edge 40 saltwater chlorine generator (both recent upgrades).
I hate to miss an opportunity to upgrade to something more efficient but I also want to know the cost-benefit before jumping into the work.
Your comments/help are appreciated.
