I want to get a backup variable speed pump ready in storage when my main pump finally fails. I am comfortable with replumbing PVC. However, I don't know what Hayward single-speed pump model I have and I am confused by the HP. The main label says 2.0 HP but the side label says 2.4 HP. I have a 25,000 gallon in-ground, non-SWG pool/spa with a Hayward Swimclear Cartridge Filter C5025. The inflow PVC appears to be 2" and the outflow PVC also appears to be 2".
Any advice on which VSP model to get and how much HP is actually needed? If it helps, kinda tired of the high prices of Hayward/Pentair and am skeptical if they are worth the price compared to lower-priced manufacturers (eg, Black & Decker). Are Hayward/Pentair worth the premium price? Thanks.
