30,000 gallons ÷ 24 hours = 1250 gallons/hour.
Likewise, people ask, is 1 HP pool pump enough?
Pool owners often mistakenly believe if they choose a 2 HP pump over a 1 HP pump, they are getting double the performance. This is simply not true. In this scenario, you will get only about 15% more flow from the 2 HP model. But the amp draw of the larger pump will be significantly higher, raising your electric bill.
For pools up to 24 Ft Round, use a 1 HP pool pump. For pools over 24 Ft Round, we recommend using a 1.5 HP pool pump.
Similarly one may ask, can I replace my 1hp pool pump with a 1.5 HP?
So to answer the question, yes, you can replace your 1hp pool pump with a 1.5hp pool pump, but only if your situation calls for it. If you’ve determined that your current pump is too small for your pool, then we’ll suggest replacing it with a larger ECO pump like the Water TechniX Pump Alpha ECO.
How many gallons per minute does a 1 hp pump?
What size pump do I need for a 25000 gallon pool?
Calculate Flow Rate and Turnover
Flow rate is the number of gallons the pump moves per minute, and turnover is the minimum about of time to circulate all water through the filter. Your 25,000-gallon pool needs an output of 52 gallons per minute to circulate the water once every eight hours.
What size pump do I need for a 35000 gallon pool?
If you have a 35,000 gallon pool and want a turnover rate of 10 hours, you will need a pump with a flow rate of 56 gallons per minute.
How many gallons per minute does a 3/4 HP pump?
Shallow Well Jet Pump System, 3/4 hp, 13/6.5 Amps, 9.6 gpm Flow Rate @ 10 Ft. Lift @ 40 PSI. Country of Origin USA.
How do I know what size pool pump I need?
Divide the pool volume by the number of hours that you would want the pump to be running, so that would be 65,947.5 divided by 6. This would give you 10,991 which means your pump should be able to turn around this much water in 6 hours.
How much HP pump do I need?
Example – Horsepower Required to Pump Water
| Power Required to Pump Water (hp) | ||
|---|---|---|
| Volume Flow (gpm) | Height (ft) | |
| 10 | 0.0126 | 0.0379 |
| 15 | 0.0189 | 0.0568 |
| 20 | 0.0253 | 0.0758 |
How many gallons per minute does a 2 HP pool pump?
Can a pool pump be too big?
Too large of a pump can cause poor filter performance and even damage it, if the filter is not also oversized accordingly. Another possible consequence is pump cavitation in which bubbles form in the water inside the pump and then burst with great force, resulting in damage to the impeller and other internal parts.
