Pool pump operation question...

How many hours a day should you run the circulating pump?


Thanks for your question Dave

During the Summer months you'll want to run you swimming pool pump filter for a minimum of 12 hours per day.

This is to ensure you have enough filtration and circulation throughout the day.

When the weather starts to heat up your pool chlorine level will need to be tested at least once per week. Keeping your filtration up and running is an important part of your swimming pool chemistry.

In the Winter, if you don't winterize your pool, you should filter about 4 - 6 hours per day.

Hope this helps
