[quote=AN]Great decision OCR. I’ve got mine switched out 4+ years ago and it saved me a lot of money. I got the same pump as you. I have mine on 2nd speed and have it run for 8-10 hours. I recently just put it down to 1st speed but have it run for 12 hours instead. I’ll see if that save me $ or not and whether it’s sufficient to keep the pool clean.[/quote]
I ran a few scenarios on the pentair online calculator to get to my current settings.
the pump makes a lot of sense given the cost of electricity goes up exponentially with the rpm. once you get control over the rpm, it almost becomes a hypermiling thing with hybrid drivers.
