Install the right size pump during your pool installation

Reduce energy costs

Homeowners can save energy and still maintain a comfortable water temperature in their pool by using a higher efficiency, smaller pool pump.  The better the efficiency, the less a homeowner will need to operate the pump. 

Use the right size pool pump

The bigger the pool pump, the greater a homeowner’s maintenance and pumping costs.  This is why a homeowner should always try to use the smallest size pool pump possible during their pool installation.  The best pool company in Charlotte NC, Carolina Pool Plastering can provide a homeowner with all the information they will need to make a decision about their swimming pool pump. 

Working your pool pump less

Many times swimming pool pumps work longer than necessary.  They keep the swimming pool water circulated so the chemicals stay mixed and debris is removed.  Chemicals should be added while the poolwater is circulating so they remain mixed.  Water does not have to be recirculated every day, even if there is debris.  Most debris can be skimmed or vacuumed.  Longer circulation also does not keep algae from growing.  It is better to use pool water chemicals and to scrub the walls to remove algae.

Filtration times

Homeowners should reduce filtration time to six hours daily.  If this does not keep the pool water clean enough, they should increase the filtration time by half-hour increments until the pool water is completely clean.  Call Carolina Pool Plastering, one of the most professional pool companies in Charlotte NC for more ideas on increasing the efficiency of your swimming pool pump.
