How many hours per day should I run my pump?
Reply
There are many factors to consider; bather load, gallons of water, pump horsepower, type and size of filter just to name a few. A good guideline is 8-10 hours a day. On the cooler days and early and late season, you can cut the run time down to 4-6 hours because there is usually less swimmers and cooler water requires less chemicals. In peak season, when it is the hottest, raising the run time to 10-12 hours per day will help to keep the pool clean and circulating during it’s time of heaviest use.

My old hayward motor died, it was a 1.5 hp a.o. smith. Would like to replace entire pump with a Hayward SP3200VSP Tristar Variable Speed. Will this work?

Hi Bill - Yes you could replace your 1.5 HP Hayward pump with the Tristar variable speed pump. For this pump we would suggest that you have a minimum of 2" plumbing. You will see a considerable savings on your electrical bill by upgrading to a variable speed pump, up to 90% energy savings!

In most single-speed or dual-speed pump electrical wiring configurations, timers are used to provide power to the pump; one timer on a single speed; two timers on a dual speed (one a hi/low). Looking at the Tristar VS Variable Speed Pump wiring schematic, it seems that no timers are required whatsoever, and that the onboard pump control circuitry is used to turn the pump on and off, etc., without having to use any timers whatsoever. Is my understanding correct?

That is correct. The Tristar SP3200VSP model has a 24-hour clock built into it. The Hayward Tristar VS Pump Owners Manual has details on configuring the timer.

Hi. Looking to replace a 1.5 HP Hayward single speed pump. Will this pump work (and will it work efficiently) on a pool with 2" suction plumbing and 1.5" return plumbing?

Hello Dave - The SP3200VSP pump will be more energy efficient and it will work for your application.

After removing the old pump, the wiring was installed into new water tight seal-tite. New terminals were crimped and installed on the end going into the pump. Once connected, it was bolted in place and new PVC was cut to attach the pump to the existing plumbing.
Read the instructions, take your time, and assess the situation. Pump replacement is a straightforward install. Prep the job and get the tools BEFORE you start! It will save you time and frustration in the long run!

(5 out of 5 stars) High tech upgrade!
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
Upgraded from an older RS1500 pump that the motor began to fail. The variable speed gives you much more control and provides energy savings over a traditional style pump. After a bit of calculation and discussion, determining the right pump was simple. Installation was straightforward, and the variable speed function did not add any additional work compared to a traditional pump. Once you set up your speeds and timers, you can sit back and enjoy your pool. In the future, I hope to add the OmniHub to the pump and pool to make it fully automated, taking it to the next level.

(5 out of 5 stars) I had this up and running in about an hour
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
I had this up and running in about an hour, but did have to get fitting for the pump electrical cord since I needed a 90 degree angle to fit in the area I have, but I have seen a HUGE decrease in my electric bill since installing this pump. I have fine-tuned the lowest speed I can use and still have sufficient pressure for the heater. InyoPools Q&A was directly responsible for my purchasing this pump with 100% confidence. They also have some of the best prices out their and the DIY videos are helpful for getting right the first time. Quick shipping and well packaged.
