I currenlty have an Intex Pool Pump with .75 HP that circulates 3,000 GPH connected to a 16" Intex Sand Filter and Intex SWG which is connected to 2" PVC plumbing that connects to two (2) Gyro Solar Panel water heaters which altogether totals approxiamtely 30-32' in length of plumbing from Skimmer to Inlet.
This is my current set up providing filteration and cholorination to my 15' x 30' x 54" oval above ground pool.
Although the pump is operating at full power, I don't think it is circulating the water fast enough.
Can I upgarde to a 1.5 HP pool pump with my current setup to produce a better circulation rate? Do I need a larger Sand Filter or is 16" still sufficient? Or is an upgrade to a 1HP sufficient?
Thank you for any advice!
