Hi Guys,
Brand new to forum, hope all is well with everyone... I have a 18x36 Lazy L (28000 gal) I just recently cut out all the equipment. Had a 16yo 1 1/2hp challenger pump with FNS 48 Filter and CL200 Chlorinator that owed me nothing. Pool has 1 1/2" plumbing and filter is 15' from pool on deep end side. I have two Skimmers deep end and 3 returns and a Cleaner Port piped 1 1/2" also in middle of long side. I have a newer Polaris 360 (no booster pump required) . I don't like the use of restrictors in the returns to run the 360 and my thought is that I would like to set the 360 up with its own pump since it does have its own line and use Hayward 6060 Booster pump since it can accommodate 1 1/2" plumbing to run it. I would then use Pentair Super Flo VS 11/2 hp pump for system with Quad 60 DE FIlter. I could crank down rpm on VS when cleaner is not running and bring it back up to high (lowest rpm all out system can run on) when cleaner is running or would I have to? .My original thought was to use an intelliflo/pro to run both but, it would need to run at higher speeds which I'm sure would be more costly then using the two pumps. Hope I explained it correctly and look forward to advice and input.
