How often do pool pumps need to be replaced?
The longevity of your pool pump will be dependent on what brand and type of pool pump you originally purchased. Some cheaper pool pumps may only last a few years, whereas higher quality options might only need full replacement after 15 years or more. When purchasing a new pool pump for installation, consider the length of warranty given with the pump as this may help to indicate the quality and reliability of the pump itself.
-
Should a pool pump be run around the clock?
For best effectiveness, you should try to run your pool pump as much as possible. If you do choose to run your pool pump during the day and overnight, this may cause the pump to wear quicker and need replacement sooner. With most pumps, it is recommended that you run them for at least 6-8 hours during months when the pool has frequent usage. To get a more accurate answer for your particular pool size and pool pump type, you should ask a pump specialist, after hours pumps services, or contact Enviro Pump for pump service near me.
