Pump Operation Hours - Oval Ring Pools
Pump Operation Hours
Operation times are based on pool type and size in relation to the gallons per hour of the pump provided. The chart below serves as a benchmark only. Temperature, humidity, water conditions, etc., play a part in determining the length of time that your pump needs to run. Please note that maintenance and proper use of chemicals are essential to keeping your pool crystal clear. Numbers highlighted in yellow are the number of hours each pump needs to run daily.
To determine the correct operational hours, see the example below:
20'x12'x42” = 3800 Gallons F1000c Pump = 1000 Gallons per hour
Gallons of Water in the pool divided by the Pump GPH 3800 / 1000 = 3.8 hours.

Pump Operation Hours - Rectangular Frame Pools
Pump Operation Hours
Operational lengths are based on pool type and size in relation to the gallons per hour of the pump provided. The chart below is only a benchmark. Temperature, humidity, water conditions, etc., play a part in determining the length of time that your pump needs to run. Please note that maintenance and proper use of chemicals are essential to keeping your pool crystal clear. Numbers highlighted in yellow are the number of hours each pump needs to run daily.
To determine the correct operational hours, see the example below:
10' x 18” x 45” = 4000 Gallons F1000c Pump = 1000 Gallons per hour
Gallons of Water in the pool divided by the Pump GPH 4000 / 1000 = 4 hours.

Pump Operation Hours - Round Frame Pools
Pump Operation Hours
Operation times are based on pool type and size in relation to the gallons per hour of the pump provided. The chart below only serves as a benchmark. Temperature, humidity, water conditions, etc., play a part in determining the length of time that your pump needs to run. Maintenance and proper use of chemicals are essential to keeping your pool crystal clear. It is ideal to run your pump during cooler parts of the day. Numbers highlighted in yellow are the numbers of hours each pump needs to run daily.
To determine the correct operational hours, see the below example:
15'x42" = 4000 Gallons F1000c Pump = 1000 Gallons per hour
Gallons of Water in pool divided by Pump GPH 4000 / 1000 = 4 hours.
