• How does a pool pump work?

  Our Mighty Mammoth pool pump creates a constant flow of water that allows the filtration system to remove impurities from the pool, ensuring that the water remains clean and safe for swimming. 

  The pump motor is the power source that drives the pump. It typically runs on electricity and is connected to the pool's electrical system. 

  The impeller is a rotating component inside the pump that creates the flow of water. When the pump is turned on, the impeller spins, which draws water into the pump and pushes it out through the discharge port.

 

• What size swimming pool pump do I need? 

  We offer pumps in 1HP, 1.5HP, and 2HP. Choosing the right size pump for your above ground pool will help make sure your pool is clean and that the pump doesn’t waste energy or burn out too quickly. 

  A pool pump with a horsepower of 1-1.5 is a good fit for most of our residential swimming pool customers. However, here are some considerations when considering the appropriate pump size and horsepower for your pool:

  -Pool volume: Measure the length, width, and depth of your pool and multiply them to determine the pool's volume in gallons. Use an online calculator if needed. 

  -Turnover rate: The turnover rate is the time it takes the water to circulate through the filter once. A turnover rate of 8-12 hours is recommended. To determine the required flow rate, divide your pool's volume by the turnover rate in minutes. (For example, if your pool is 20,000 gallons and you want a 10-hour turnover rate, you will need to move 2,000 gallons per hour or 33.3 gallons per minute.)

  -Resistance: The resistance in your plumbing system can reduce the water flow rate, which means you may need a higher horsepower pump to maintain a proper flow rate. A pool professional can assist you in determining the resistance in your plumbing system.

  -Pool features: Spas, waterfalls, slides, and other pool accessories and features can impact flow rates, which may require a higher horsepower pump.

  Contact us if you have any questions or need assistance. 

 

• How long will a pool pump last?

  On average, a high-quality pool pump can last anywhere from 8-10 years. Some can last even longer if they are well-maintained.

 

• Are pool pumps easy to maintain?

  Pool pumps are just one part of your pool filter system, but they’re relatively easy to maintain. Regular maintenance includes cleaning the pump and filter, checking for leaks, and ensuring that the motor is adequately lubricated. 

  Ongoing maintenance can help to prolong the life of the pump and your entire filtration system.
