We are building a centralized filteration system to accomodate a 3000-4000 gallon system.

We currently have a 1/4 HP water pump, 3 amps, but it is not enough.

I found a used 1 HP pool pump, 8 amps, 115 volts, 40 gallons per minute or 2400 gallons per hour, for $89.95 ( a great value). Unable to regulate flow.

Does anyone think that this pump is too big? Any opinions?

Thank you,
