what is the recommend gph onthe 1/10hp pump wise

There is a good table of this data via this link to The Marine Depot website. Note that the distance between the pump and the chiller will diminish the flow so you need to keep this in mind when selecting the right pump. http://www.marinedepot.com/Aqua_Euro_USA_Max_Chill_Aquarium_Chiller_1_4_HP_Less_with_a_Built_In_Controller-Aqua_Euro_USA-ED1151-FICHINQCBC-vi.html

The 4400 GPH pump is 1/2 HP. It will handle 10 ft lift just fine (3200 GPH output @ 10 ft lift, according to the specs). I have it lifting 12-14' in my basement.

You will be ok with the FNSP48 but with the FNSP60, I would recommend a 1.5 or 2hp pump.

I've read that you need an pump of at least 1hp or 1-1/2hp. My mine is a 1hp and it's working.

We are using it the pump as a pressure pump. I'm not sure of the GPM but it is a very powerful pump. It's the best deal on the market. Buy the pump you won't be disappointed. We are pumping the water over 100' to the church and have really good pressure without any lags in water.

1.5 HP is the rating of the horsepower of your pump, not the electrical ratings i.e. 120/220 volts and 15/20 amps. This is rated for 15A. however the full ratings for this, state 1HP http://www.intermatic.com/en/Products/Pool_and_Spa/Specialty_Controls/Portable_Outdoor_Timers/P1100_Series/P1131.aspx which im guessing is refering to the pump it will be connected to. It doesnt make sense to rate electrical equipment like this with HP.

No check is necessary. You should expect to see around 20 gpm. See the curve in red.http://www.tsurumipump.com/prods/submersible-pumps/single-phase-pumps/hs-series.aspx

It would depend on what your pump output is. If your pump is at least rated at a 750 gph then you should only need the 750/850. I have a 166 gallon tank with a 1800gph pump with 4 jet outlets, plus a 1400 hydor koralia and it rocks my tank. If you want major turbulence then get the higher rated one. Remember the more motion the more that will go into your overflow and depending on pump and filter system, it may not be able to keep up with the additional water being forced into the overflow from the turbulence, resulting in over flowing your sump/filter system.

Most well pumps are 240 volt. You stated "deep water" which would indicated a need for a higher hp pump. Usually any pump over 1/3hp will be a 240v pump. These generators are 120v only!

It will work but I usually associate 1HP with the 100 sq/ft filter. It sounds like you may have more pump than you need for 10,000 gallons.

Hard to say. I have a 1200 gph pump and it really flows and gurgles. Just ensure the pump discharge size matches the filter outlet. You can always install in outlet to bleed off excess pressure

I wish I could answer your question, but I am using my unit on a 1 3/4 hp pump for a 10,000 gallon in ground pool. The only issue I have is that the hose gets heavy wit the water and the cleaner does not make it all the way around my pool.

Yes, a 1hp pump will work, but so would a 1/2 hp. The location of the pump/filter above the pool water level will effect the performance of the pump filter. Check the pricing of different hp pumps, buy the most cost effective.

Tim, I could not find that info anywhere on my pump, but I will say that I used it in my basement to pump out flood water.basement floor was 10 feet below ground and it delivered about 1400 gph at that height pumping up out of my basement

There are a number of variables to take into consideration when selecting a pump: Size of your pipes, length of the run, filter pressure, back pressure, etc. but on every single water pump, flow rate and pump head are the two most important specifications. Flow rate is how much water can be moved in time period without any restriction. This value is usually given in gallons per hour (GPH). Head is how high water can be pushed by the pump at full load. This value is usually given in feet or meters. As the height you're pumping the water goes up, the flow rate (GPH) goes down. So, you want to get a pump that can get the water to six feet high and still maintain you ideal flow rate to heat the water. What I discovered is that if I push the water too fast through the system, the water does not stay in the collector long enough to heat it up enough (the water cools the collectors too fast). If you pump it too slowly, then it can't keep up with the natural cooling of the water in the pool. I'm currently using an old Intex 635T pump/filter combo that I had from an old pool. The head height for me is only 4', but that pump has no issues circulating the water. In fact, I've installed a valve to slow the water down a bit so it has time to heat up while it's in the system. The key is finding the most efficient pump for the job - don't buy a giant 2 hp that you have to regulate (and doubles your electric bill), when you can get by with, say a 1/2 HP motor that does the job just as well and cheaper. I've discovered that my old Intex pump/filter combo works pretty well and is running at about 10-15 gallons per minute and the water temperature (at the return) is warmer to the touch. You might be able to run it faster, since you have 3 panels (I have only 2). I also recommend that you put a filter between the pump and the solar panels if you use another brand of pump with no filter - any kind of debris in the water could get trapped in the solar panels and reduce your efficiency and heat. I hope this helps.

depends on the lift (how high you are pumping) I am getting about 2500 GPH , but it has a lot more suction for the pool vacum than the little Intex pump and filter I was using. Now have a sand filter and it has plenty of pressure to get the water thru it and room to pump up to the solar on the roof.

It's 1/2 HP. Yes confusing by what some sellers publish because they are "boiler plating" their product information. So don't go by pictures either. When in doubt go directly to manufacturer website and get model information.This is a fantastic pump. Quiet but moreso...efficient.
