would a 1 hp pump be satifactory for the AC50?

Yes, I have an OLD 1 HP pump and the filter still works 100 times better than my old sand filter.

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.

Yes a 1 hp pump is fine. The filter comes with a flow restrictor disc so if your pump exceeds the recommended gpm the disc compensates for that. It's explained in the owners manual.

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

I think there is a horsepower requirement. Look at your pump and compare this to the spec for the heater.

1/200 HP, 1.1 Amps. While this may differ from the other answers you were given, my answer is from Little Giant, the manufacturer of the pump. BTW, it's a great pump!

Pretty small for that. You would need a 3/4 HP pump with at least a 75 sq ft filter to be happy.

These units are made for computers. There are devices (e.g., Laser Printers) that you shouldn't hook up to this. I don't know whether a pump as a load would be appropriate. Even if it would be OK, there are other similarly-rated units that are cheaper because they don't have the features of this unit, and for a sump pump you wouldn't care about these features. APC's number is 800-800-4272, ask for tech support for more information before buying this unit.

I am not sure,I did buy it to use with my 1/2 HP,but I checked the amps on my pump first. I havent tried it yet

1/2 hp pump motor works fine. It may work fine with an even smaller pump. Great combination of toos for the price. Well made. Great value.

The pump has a continuous rating of 1/2 HP = 373 watts. The current is labeled on the pump as 8.5 amps, presumably at its continuous load rating. At startup you will get a momentary surge greater than the continuous rating, which occurs so instantaneously as to be of no concern. And don't worry about surge current from an imagined "overload" either, as it is impossible to stall it, because its inlet prevents large debris from getting inside and jamming the rotor. Note that on the Amazon page under Technical Details this pump is ERRONEOUSLY specified to be 1 HP @ 100.00 volts. Ignore that misinformation.

I've only used this pump once so far, but the reviews say not quite 30". Maybe consider the 15500.

It should be no problem. However I recommend you reduce your outlet line one siz smaller to make it easier on the pump.

Yes. As the connections are standard 110 AC, you can connect any brand (non variable) pumps.

I have easily pumped dirty SAE 30 engine oil with this pump.. So it should have no trouble with ATF

Dont remember but I replaced a 1hp pump and this pump was a huge improvement

No, this is not that type of pump. You will need a transfer pump with more hp than this one.

It is not a pump, it is an AC converter. If you have a 110 volt AC pump that is less than 150 watts, it should work.

William,A 1/2 hp submersible pump should handle 60 psi with no trouble. I have an above ground pump with a deep well (bottom of well) jet that pumps 70 psi. I believe your submersible should do even better. Dan
