My timer for my pool has died. Would this product work for an outdoor, inground pool? The 220 is what I need...

This is the thing you could use.I don't know about amps tho.The ones I use carry thirty amps fine so....
918212
Yes, definitely. I have one in use at this time operating a four speed pool pump. I am very pleased with it's operation.
918213
yes-I manage my water heater for time of use and it works perfect.The only thing you might want to check if your amperage draw isreal high . I doubt your pump motor is over 5 HP so it would be it would be more than adequate.

Absoluely, this works great for in ground pools. I bought one for my 10,000 gal pool with a 1 hp pump running on 220. excellent product.

Yes, that's exactly what happened to mine too. I had a 120v one which I was pretty sure may not be able to handle the equipement I had - the filter, pump and heater. I dismantled my broken one and looked at the back and saw that it had a similar voltage rating to this one and so i bought this ... installed it myslef and worked fine for the last few months now!

Yes, put the 220 timer in place; as long as you are are wired for row 220amp.

I use 5 of them outside(Under cover) to start 5hp pool pumps...Works perfect. Electrician suggegested not combined the internals into a consolidated box to make repair by others down the line easier.

I just checked and see that this timer is rated for up to 8.3 amps and since a 250 watt bulb at 120 volts equates to about 2 amps, this should work well for you. Its a rugged unit which I have been using outdoors in the dusk to dawn mode with my outdoor low voltage lighting and it works very well. Obviously this unit is photoelectric and turns on automatically when its dark out so you'll have to position it properly on or near your doghouse so that the photoelectric cell can measue the outdoor light.

I use mine for a 24 ft round above ground pool. 14000 gallons. I think it would do just as good on a 33 ft round pool. 20 something gallons. If you are considering using this on an inground pool, I would definately consult a pool specialist. If your inground pool was just a plain Jane type of pool , sure this would be fine, but on todays inticate below ground pipeing, itvmight nto be able to hqndle it or you would have to improvise on pipeing connections. Talk to your local pool outlet stores and ask them also.

If your water heater plugs into an outlet, a regular timer will work fine. Most water heaters, however, are 220 volt lines on a dedicated circuit, thus you need something more like the WH21. Here's a good reference for you:http://michaelbluejay.com/electricity/waterheatertimer.html

The pump your looking to replace is a 1 speed pump for a spa, this is two speed pump for a pool, your existing pump is probably hard wired and this pump is for an 120v electrical outlet.Hope this helps

First of all I had 3 of them. The first one worked for about 3mo. They gave me another 2 which never worked right out of the box. When called the last time I got ignored. But in answerer to your question yes it would work if the product worked. I have a 12k above ground pool and when the first one was working it did the job but was at its limit. I would not recommend this product to my worst enemy. I saw one on TV from a major filter company that was inline like this one, I would try it before wasting money on this thing.

Maybe, maybe not. Double check to see if your current timer is 120 volts, some are higher voltage then this might not work. If it is 120 then this will probably work, but I am not an expert by any stretch.

I suppose that's a good question and not one I thought to ask....my pool rover has a switch that allows for the shape/size of the pool (my pool is 18x36 oval), and that's it..... no forward/reverse timer......all I can say is on my above ground pool it absolutely does the job and runs for at least 2:30......you may want to check out the other models and see what's best for you...........

Just use an adapter, 110 to 220. The timer may be set up for 60 cycle and may be off. I imagine that most timers these days are digital. It should work.

No, I wouldn't use this outdoors. I would buy a grounded timer specifically rated for outdoor use.

it should work? what are you using it for? outside timer or mechanical timer?

I think its wired for 120. But I have to tell you don't buy this item unless you put it on a timer to only run about 2 hours per day. if you don't and just let it run like my last one did it will burn out in a few months. like mine did. cheep turned out to be expensive. Now I have to buy another "real" replacement from a pool/spa store.

Gary, I bought this pump last spring and am very pleased with it's performance. I'm running four zones, each having 1/2 dozen sprinkler heads and this pump is more than adequate. I believe most 220v motors can be wired for 110v also. It has been awhile since I have converted one and suggest you Google for instructions. It is 18 degrees and dark outside, otherwise I'd measure my inlet/outlet pipe ODs. I believe they are 2 1/4", same as the pump I replaced. You can always use an adapter, if your manifold is different. Gene, Michigan.

Yes it will. That is what the two timers are for: one to operate your main pool pump and the other for your booster pump to operate your pool sweep. They can be set independently.There are also punch-outs to install two on-off switches (e.g., a master power switch for the entire unit, or individual switched to each timer) on the inside and an outside punch out to install an electrical outlet. Those are optional. I would recommend getting an electrician to install it. George Stanley

I used it in my 10 ft deep end in ground pool. I attach an extension cord to the cord on the product. It worked like a charm I just took it out of the now drained pool (had it on the cover submerged in water and leaves) because it's now winter in NE Ohio! I totally recommend this pump for pool use, works great and great price!

I use my pump for filtering pond water. It is very effective on a 1000 gal pond. I believe it would behave equally well. It pumps 1500 gal per hour. If your numbers are correct than it would cycle your pool water once every hour. You will be running it more than you wish though. Purchase a 2nd filter for quick change. Wash the old one off.
