Being a 1hp pump, the current draw is 6.5 amps. Make sure wiring should handle it. I would advise using a GFI outlet on it for shock protection should the motor windings short out (very rarely happens). That's the Engineer in me worrying about things. Good luck!

I have used the HC8000 for a couple of years with a 1/2 HP pump and no issues.

It's a great pump. I have a 24 ft round pool and it really does the job. It has plenty of power (1 1/2 hp) check your fitting sizes,,,,,I'm sure it will work for you.

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.

Depends. Are you running it 115V or 230V. The pump is 1.5 hp. 1 hp = 745.7 watts. V x A = W or volts times amps = watts. 745.7 times 1.5 hp = 1118.5 1118.5w/230V = 4.86A 1118.5/115 = 9.73A Take your pick.

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.

Hello..Top GPM is approx. 82 GPM. At the moment, Poolandspa.com does not sell the 2 speed pump.

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

I had the HNE-L STA-RITE equivalent for about 10 years before it died.The SNE-L actually has a 1 hp motor where the HNE-L is actually a 1 1/2 hp motor but advertised as 1hp.I have installed the HNE-L in my sprinkler system and can't tell the difference.It seems to have plenty of output and quieter than the other.Very happy with the pump and the fast delivery from the vendor.

It is a 2 speed pump. I'm guessing the top speed is (which is high) would be 2 hp and the low speed would be 1hp or less.

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

I wish is was a 1 HP pump but I am pretty sure the one I received has a 1/2 HP pump in it, at least the literature that came with it says it's a 1/2 HP. I have not acturally looked inside at the spec label on the pump but I have looked at the pump from outside and it looks like the size of a 1/2 HP pump. It's too small for a 1 HP pump. Plus a 1 HP grinder pump purchased just by its self would cost you at least $600 or $700.

My 8cfm pump says "1 HP" on the side. I assume its different for each CFM though.In HG and due to my elevation I'm only suppose to pull a vac of "28.4HG" and I did with my old pump. But with this new Pump, I can pull "29.3 HG" (I didn't even think It'd pull anything past 28.4hg tbh)So I can assure you this pump has more vacuum power compared to others.But I can't confirm its "11lbs" of pressure.

For that size pool if you get the 1 1/2 HP you should be fine that's the HP on mine

The one I put in was rated for 240vac at up to 10amps, normal running I am only drawing about 1.5amps and running at 1700rpmThis is a very quiet running pump, you have to be standing right next to it to hear it run, very happy with it. It was very easy to install if you know electricity at all, I have the veriable speed, which you can program easily to set minimum and maximum speeds, good instruction manual with it, draws way less electricity than old one.

I have the Hayward Super Pump. Not sure of the HP it was dark when I got home tonight. I'll check it and let your know.
