In general, we recommend that you filter for
• 12 hours per day in summer, and
• 6-8 hours per day in winter
Adjust your summer filtering hours to suit your pool size…
In winter, you can reduce the filtering hours by half.

Example:
Ave pool size = 50,000L, 0,75kW pump and 3 bag filter.
Filtering hours in summer = 8 hours, in winter = 4 hours
Tip:
How to find out what pump size you have?
- Just take a look on the actual pump you have.
- It will indicate the kW of the actual pump.
- Then based on the volume of water your pool holds, use the table above to find out the correct amount of hours you should filter for per day.
