- Run your pool pump for the correct number of hours per day- refer “Filtering Hours"
- Make use of the timer to control the hours that the pump is set to operate
- Set your pump to run at a time when other household electrical appliances are not in use
- Regularly clear pump & weir baskets and backwash / rinse your filter to gain maximum benefit from filtering hours
- Follow a regular pool maintenance routine, to prevent the need for corrective pool treatments
- Turn off the pool light
- Turn off electric pool heaters
- Solar heating requires a stronger pool pump to circulate the water, which uses more electricity.
- In addition, warmer pool water requires additional chemicals and increased frequency of backwashing/rinsing of the filter
