  • Install a timer on your pool pump and run only as long as necessary each day to keep the water clean. In general, run it eight to 12 hours during the summer. During the winter, only six to eight hours are necessary.
  • If you are on SRP's optional Time-of-Use price plan, run your pump during off-peak hours.
  • Keep your pool chemicals properly balanced. Balanced chemicals are more important for clean water than operating the filter for longer periods of time.
  • Clean strainer baskets and filters regularly to help your pool pump run more efficiently.
