Polaris 280 automatic cleaner

: Heads up if you ever see a polaris 280 with booster pump we are automatically changing them to the new polaris electric cleaner. They just plug into a wall outlet
Sheer Descents
Use chart below to determine how many HP is needed for the linear inches of sheer descents
Example: This is for a Sheer Decent. 1.25 gallons per minute per inch on a Sheer. So 96" of total sheer requires 120 gallons per minute. Ex. Beaufort Job is (4) 24" sheers = 96" total = 120 gpm) That means this will require a 3hp Feature Pump. Also, some good specs on Flow Performance at 50 feet of Head for the sizes of Pumps so we can start sizing properly
