Como escolher a bomba de piscina do tamanho certo？

If you want to build a swimming pool for your house, there are many things you need to consider during and after construction. One of them is the choice of pool pumps because there are different operating systems and pump functions to choose from. To make your decision easier and help you choose the right pump, we’ve put together some pool pump guides that we hope will help you.

What Does a Bomba para piscina O que fazer?

A pool pump is a machine that is responsible for circulating the water in the pool. It is also the component that keeps the pool in good condition and suitable for swimming. A pump will draw water from the pool and send it to a filtration system, heater, and chlorinator for treatment. The pool pump then returns the treated water to the pool for your family to enjoy.

Components of a Swimming Pool Pump

Three main components make the bomba para piscina work: the motor, the impeller, and the housing.

• Motor: Starts the entire pumping process by rotating the impeller.
• Impeller: An upside-down blade that draws water from the pool and pushes it toward the filter.
• Housing: Made from high-quality, lightweight, rust-proof material resistant to heat and pressure. It holds the impeller and motor, as well as small parts of the pump such as the filter basket, diffuser, and cover.

The filter basket is another important part of the pump as it collects debris such as pebbles, leaves, and twigs before they reach the impeller and cause damage. Regular cleaning of the basket helps maintain its efficiency.

Types of Pool Pumps

When shopping for a pool pump, you’ll find four types to choose from. They are classified according to the speed they can generate.

• Single-Speed Pump: The most basic pump design with a single, fixed speed. It’s the most affordable option for pool owners.
• Two-Speed Pump: Offers both high and low speeds. High speed is similar to a single-speed pump and ideal for larger pools, while the low speed is more energy-efficient and suitable for smaller pools.
• Multi-Speed Pump: Comes with preset speed settings, allowing you to switch speeds depending on your pool’s requirements.
• Variable-Speed Pump: Equipped with a variable speed controller, this pump lets you set the speed to your liking. Some models even adjust speeds automatically. While it’s the most expensive type, it’s also the most efficient.

Functional Characteristics of Swimming Pool Pumps

In addition to the different types, it’s important to understand the various functions of swimming pool pumps:

• Horsepower: Determines the speed at which the pump circulates water. A higher horsepower pump completes the job faster, allowing you to operate it less often, which can save energy in the long run.
• In-Ground or Above-Ground: Pumps for in-ground pools are usually self-priming and designed to lift water vertically, while above-ground pool pumps do not require this feature.
• Electrical System: Pumps can run on either 110 or 220 volts. Some require hardwiring to your property’s electrical system, while others plug into an outlet. Ensure compatibility with your home’s electrical system.
• Turnover Rate: Measured in gallons per minute (GPM), this refers to the amount of water the pump can filter per minute. Choose a pump with a turnover rate that can clean your entire pool within 8 hours.
• Características da água: If you’d like additional features like fountains, waterfalls, or sprinklers, select a pump that supports these functionalities.
