Intex Pump Cooling

[GraceByDesign]

I've had experience with smaller intex pumps (A filter) and we ran them 24/7 with no negative effects.

I must add that we never had an intex POOL last more than a year ($&* cats, weed eaters, etc.) and to replace the pool cost practically as much as buying a whole new setup. So had a new pump each time.

HTH!

I have the same pump and run it 24/7 with no problem here in central TX. I've had mine for 3 years now. The past 2 years I ran it 24/7 about 1/2 the summer and 8 hrs/day the rest of the summer and into the fall. About 8 hours a day during the coldest days of winter to keep the pool from freezing over.
