Pump Runtime / Turnover Calculator

Estimate how long your pump needs to move a chosen multiple of your pool volume at a given flow rate.

Runtime: —

Formula

Runtime hours = pool gallons × desired turnovers ÷ flow rate (GPM) ÷ 60. This is a theoretical circulation calculation; plumbing resistance, filter condition and equipment requirements can change actual system flow.
