I think there's a small problem with running pool pumps at night - the noise factor. Most pool pumps are situated close to the pool. An open water area acts like an acoustic amplifier - and this is worse at night when things are quiet.<BR/><BR/>My dad did this and received multiple complaints from the neighbours.<BR/><BR/>I can suggest people shift from chlorine based pools to salt-based pools. It requires far less maintenance and the motor only has to run about 2 hours a day.Tonywww.freetips.co.zanoreply@blogger.com
