What Are My Power
Usage Going To Be? The Short Answer is a 1hp pump is going to cost you 37.5 cents an hour to run. Here's the math: Amps x Volts = Watts 1 HP Pump at 110v uses 14 amps at 220v 7 Amps 1540 Watts or 1.5 Kilowatt Hours Each Kilowatt will cost 25 cents. We recommend running your filter about 4 hour a day total daily cost to run your filter $1.50 or $45.00 per month note: these figures were related to us by an electrical worker at Edison (a So CAL utility company) and are based on ABOVE baseline kilowatt costs. |
