From https://www.swimmingpoolsteve.com/pages/new-pool-owners.html - The first and most obvious reason that more people do not own swimming pools is simply because they are so expensive. Owning or installing a swimming pool is a massive luxury that most people simply cannot afford to have. It is also worth noting that you would have to have not just your own home but also a property with that home that is large enough to have a swimming pool. Again this is just not something that everyone can afford. In addition to the obvious cost concerns there is also the question of safety. There are a lot of people, especially people with small children in the home, who would simply just not consider to own a swimming pool for safety reasons. Even though there are safety mechanisms in place such as self closing gates, door and window alarms, and even automatic swimming pool covers this is still not enough to satisfy the safety requirement for some people. Another common reason why people do not get swimming pools is simply because there is so much commitment involved. When you own or install a swimming pool that means you are married to it. Year after year you will need to maintain it whether you are using it or not. This represents both a time and a money commitment. In total owning a swimming pool can be fantastic but realistically it is just not something that everyone can afford or wants to have. #SwimmingPoolSteve #poolquestions #swimmingpools ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiJsUpN8_r0

From https://www.swimmingpoolsteve.com/pages/bd-review.html - This is a test of a Black + Decker Variable Speed pool pump. The pump is paired with a 150sqf cartridge filter running on a 2" PVC plumbing system with a total dynamic head of approximately 30 feet. Every swimming pool system is different and this is just an example of a starting point for comparison. This is the 1.5 horsepower version of the Black + Decker variable speed pool pump on the following 24 hour schedule: 1200rpm - 5AM-1PM 2500rpm - 1PM-6PM 1200rpm - 6PM-1AM 3200rpm - 1AM-5AM This 24 hour dynamic variable speed schedule results in 70,140 gallons of water filtered and a total power consumption of 9.63 kW. The national average cost for electricity is $0.13/kWh making this 24 hour pump schedule cost about $1.25 per day. To see this schedule on a 1.5" system, watch this video: https://youtu.be/zcUWGx_MY2g #SwimmingPoolSteve #filtrationschedule #poolpump ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSPCH1vfP7I
