To estimate the cost of running your pool pump(s):
746 watts per Horsepower and most of these pumps are 85% efficient. -> 0.746/0.85= 0.88
pump hp * 0.88 * hours per day * 30 * cost of electricty ($/kWh)
for me: 27,000 gallon pool
1 hp pump * 0.88 10 * * 30 * 0.089 = $23.496 per month.
but I also have a second 1/2 horse pump which runs 2 hours per day = $2.3496 per month
