Thanks for the question MJIn general, you want to run the pool pump 8 - 10 hours per day in the Summer and 4 - 8 hours in the Winter. When I had my pool route in Arizona it was recommended that pump be on for 12 hours per day during the Summer.
A correctlysized pump, however, moves the water through the system and sends it back to the pool, filtered, cleaned and ready for swimming. A pool pump should run a minimum of 12 hours a day to turnover, or filter, all the water in a pool. A number of factors can reduce the amount of time required to filter the pool, one of which is the gallon size of your pool. How big your pool is determines how quickly your pump can complete a full turnover of all the water.
