The Filtermaster SPH150 swimming pool pump provides 1.5 hp (1.1 kW) of power for residential pool circulation and filtration. Whether you are replacing an existing pump or planning a new setup, match the SPH150 to your filter and plumbing to get the right flow for your pool.

Specifications at a glance

• Model: Filtermaster FM SPH150
• Power: 1.5 hp / 1.1 kW

Actual flow depends on your installation, including pipe size, pipe length, fittings, elevation and filter resistance. The quoted flow rate and maximum head are separate performance figures, not a single operating point.

Is the SPH150 right for your pool?

The SPH150 is listed for large residential pools of approximately 70,000–90,000 litres. Treat this as an initial sizing guide rather than a guarantee: pool volume is only one part of choosing the right pump.

If your pool includes solar heating, a waterfall or other water features, confirm the additional flow and head requirements before ordering.

Check before ordering

• Filter capacity: Check that your filter can handle the pump’s operating flow.
• Plumbing: Confirm pipe sizes and connection requirements. Longer runs and extra fittings can reduce the flow delivered.
• Replacement fit: Compare your existing pump’s connections, dimensions and installation space.
• System requirements: Account for elevation changes, solar heating and water features when selecting your pump.
