Filtermaster SPH200 Swimming Pool Pump

Model

The Filtermaster FM SPH200 (2.0 hp) is a high-capacity pump built for very large residential pools, typically ranging from 80,000 to 100,000 liters.

At this power level, the pump is moving a massive volume of water. It is generally reserved for pools with high resistance (long pipe runs), multiple water features, or heavy-duty commercial-style filtration requirements.

Performance Specifications

• Flow Rate: Approximately 480 liters per minute (LPM).

• Max Head: 20 meters (exceptionally strong vertical push).

• Hourly Turnover: It can circulate roughly 28,800 liters per hour.

• Power: 1.5 kW (2.0 Horsepower).

Suitable Pool Sizes

This pump is often "overkill" for standard backyard pools but is the correct choice for the following:

Things to Check

• • Filter size: Your filter also needs to match the pump’s flow rate — too small a filter can bottleneck the system.

  • Plumbing diameter & head: Smaller pipe sizes or extra fittings/height can reduce effective flow, so real-world performance may vary a bit. 

Because every pool setup has different levels of resistance (distance from the pool, pipe size, and height), its effectiveness varies. Below is a breakdown of how it fits different pool sizes and setups.
