Does a pool pump on 220 volts use the same amount of energy as a 110 volt?

Assuming it is also rated for 120V., yes. The wattage doesn't change with an increase or decrease in voltage. However, the current draw does. When you double the voltage a load is hooked up to, the Amperage draw (current) drops in half. Example: if a 240 volt heater draws 6 amps, it will draw 12 amps if connected to 120V. If a 120V heater draws 15 amps, it will draw only 7.5 amps when connected to 240V. But power, or wattage stays the same, regardless. And this is what is used to calculate energy usage and therefore, cost. Please note the above answer says "if it is also rated for"

Long enough to turn over the full amount of water in the pool every 24 hours.
How many amps does a 1.0hp pool pump pull?
One horsepower is equivalent to 746 watts. So if the motor is wired for 220 volts the current consumed is 3.39 amps. (watts divided by voltage = current) so? the label says 7.6 amps for a 1hp with a SF of 1.25 at 240 volts. 9.6 for a 1.5 hp .this is your typical pool pump motor, what motor are you getting data from ?

Do pool pumps use 220 volt?
Some do and some don't. Small pumps use 120 volts but some very large pumps use 240 volts. Read the owners manual or the data specifications plate on the pump to find out.
How much time should the filter be running after a new pool is plastered?
The filter doesn't run, the pump does. A good rule of thumb is that the pump be sized so as to turn the entire amount of water in the pool over in 8 hours.

What is the voltage on fuel pump 2000 jeep?

Will air in the pool filter harm the above ground pool pump?
A small amount probably won't but it suggests a leak in the suction line; and it will reduce the pump's ability to prime itself, which is bad. A lot of air won't do the pump or its motor any good. I'm not sure if cavitation is a problem in pumps.
