It is better to run it for short periods several time a day than it is to run it once. I run mine for 3 hours three times a day, avoiding the peak hot periods. Hatawa

How often do you need to run the filter system in a swimming pool?
This depends largely on how much use it gets or how much dust and impurity's are blown or dropped into the pool. if you have a salt water pool then you have to run it long enough to generate enough chlorine to keep the chlorine up. If it is an ordinary fresh water pool then usually some where between 6 and 8 hours per day on average.
On a 36x16 in ground ground pool how often should you run the pump in the filter position?
If you have 36 ft. x 16 ft. pool I would run the filter and pump 24 hr a day and backwash when ever you have a 7-10 psi raise on filter pressure gauge. All commercial pools run 24 hr per day. If you want sparkling clear pool I recommend that you do the same. john www.unblockabledraincovers.com

Should an ingound pool filter be run at the same time as a pool heater or can you just run the heater alone?
Heaters are usually plumbed in after the filter. The pool filter/pump is what circulates the heated water. Ans: The heater will not work or fire if the pump is not running.
What do you do if there is too much chlorine in your pool?

How often do you use a pool filter when you have very little use?
I run the filter every night for 6 to 8 hrs no matter what and make sure my skimmer has chlorine in it.......never have had bad pool water and there are days even a week of no use. If you don't filter it daily you will get sediment on the bottom and algae.
