but I still can't find any information about the power consumption. If I'm reading the specifications wrong, which specs should I be looking at? If not, does anyone have a rough figure from experience? Thanks.


Hidden in the parts list are two sizes of motor stators giving 1/3 or 1/2 horsepower. A horsepower is approximately 746 watts. Assume a motor efficiency and then apply a "fudge factor" for starting current and such. My guess, with a good safety margin, is about a kilowatt.

Better data should be printed on the nameplate of the pump.
