states that “The minimum turnover rate shall be a single turnover of the full
volume of the pool water, within the period that the pump would normally be
operating….”
The table below provides a guide only to the running times of your pump
while in filtration mode in order to achieve the minimum turn over rate:

Whenever you increase the pump run time, you should decrease
the chlorine output of your chlorinator to avoid the risk of over chlorination.
