For the most accurate result, measure your pump’s amp draw using a clamp meter.
This calculator uses real electrical measurements rather than estimated horsepower ratings.
The average residential electricity cost in Georgia is roughly $0.14–$0.17 per kWh, depending on usage tiers and seasonal pricing.
How This Calculator Works
Most pool pumps run between 8–24 hours per day. Electricity cost depends on how much power the pump uses and how long it runs.
This calculator estimates the cost using a simple formula:
Watts = Voltage × Amps
That power usage is then converted to kilowatt-hours (kWh), which is how electric companies bill for energy.
Example:
A pump drawing 8 amps at 230 volts uses about 1.84 kW of power.
Running that pump 12 hours per day can cost around $90–$110 per month depending on local electricity rates.
