Pool Pump Models & SpecsUpdated an hour ago

FibroPool offers reliable and affordable circulating pumps for both above-ground and in-ground swimming pools. The two main series are:

ABG Series – designed mainly for above-ground pools
FP Series – designed mainly for in-ground pools (can also be used on larger above-ground pools)

All pumps are self-priming, corrosion-resistant (suitable for chlorine and saltwater pools) and come with a strainer basket to catch leaves and debris.

Quick Comparison Table

FibroPool Pump Comparison Chart

Model	Horsepower (HP)	Max Flow Rate (GPM)	Voltage	Installation Style	Typical Pool Type	Best For
ABG020	0.2 – 1/5 HP	~42 GPM	115 V	Plug-in (GFCI required)	Small above-ground pools	Very small pools, low budget
ABG033	0.33 – 1/3 HP	~45 GPM	115 V	Plug-in (GFCI required)	Small–medium above-ground pools	Most common above-ground size
ABG050	0.5 HP	~50 GPM	115 V	Plug-in (GFCI required)	Medium above-ground pools	Very popular choice
ABG100	1 HP	~75 GPM	115 V	Plug-in (GFCI required)	Larger above-ground pools	Bigger above-ground or small in-ground
FP100	1 HP	~80 GPM	115/230 V	Hardwired (electrician recommended)	Medium in-ground / large above-ground	Good all-round in-ground pump
FP150	1.5 HP	~90 GPM	115/230 V	Hardwired (electrician recommended)	Medium–large in-ground pools	Most common in-ground size
FP200	2 HP	~100 GPM	230 V	Hardwired (electrician recommended)	Large in-ground pools	Big pools or high-head systems

Pro Tip: For any of these models, consider upgrading to a FibroPool Variable-Speed pump — they save 50–80% on energy and automatically adjust to your exact needs.

Notes:

GPM (gallons per minute) is the maximum flow at low resistance. Real-world flow will be lower depending on pipes, filter and height.
115 V models are plug-in (use a dedicated GFCI-protected outlet).
230 V models must be hardwired (usually requires a licensed electrician).

Quick Summary – Which pump should I choose?

Recommended FibroPool Pump by Pool Size (8-hour turnover)

Pool Size (gallons)	Recommended Single-Speed Pump	HP	Best For
Up to 6,000	ABG050 or ABG075	0.5–0.75	Small above-ground pools
6,000 – 10,000	Fp075(T) or ABG100	0.75–1	Small in-ground or large above-ground
10,000 – 15,000	Fp100(T) or Fp120(T)	1–1.25	Most common residential pools
15,000 – 20,000	Fp150(T)	1.5	Medium in-ground pools
20,000 – 25,000	Fp200(T)	2.0	Larger in-ground pools
25,000 – 30,000	Fp250(T)	2.5	Very large pools
