depends on the filter. often times pump motors are overrated. if you have a small filter than replace the motor with the same 3/4hp. you can buy a full rated motor w an uped service factor of 1.25 or greater this equals about another .25 hp giving you a 1hp for the price of the 3/4hp. if the motor or pump was underrated--for instance you have a larger sgft. filter like 400sgft. cartridge or a fns 60 de than you may want to bump up the hp to something like a 1.5 or 2.0. Beware if you increase the hp more than the full rate you will need to change the impeller and diffuser as well.
