Finding a Motor for A Swimming Pool Pump
| If your swimming pool pump is starting to run loudly or making strange noises, it might be time for a new pump motor. Though replacing a motor can seem daunting, we’re here to help you easily identify your replacement motor. It is important that the total horsepower (Service Factor x Horsepower) of your new motor is greater than or equal to the total horsepower of your old motor. Below is a picture of a pump label, where you’ll find all of the information you’ll need when purchasing or replacing your pool pump motor. |
 |
| We’ve highlighted the most important considerations: horsepower, voltage, amperage, hertz, service factor, and phase. Matching up these items on your new pump will ensure that your water will be filtered correctly. We also recommend that you purchase a go-kit that includes new shaft seal gasket and other miscellaneous gaskets and seals that should be replaced. |
| Now that you have a idea of what you will need, replacing your pool pump motor yourself will save you money and make you more knowledgeable of how your pool filtration system works. |
Our downright awesome team of knowledgable people are committed to giving you all the latest pool and spa trends, information, and much more.

I have a Jandy system that includes the Auqualink RS4. My main pump motor has a bearing going out and instead of just changing the bearing, I was interested to see if there is a more efficient motor I can switch to. Motor is Centurion part number 7-193633-24 2 HP mounted on a Jandy stealth pump part number JHPU 2.0
Hi Warren, You could replace that motor with the one linked here. You will also want to replace the seal with the generic replacement linked here as the OEM seal is no longer available.

I have the AO Smith C48K2N143B1 PUMP. Which is a 1HP pump. It seems to be burning out. My pool is a 23k gallon DE pool. Can I upgrade to 1.5 HP or should I go even higher? Should a 1HP pump be enough. My pump doesnt seem to be pulling enough water through the system.
Hi Peter, You can go either way with that pool size 1 or 1.5 HP. If you don’t feel you are getting adequate circulation with a 1 HP pump go ahead and switch to 1.5 but keep in mind that your electric bill will go up. Let us know if you have any questions!
The circut breakers to my pool system shutdown. When I reset the breaker the power came back but the filter pump does not run. I heard a clicking noise in the control box whn I tried switching on the motor manually. I have an AO Smith Part # 7-193988-20. The Pool cleaner motor works along with the pool lights etc… Is there a reset buton on the motor itself that can be reset? Can you help? Thanks
Hi Mike, which pump-filter combination do you currently have? A make and model number of your existing system will quickly help us track down some troubleshooting methods for your current pump-filter. Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
We have a Jacuzzi 1 HP SPL by A.O.Smith. 60 Hz Amps .8 Part # 7-186533-22 When we turn it on all it does is buzz. I looked at the impeller and could not see anything blocking it, but I will remove the motor and look again. If it still buzzes, what do you recommend we replace it with. We have an on ground Wilkes Genesis pool with a 6 ft deep end. Approx 13000 gal.
Hi Tom, if your pool pump’s motor is humming softly but not turning on, it sounds like something my be wrong with either the run capacitor or the start capacitor. At this point, you will need a qualified service technician to take a look at your motor to both identify the problem and troubleshoot it.
If you decide you do need a new motor, the correct replacement motor that you’ll need is the Century A.O. Smith Century Flex-48 48Y Thru-Bolt 3/4 HP Single Speed Above Ground Pool Motor – 9.8A 115V
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us for immediate assistance.
Seeking replacement motor for 7-177476-20 part number for Pentair 1 1/2, 1.47 SF, 2.20 SFHP. I believe the unit part number is 011581. AMPS 11.2/22.4, volts 115/230, rpm 3450, FR: Y56Y, Type: CX
Hi Stan, the replacement motor you will need for the WhisperFlo 011581 is the Century A.O. Smith Century 56Y Square Flange 1-1/2 HP Full Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 10.5/21.0A 115/230V. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
I have a AO Smith Century Centurion motor Part# 7-177475-20 that started making a sporadic noise. I turned off the power to the pump and then turned it back on. Now it only makes a buzzing noise so i turned it right back off. I checked the impeller it’s not broken and the shaft turns. What do you think might be the problem? Perhaps something internal with the motor maybe?
Hi Billy, a buzzing noise can be caused by debris stuck in the impeller. You can remove the motor from the pump to access the impeller and make sure it’s clear of debris. If you’ve cleared all debris and it’s still making noise, then we recommend contacting the manufacturer for additional troubleshooting steps. If it’s something internal with the motor, we suggest consulting a qualified pool technician to come out and check out your equipment. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
I have a AO Smith Centurion switchless pool pump motor that needs replacing. The model number is 7-193987-24. What is the replacement for it? Also, what seals and o-ring will I need?
Hi Mark, in order to find the correct replacement motor, we would need to know the horsepower, voltage, and frame size of your existing motor. If you can also provide us with the make, model, and part number of your pump, that will not only help us find the motor, but the proper seals and o-rings, as well. This will help us narrow down the correct parts you need.
I have a AO Smith Century Centurion that needs replacing. Part 7-177475-20. The impeller is also shredded. What do I need to buy?
Hi Troy, the part number you provided is for your pump’s motor only. While you could replace it and your impeller, it may be more prudent to replace your entire pump. If you prefer to replace the parts alone, you can replace the motor with the Century A.O. Smith Centurion 56Y Square Flange 1-1/2 HP Up-Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 16.0/8.0A 115/230V.
With this motor, you should also replace the seals and o-rings, but in order to recommend the proper kit, and in order to recommend the replacement impeller, we will need to know the make and model number of your pool pump itself, not just its motor. If you can provide us with this information, we will be happy to make a recommendation. For immediate assistance, please feel free to contact us directly.

For more information or immediate assistance, please feel free to contact us directly, and a customer care agent will be happy to offer assistance.

Hi. I have pentair superflo pumps and they are always breaking or at least that is what my pool guy is saying. Want to know if the Challenger series is a very good pump for a pool that has an inground system, waterfall, and spa. I have four pumps. one for filter, one for cleaner, one for spa and one for waterfall. My inground system has been average. I have a 1 hp motor on it now. Is it better to go to a 1.5 for better pressure.
Hi Sam, the Challenger pump is definitely more powerful in comparison to the Superflo. With an output of about 30-35GPM, you can stick with a 1HP Challenger pump. Was your Superflo not giving enough flow to your system? If not, then the Challenger will be a great choice. If you’re looking to increase flow to your water features, a 1.5HP will work.
Because you have multiple pool features, you may want to consider replacing your multiple pumps with a variable-speed pump, like the Pentair IntelliFlo VS. The IntelliFlo VS is a 3HP pump that is designed to meet the precise needs of your pool, and can be programmed for up to eight different speeds for a variety of pool applications, including general filtration, an automatic cleaner, spa and waterfall. Aside from its versatility, one of the major pluses with the IntelliFlo is that it can save up to 90% on energy consumption when compared to a traditional single-speed pump. Please note, if you operate a pressure-side cleaner that uses a booster pump, you will still need the booster.
If you have any further questions about replacement pumps, please feel free to give us a call for immediate assistance.
I have a Pentair pump Part Number 7-177475-20. 1-1/2 HP. Need to order new one, can I just order the motor itself or the do I have order the whole setup? Can you advise the model for the replacement motor?
Hi Mark, you can indeed order just a replacement motor for your WhisperFlo pump, and based on the part number you provided, the proper replacement is the Century A.O. Smith Centurion 56Y Square Flange 1-1/2 HP Up-Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 16.0/8.0A 115/230V. In replacing the motor, you should also replace the o-rings and seals, and the Aladdin Equipment Company Go-Kit Purex WhisperFlo Pump Series O-Ring Kit has everything you will need. If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
My Model Number just says 177475. Do I need the same replacement motor and seals?
Hi Ron, based on the part number you have provided, the replacement motor you will need for your Pentair WhisperFlo pump is the Century A.O. Smith Century 56Y Square Flange 1 HP Full Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 8.0/16.0A 115/230V. You will also need the Aladdin Equipment Company Go-Kit Purex WhisperFlo Pump Series O-Ring Kit to replace the seals and o-rings. Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
Will this new Inteliflow Pentair Variable Speed 3hp work with my Goldline panel? I am really excited about this motor. Unfortunately, the pool installers used mostly Hayward. I have been trying to slowly replaced all those “very loud” motors. Please advice. Thank you
Hi Sun, the Pentair IntelliFlo VS is an excellent, energy efficient and quiet pump that can certainly work with Hayward Goldline products, but you will not be able to control the functions of your Goldline products from the IntelliFlo’s built-in control. The IntelliFlo VS can be programmed for up to eight precise speeds to meet the needs of your pool and applications, including a Goldline solar heating system or salt chlorinator, but it will not know exactly what it is controlling.
If you have a Hayward automatic control system, you can install a Pentair IntelliComm II Interface Adapter in order to allow your IntelliFlo to communicate with your Hayward control. If you have further questions, please feel free to call us for immediate assistance.
I’m trying to find a replacement motor for my Jandy pump. The model number is 7-193993-05 any help is greatly appreciated. I also need the impeller component that mounts to the motor. Thank you.
Hi Tom, in order to recommend the proper replacement motor and impeller for your pump, we will need to know the part number of your pump itself. Unfortunately, the number you provided does not give us enough information to go by. If you could please provide us with your pump’s part number, we would be happy to recommend the appropriate replacement parts. For immediate assistance, please feel free to contact us directly.

I have a skc38sn6084ax marathon pump HP1 V115/230 HZ 60 SF 1.25 PH 1 the back piece that attaches to the basket via 4 bolts has cracked – the piece that I have to hook up to the pump by clamping it together is cracked – how can I replace that part and how much will it cost. Many thanks.
Hi Derek, it sounds like what you are experiencing is likely a cracked seal plate. At this time, no replacement parts are manufactured for Marathon motors, and therefore you will need to replace your entire pump. To determine the best pump for your pool, could you please provide us with your pool’s type and size, your filter type and size and the features you have on your pool (automatic cleaner, waterfall, spa, etc.). If you would like immediate assistance, please feel free to contact us directly, and a customer care agent will be happy to assist you.
We have a free form pool. 3 waterfalls and 2 separate motors. 1. 1hp motor single speed for waterfalls. 2. One 11/2 hp filter pump motor 2 speed. The original setup was one 1 1/2 for the waterfalls. Worked for 8yrs. The second original filter pump motor 3hp. worked for 8 yrs. The new 1hp waterfall motor is the third pentair installed and had to be rebuilt. The new 11/2 hp filter pump motor only works on high for 5min then drops down to a very low speed that will not even move the in pool sweeper around. We have to turn on the water fall motor and the filter pump motor to clean the pool. We were told the original motors were too much power. Really our total bill for electric is 185.00. Run time used to be 4hrs. Now our elec. bill is 200.00 and we have to run the two motors together, when they work, for 16hrs and the water fall for 2hrs. Originally, 3hp for 4hrs Now 2 1/2hp for 2 then 16hrs. This is not a savings and I have been told in California this is what Edision Electric wants. Can you help? Nate
Hi Nate, we definitely understand the frustrations that come with energy consuming pool pumps and costly electrical bills, and it is pool configurations like yours that benefit the most from variable speed pumps. Rather than single and dual speed pumps that consistently stay at one high speed, variable speed pumps are designed to switch between low and high speeds depending on the application desired. This is critical to lowering energy use and reducing high utility bills.
For example, the Pentair IntelliFlo VS is a great choice for pools with multiple features, including general circulation, waterfalls, pool cleaners and more. It includes eight different speed settings to choose from, ranging from 450 RPM to 3450 RPM and uses an integrated timer that allows you to set different speeds throughout the week, which means it will switch between higher and lower speeds at the times you choose. For example, you can set the IntelliFlo VS to run at a higher RPM for your multiple water fountains for two hours, before setting it at the lowest RPM for general circulation.
Because you have multiple waterfalls, it is also recommended to take a look at the Pentair IntelliFlo VF. Like the IntelliFlo VS, the IntelliFlo VF offers multiple speeds to choose from and includes a timer to set speeds throughout the week. However, it is designed to automatically adjust its speed to maintain the flow rate chosen, and therefore it is a great option for pools with water features that require a certain water pressure. As with the VS, the IntelliFlo VF is a suggested way to save on high energy bills.
If you’re interested in choosing a new pump, we welcome you to give us a call for immediate, one-on-one assistance. A customer service representative will be happy to offer any advice on energy saving tips and variable speed pumps to help lower your electricity bills.
Hello, we are purchasing a home that has a small/medium in-ground pool (sorry, I don’t know the number of gallons). The previous owner stated the motor burned out, so I would like to replace it soon. It currently has a AO Smith motor attached to a Jandy Stealth pump (1.5HP). I would like to see about upgrading to a Pentair VS or VF. Can you tell me if this would be a good match? Here are the motor specs: AO Smith,part #7-193633-24, Type CX, FR: P56J, Phase 1, 60Hz, 3450 rpm, 230/115 volts, Amps SF 9.2/18.4. Thank you!
Hi Stephan, either the IntelliFlo VS or IntelliFlo VF would be a great replacement for your Jandy Stealth pump, but which IntelliFlo is right for you will depend on the type of control you are looking for as well as the equipment on your pool. The IntelliFlo VS can be manually programmed for up to eight custom speeds while the IntelliFlo VF will automatically self-set and self-adjust to meet the flow rate needs of your pool. You can learn more about the differences between the two pumps in our IntelliFlo VS and IntelliFlo VF Comparison blog.
If you have a solar heating or in-floor cleaning system, we would recommend the IntelliFlo VS over the VF because the change in water pressure caused by your solar or in-floor cleaning system may trigger the built-in blockage detection system in the VF, causing the pump to shut off.
When installing an IntelliFlo pump, we highly recommend contacting a local pool service technician. If you have further questions about which IntelliFlo pump is right for you, please feel free to give us a call for immediate assistance.
We have a 17,500 gallon in-ground pool, free form, and we are located on the Gulf Coast of Central Florida. Our pool pump motor is currently a single speed up-rated 1 Horsepower Marathon Electric unit, model number SKC38SN6084AX. Voltage 115/230 / Amperage 14.0/7.0 / Hertz 60 / Service Factor 1.25 / Phase 1. Please recommend an energy efficient alternative, preferrably with an energy efficient variable speed pump.
Hi S., for your 17,500 gallon free form pool, we highly recommend the Pentair IntelliFlo VS. This variable-speed pump can save up to 90 percent on energy consumption when compared to standard single-speed pumps. With the IntelliFlo VS, you can set up to eight custom speeds between 450 and 3,450 RPM to meet your pool’s needs, and its built-in timer allows you to program a weekly performance schedule. The IntelliFlo VS is built with an extremely-efficient permanent magnet motor and has a totally enclosed, fan-cooled design that promotes durability, longevity, high-quality performance and quiet operation. If you have any further questions on the IntelliFlo VS or other variable-speed pumps, please don’t hesitate to ask.
I bought a StaRite pump for my inground pool from you a year or so ago. Can I replace the motor with a variable speed motor?
Hi Ed, while it is possible to replace your existing single-speed motor with a variable-speed, it would require replacing the motor, drive and impeller, and at that point, it is recommended to replace your entire pump with a variable-speed pump. If you can tell us the make and model number of your existing pump, we will be happy to find the pieces you need for a complete retrofit, or if you’d like, we can offer some great suggestions on variable-speed pool pumps, such as the Pentair IntelliFlo VS. If you have any further questions or would like immediate assistance, please feel free to contact us directly.
i have a jandy stealth 1.5 hp motor. Need a replacement. Whatdo you recommend
Hi Lynn, in order to recommend a suitable replacement motor for your Jandy Stealth pump we will need to know the part number of your current motor, and the part number of your pump, if possible. If you could please provide us with these numbers, we will be happy to recommend a replacement. If you cannot find the number, please provide us with as much information from your motor’s information plate as possible. Please feel free to contact us for immediate assistance.
I am looking for a replacement motor for a SP1510-Z-1-XB 1081 Pool Pump Duty HP 1 Volts 115 Amp 40 C Hz 80 or 60 can’t tell PH 1. What motor would be compatable? Thank You
Hi Vicky, if your pool pump is a Hayward Power-Flo and the motor is actually labeled with part number SP1510-Z-1-XE, not XB, the proper replacement motor is Hayward Pool Products Inc. Motor 1 HP with Switch. If you have further questions or would like to make sure this is the proper motor for your pump, please contact us for immediate assistance.
Hello, I need a replacement pump for our pool. The previous home owner moved the pump and filter from the spa to the main pool probably because he didn’t want to spend the additional money. I am interested to know if the Pentair IntelliFlo 3HP Variable Speed Ultra Energy-Efficient Pool Pump – 011018 will work as my main motor and what additional pieces would be required. I need it by the third week of march delivered to my home. Thanks Steve
Hi Steve, the Pentair IntelliFlo 3HP Variable Speed Pool Pump is an extremely energy efficient pump that is a great addition to most pools, but whether it will be a fit for your pool depends on your pool type and size, as well as the current equipment and number of features you operate. The IntelliFlo VS can be set to run at up to eight different speeds (between 450 and 3,450 RPM) for up to eight different pool or spa functions. It is equipped with 2″ unions, and works best with 2″ plumbing. To better determine if the IntelliFlo VS or another pump would be the best fit for your pool, please feel free to give us a call, and one of our friendly, knowledgeable customer service representatives will be happy to assist you.
I am looking for a replacement motor. Hayward Northstar self priming sp 1615 z-1mnsc volts 208-230115 type cx 2hp. amps sf 11.0-10.220.4 hz60 can you help me?
Hi Lisa, the proper replacement motor for your Hayward Northstar pump is the Century A.O. Smith 56J C-Face 2 HP Up-Rated Hayward Northstar Replacement Pump Motor – 11.0-10.2/20.4A 208-230/115V. Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
I did not give you the required information on my previous e-mail. The motor I need is as follows: HP-1, VOLTS-115/230, AMPS-15.0/7.5, HZ-60, SF-1.1, PH-1 It is MODEL C48K2N143B1, 75KW, 3450 RPM. Can I purchase from you? Thanks, Danny Pringle
My motor is on its’ last leg. It is a Hayward 1 HP, .75KW, 3450 RPM, 115/230 Volts, Model- C48K2N143B1. It is 7 years old so the model may not exist. It is a SUPER II PUMP. Do you have a replacement? I only need the motor.
Hi Danny, as a replacement for your Hayward Super II pump’s existing motor, part number C48K2N143B1, either the A.O. Smith 56J C-Face 1 HP Single Speed Up Rated Pool Filter Motor – 15.0/7.5A 115/230V or the A.O. Smith 56J C-Face 3/4 HP Single Speed Full Rated Pool Filter Motor – 15.0/7.5A 115/230V will work. These are identical motors. The only difference between them is the 1 HP motor is up-rated while the 3/4 HP motor is full-rated.
To better understand up-rated versus full-rated motors, feel free to check out our Basic Guide to Understanding Pool Pump Motors, and if you have any further questions, please feel free to give us a call.
Like a previous inquiry (Patrece ), I have a A.O. Smith E-Plus Energy Efficient 56Y Square Flange 2 HP motor that I believe has a bad capacitor (hums but won’t spin). The motor is about 4 years old, so replacing the capacitor seems a reasonable solution. Do I need to disassamble the motor to determine the specs on the capacitor in order to get the right one? Would you likely carry the capacitor? I noticed that the capacitor sits atop the motor, can it be replaced without having to remove the motor?
Hi P Best, to determine the part number of your pool pump motor’s capacitor we would need to reference the motor’s model number or serial number, both of which you should be able to find on the name plate on your motor. If you could please provide us with this information, we’d be happy to help you track down the proper replacement capacitor and its installation procedures.
The tag on the pump does not list Model Number, but does have a serial number: 35907CH. It does say Century Centurion on on the top of the tag. The “Part” is listed as O-193995-07
Hi P Best, we are researching a replacement capacitor for your motor based on the additional information you provided, and someone will be in contact with you shortly regarding an answer. As for the installation procedure, since your capacitor sits atop your motor, you will not have to take the motor apart. All you’ll need to do is remove the capacitor cover, unlock the old capacitor, put the new one in and replace the cover. Thanks for you patience. We’ll be in contact soon!
My newer pool and pump is only three (3) years old. The Pool Pump is an EMERSON “Star Pump, SmartMax(tm)” SP3207Z1MR. Model: K63CXFEL-4992, RPM: 3450, Volts: 230/115, HZ: 60, PH1. This pump has “rusted out” with a rust hole in the side of the Pump. The Sticker reads: “For Replacement Parts, Visit [www.bluehaven.com].” These people “DO NOT RESPOND or ANSWER ANY PHONE CALLS.” All other parts are “HAYWARD.” WHY? Would they not have a “Hayward Pump” for continuity? Can you help me/us with a New Replacement Pump that Fits the Other Parts and INFO. Provided? Thank you, we are most appreciative! Jane & Mike
Hi Jane and Mike, we’re sorry to hear you’ve been having problems with your pool pump. We’ve forwarded your inquiry to our customer service and support team, and a representative will be in contact with you shortly to help you find the replacement pump and parts you need.

I need a replacement motor for a Jandy Stealth SHPF 2.0 pump. The original part number of the current motor is 7-193995-07, serial number 249063M. Here are the specs off of the motor label: Type: CX Frame: Y56Y HP: blank SF: blank Phase: 1 Hz: 60 RPM: 3450 Volts: 208-230 Amps SF: 11.0/10.0 Time: CONT Encl: DP Form: KJM I have also recently replace the motor on two Jandy Stealth SHPF 1.0 pumps. The original part number of those motors was 7-193993-05. I replacement them with an AO Smith 0-196255-05 (cat: B2841). Now I am wondering if this is the correct motor. After searching for the correct 2hp motor, I also ran across AS Smith Cat. B848. Not sure what the difference is, on is from the “Centurion® “1081” • Full Rate • High Service Factor” line and the other is from the “E-Plus® Energy Efficient “1081” • New Centurion • Full Rate” line. Here are the specs off of the original 1hp motor: Type: CX Frame: Y56Y HP: blank SF: blank Phase: 1 Hz: 60 RPM: 3450 Volts: 208-230/115 Amps SF: 7.8-7.4/14.8 Time: CONT Encl: DP Form: KJM Please let me know if the 1hp motors are the correct ones and can you also let me know which is the proper motor for the 2hp pump. Also, is there a better motor that you would recomment instead of those listed above??? Thanks for your help!
Hi Patrece, the A.O. Smith E-Plus Energy Efficient 56Y Square Flange 1 HP Full Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motors – 7.8-7.4/14.8A 115/208-230V (B2841) you used to replace your former 1HP, Jandy Stealth SHPF 1.0 pump motors are the correct and recommended replacement motors. We would not recommend using the A.O. Smith Century 56Y Square Flange 1 HP Full Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 8.0/16.0A 115/230V (B2848, which is the same as B848) as its dimensions and service factor rating are different than your previous motor.
For your Jandy Stealth SHPF 2.0 Pump, the proper replacement motor is A.O. Smith E-Plus Energy Efficient 56Y Square Flange 2 HP Full Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 11.0-10.2A 208-230V (B2843). If you have further questions or would like immediate assistance, please feel free to contact us.
What is the correct motor replacement for my Pentair Challenger 1 1/2 HP pump assembly Label 35-5460. The AO Smith centurion motor plate shows: Centurion 1 1/2 HP Part 7 168 453-24 Frame Y56Y Type CX Form KJM Serial CA07-22 Code j RPM 3450 230/115 volts 1081 pool pump duty mountHORIZ P/N 35-5340 No service factor shown What other seals etc should I order? Thanks
Hi Ed, in speaking with the manufacturer of your pump, the Pentair Challenger pump you have given us the part number to, model number 355460, does not match up to the A.O. Smith Centurion motor you mentioned, as the pump is a 2 HP pump and the motor is a 1-1/2 HP motor.
Based on the motor’s serial number and part (7 168 453-24) you provided, the manufacturer of the motor suggests the A.O. Smith Century 56Y Square Flange 1-1/2 HP Up-Rated Pool and Spa Pump Motor – 8.0/16.0A 115/230V as a replacement motor, but before we can recommend it for certain, could you please re-check the part numbers on both your pump and motor, so we can be sure you will be getting the proper replacement? Thanks, and have a great day.
I need a replacement new pool motor/pump. Current Brand is A C Smith Model Century 230 V, 60 Hz 2.4 HP motor. Can’t read the Amps but most probably its 15Amp. Do you need more information to quote for a new motor. Shipping Zip Code: 77498
Hi Terry, thanks for your great question. Yes, we do carry the motor for the Hayward Super Pump 1-1/2 HP pool pump. You can find it on our site listed as the Hayward Super Pump 1-1/2HP Replacement Pool Motor. We would also recommend that you replace your shaft seal assembly when you change out the motor to prevent water from leaking into the new motor. For this, you’ll want to go with the Hayward Pool Products Inc. OEM Seal Assembly. Please let us know if we can answer any other questions or assist you in placing an order.

Hi David, in order to find you a proper replacement motor for your Pentair WF-28 WhisperFlo Up-Rated Standard Efficiency 2HP Pool Pump – 22.4/11.2A 115/230V, we would need a bit more information from you on your current motor, including: shaft size, face, voltage and HP. Also, is the amperage you are specifying 10.5/21.0? It is crucial in replacing a pump motor that the specs match.
From the specs you gave us, we believe a comparable pump motor from a different manufacturer would be the Emerson 56 Y-Frame Hayward TriStar Single Speed 2HP Up-Rated Premium Energy Efficient Pool and Spa Motor – 10.8/21.6A 115V/230V, however, before we can definitively recommend this motor to you, we need to be certain it is, in fact, the proper replacement. On another note, to prevent future issues with a new pump motor, make sure the wiring voltage matches the motor voltage (230v or 115v). If the voltages don’t match, the motor could burn up.
Also, be sure to read the section on page four in your pump’s owner’s manual on “Care of Electric Motor”. You can find the owner’s manual linked as a PDF to your pump’s product page. If you could please provide us with the requested information, we would be happy to help you find the correct replacement motor for your WhisperFlo pump.

Hi Larry, before we could give you a proper recommendation on a replacement motor for your pump, we would need a bit more information. While you provided some of the specs of your motor, if you could please provide us with the voltage of the motor, and most importantly (in determining the correct replacement), the model number of the motor, we would be more than happy to help you find the proper replacement motor for your pump.
Hi Looking for a replacement motor for my Doughboy power pak III. 1 or 1.5 HP will do. Doghboy #’s 300-1091 and 300-1092. Thanks, Tim
Hi Tim, thank you for your question regarding a replacement for your Doughboy Power Pak III. Are you looking for a UL or NEC model motor? If you are looking for a 1HP UL motor, you will need the Power Pak III 0-1076-000. If you are looking for a 1HP NEC motor, you will need a Power Pak III 0-1076-006. We do not currently carry either of these motors at PoolSupplyWorld, but if you could please contact us, we would be happy to work with you on a special order.
