What is Service Factor?
Reply
Service Factor(SF) is a multiplier that when multiplied by the horsepower of the motor indicates the total permissible horsepower loading that may be carried when the motor is operating at rated voltage and frequency. The most important thing to remember when replacing a motor is that the replacement motor's horsepower times its service factor must be equal to or greater than the original motor's horsepower times its service factor. The Service Factor rating can be found on the motor label. See Step 4 of our How to Read a Pool Motor Label guide.

Why do I need to purchase a new shaft seal?
Reply
We strongly recommend replacing the shaft seal. The purpose of a shaft seal is to prevent water from running down the shaft of the motor and into the motor housing. Water will damage the bearings and cause the motor to fail. A new shaft seal should be installed whenever a motor is replaced. The motor manufacturer can deny the warranty if the motor fails to due to water damage from a faulty shaft seal. To find your shaft seal you will need to visit our Pool Pump Parts Page or the Spa Pump Parts Page and select your make and model.

Why should I purchase a Tune Up Kit?
Reply
A Tune Up Kit includes all of the essential replacement seals and gaskets for the pump. The seals and gaskets should be replaced when installing a new motor on your pump. New seals will prevent the pump from leaking water or losing the prime. A Tune Up Kit will protect your motor and ensure that the pump is working efficiently.

Perfect replacement and fit. I had a variable speed motor that went bad just months after the warranty expired. Calculated the difference in cost between a variable speed vs 2 speed, both purchase and operating $. Not only is the 2 speed cheaper over 3 years but I eliminated the Achilles heel of the variable speed which is the control board, with a mechanical timer. Not as accurate but can withstand power surges better and is easily replaceable. VS motors have a circuit board that is not replaceable, Have to buy the complete motor. Very important detail when living in the lightening strike capital of the world (aka Florida)

This motor is really powerful and reliable my old motor went out but lasted 10 years so I bought the same model expecting another 10 years of service. The price was unbeatable no other place had it this low. I'm so happy with this purchase!

Ordered as a replacement, looks like it will be a perfect fit, but I need to order other parts before finishing the job. Good pricing and shipping.
