Can you direct me to the proper hi low switch for this motor?

Unfortunately the manufacturer does not offer the switch for the 2 speed 220v motors any longer. If you already have a 220 volt timer (on/off) you would need an Intermatic T106R to switch from high to low speed. If you do not have a timer currently you would need the T10604R which is a 220v on/off timer and a high/low timer.

Hi, I currently have a 1hp Hayward Max Flo XL pump, is it possible to replace the motor with this one?

Hi, Alex. Yes, it is possible to replace your existing 1.0 HP motor with this 2.0 HP Dual-Speed motor. If you would like to increase the pump's performance to match the new motor, you will have to replace the Impeller - SPX2715CM to match.

what century motor will replace a Hayward Max-Flo II 2 HP 2-Speed Motor - SPX2715Z2M

Hi Christy, the Century motor model that can replace the SPX2715Z2M is part number SQS1152R. It is also recommended to replace the seals when replacing a motor. In order to locate those, we will need the front pump wet end housing model name or number. You can also upload a few images of that housing in a reply here if you need.

Is the Century pool motor B855 an exact replacement for the Century B2855 motor?
 Reply

Hello Bob, correct the century 2.0 HP square flange 56Y up rate motor B855 is no longer available and replaced by B2855. We also recommend replacing the seals and gaskets when replacing a pool pump motor. Here is our "Finding the Tune-Up Kit for Your Pool Pump" guide which should assist you with that.
