Are all Hayward Tristar Pumps considered variable speed?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/18/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

>No, The only variable speed TriStar pump is model#: SP322063EEV. This pump requires either the SP3220VSC - TriStar Energy Solution Control stand alone control, or the SP3220VSCAQL - TriStar Energy Solution Control for Pro Logic

Hi. This Hayward TriStar Pump - SP3215X20 is a single speed pump, the model you have (SP3215X202) is a dual-speed version. The direct replacement will be model # SP32152EE.

what is the difference between the tristar pump SP3225 and the super II SP3020. They both appear to be 2.5HP.
 Reply

A  Answered on 10/31/2019 by InyoPools Product Specialist Lennox H.

Hi, Gregory. The performance is the difference. The TriStar Pump is designed to move more water than the Super II Pump.

I have a Hayward SP4015X202NS what's the best reasonable price replacement that is a drop in. Not trying to re-work my piping
 Reply

A  Answered on 5/29/2021 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Hi Gilbert, Based on your model # your old pump was a dual speed. If you are okay with a single speed then this would be the correct pump for you. You would also need this Hayward Northstar to Tristar Riser Base so you dont have any re-plumbing.

What pump would you recommend to replace my Jandy Stealth 2hp Model #SHPM2.0 pump.
 Reply

A  Answered on 7/29/2021 by InyoPools Product Specialist Craig C.

Hello Brien.  The Hayward Pool Products TriStar 2.0 HP Max Rated Pool Pump is a compatible replacement for the Jandy Stealth 2.0 HP model SHPM Pool Pump.  Comparing the performance data for each pump, they are very similar.  In all probability, there will be re-plumbing required to make the transition.

I have an old Hayward Northstar with a 2hp and 2" inlet... i am looking at this Hayward W3SP3215X20 model to replace it... i have an older timer setup so its on/off with a timer power setup.
