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.

What do you recommend that I replace Motor #10-186016-20 with?

Hi Guadalupe, the single-speed replacement motor for your motor part number 186016 is the B748 however we would recommend using a variable speed for energy saving and efficiency. That motor model would be the ECM27SQU and it is recommended to also replace the seals when replacing a pool motor. In order to locate the correct seals, we will just need to know the front pump wet end housing model name or number that the motor attaches to.
