    Pentair motor replacement

    Thanks for the quick reply I have watched youtube vidoes of the shaft seal and impeller remove/replacement. That link is very helpful as well. I like the suggestion on the pump, but would you have a single speed that you recommend? They are looking to spend as little as possible. Hence me...

    where else to check for air leaks?

    what if you have to open the air bleed everytime you run the pump? I also see air bubbles coming out of my return line. I also lose prime in the pump.

    What's your current pool temp?

    My re-plum/equipment move project

    My re-plum/equipment move project

    The one problem I ran into was too much pressure to the waterfountain. It also didn't give me enough pressure to the deck jets. To help that out i installed a valve. This has helped the pressure problem to the water fountain but I am still having trouble with the deck jet on the right hand...

    My re-plum/equipment move project
