My pump isn't that old (5 years) but keeps shutting off (tripping the breaker), so it must be overheating. I took it in to a motor repair place a couple of years ago and he replaced the gasket and impeller (he has the same pump on his own pool). Last year, the impeller wasn't moving freely and he freed it up. This year, he said it's fine at the shop but it's not working right here. He wants to sell me a new motor for it. My neighbor is an electrician and he says the the electric is still working fine.
The pool is quite old (29 years, including the liner) so I'll be doing something else with it sometime soon -- how long can a liner last....
Current pump is a 1 HP Hayward Super Pump, connected to a Hayward EC65 DE filter and pipes are buried underground. Pool gallons should be around 15,000. Should I get a whole new Hayward pump, replace the motor or get a different brand? Also, do I really need 1 HP?
Thanks in advance for any ideas....
