Hello,
I am planning to replace the single speed 1 HP motor on my MaxFlo pool pump for two speed motor. I do not want to change the whole pump. Instead I want to keep the MaxFlo housing and put a new motor on it.
1) What motors do you recommend? I am basically looking to reduce the cost of running the pump as much as possible.
2) Am I right to assume that the pump with the lowest AMP rating when running at low speed will give me the highest efficiency/lower cost given that it will consume less watts.
3) Finally, I have read that it is a good idea to replace the shaft seal and all o-rings, and gaskets. Is the GOKIT 1 the one I should use?
Thanks,
