Good morning all,

Just a quick question. I went out this morning to check my pool equipment and discovered that my booster pump is cracked. The pump itself is still working, the cleaner is still working, and I don't notice any water leaks.

Is this something I need to replace? If so do I need to replace the entire unit?

Thanks for your assistance.pump 1.jpg
 
That crack is in the back of the motor housing.

When you look in there what do you see?

You need to replace the cover to keep critters from nesting in there.
 
1. Remove the motor fan cover. (R0722600)
• Disconnect the bonding wire from the bonding lug.
a Remove the screw and star washer securing the bonding lug and fan cover to the motor body.
b Remove the screw opposite the bonding lug securing the fan cover in place.
• Fan cover should slide free.

4. Install motor fan cover. (R0722600)

• Slide fan cover over motor fan.

• The bottom clip will snap over the motor.

• IMPORTANT: Reinstall the bonding lug, screw and star washer, do not tighten down completely.

• Position the fan cover so that the opposite side screw can be installed, do not tighten down completely.

• Push the fan cover and bonding lug forward and tighten the bonding lug screw completely.

The fan cover should not be able to move forward or backward.

• Tighten the other fastening screw completely.

• Check to ensure the fan cover is not loose.

• IMPORTANT: Reinstall the bonding wire at the bonding lug.
