I know we will need a pump or pump motor soon so I'm researching. The folks at InyoPools told me that I can upgrade my current single speed pump with this VS motor for about 1/2 or 1/3 of the price of a whole new pump.
Hayward MaxFlo VS Motor Upgrade Kit - 1.65HP - MKIT1VS16 - INYOPools.com
That sounds great to me but there's not a lot of details or specs on the motor and no reviews or questions. It's listed as 1.65 HP - at some point my husband would like to put in a heater and I would like a SWG. Is this sufficient for that? My knowledge of VS pumps is about this much <>.
or I think I can replace the motor with a dual speed pump but have to buy the switch separately:
A.O. Smith Century 1.5 HP Round Flange 56J Dual Speed Full Rate Motor - STS1152R - INYOPools.com
A.O. Smith End Cover Switch Assembly - 1011431-001 - INYOPools.com
Thoughts from the gurus are appreciated.
