Howdy !
My circulation pump is dying (damaged bearings) and I would like to replace the motor.
I noticed that the former owner of the house already replaced the motor of the pump since the pump datasheet says it's a 1.5HP and the motor is 3/4HP.
The part# of the pump is SPX3215Z1PE (1-1/2HP)
The part# of the motor is SP3207Z1BE (3/4HP)
I was wondering if I could replace the whole pump instead of the motor only. At least I would start over with a brand new pump and I will not have to worry about changing the impeller if I put a new 3/4HP motor.
Also a new motor would cost me about $200 before shipping on INYOPOOLS.COM and I noticed that it is the price of a brand new 1.5HP pump (see below):

Now the question is: Can I use any pump to replace the old one ? Are the dimensions the same ? Are the suction inlet and discarge outlet at the same position ?
Thank you in advance !
