    Any idea why this pump motor is making this noise? Bad bearing?

    Thanks! I talked with the company that replaced the motor. They thought it sounded like something was stuck in the impeller, but I'm rather sure it's not the case. I took apart the diffuser and impeller and I do see some rust. So it seams like a bad bearing? I'm probably out of my depths trying...

    Any idea why this pump motor is making this noise? Bad bearing?

    Thanks! I appreciate the input. No there is no leaks. Any water in the video/pictures is from when I took everything apart to clean the impeller. I'll double check though just to be 100% sure.

    Any idea why this pump motor is making this noise? Bad bearing?

    Hi thanks. I'll add the labels below. There is no leaking. I did get the motor replaced last year, but I think they just replaced the motor itself. I think the impeller, diffuser, etc. weren't replaced. I wish I would have been paying a bit more attention, but lesson learned. Unfortunately...

    Any idea why this pump motor is making this noise? Bad bearing?

    I have a Century B128 motor for my pool. I just noticed the other day it's making a strange noise but working fine. It's almost a rattling noise, but there isn't anything loose on it. I thought for sure something was stuck in the impeller, but I cleaned that out and it's still making the noise...

    Do I need to regularly add bromide to my spa to keep the reserve up, or just shock it?

    I've read the guide (How do I use Bromine in my spa (or pool)?) but have a few questions. I want to switch from chlorine to bromine and specifically, and would like to use the "two step" method (no floater). Do I need to regularly add bromide? Pool store says yes, that the bromide bank/reserve...

    Pressure Relief Valve on top of filter is leaking. What to replace?

    My sand filter (Hayward S210S) has a relief valve on top that is leaking. It's not leaking where the gauge screws into the valve, but between the filter and the valve itself. The valve just continues to spin when I screw it into the filter. Is it possible that I'm missing an o-ring? I also put a...
