    Replacement pump for US Motors 1081 Pool Motor

    OK guys so I took apart my corroded pump. Once most of the corrosion was removed it spun quite freely. Can a professional look at these pictures and suggest putting it back together with a new seal or replacing the motor all together? Thanks! Rmal75

    I'm having the exact same problem with the exact same US Motors model. I'm wondering, did you ever diagnose the issue and how did you fix it? Thanks!

    Replacement pump for US Motors 1081 Pool Motor

    Hi all. I appreciate the help in advance. I currently have the Emerson/US Motors 1081 Pool Motor (Model C55CXKLT-5007) on my filter pump. Its been dead since Saturday and I don't have time to hire a pool guy to replace it. That could take weeks by me and I really don't want a green pool next...

    Salt water impact on pump

    Well I went away for a few days and I come home and my filter pump is making a humming noise and not running at all. I'm not sure what the issue is but the pump is no more than 4 years old.

    Salt water impact on pump

    Is there anything to consider with respect to a filter pump when converting to salt water? I understand I need to keep the water balanced but is there something the salt water can do that will damage a pump or other equipment? Thanks, Rmal75

    PVC Repair - plug hole left from chlorinator inlet fitting

    This sounds like a good option. I saw a guy do this on YouTube. Should the clamp remain on the coupling piece going forward?

    PVC Repair - plug hole left from chlorinator inlet fitting

    Thanks for the warm welcome! I'll find this place quite useful I'm sure. Wish I knew about it 2 years ago when I first bout this house. I've learned how to maintain the pool on my own with the help of Google and YouTube. The Jandy Aquapure Ei is rated for up to 35,000 gallons. I think my...
