yep 240v, I checked 2&4 yesterday and it was 0 with the pump off, so I didn't mess with it further until I read your post :) also, the electricity savings won't be much since we pay 4.1c/kwh winter and 5.6c/kwh summer off-peak, and unfortunately Clark County Nevada (or whomever is responsible)...

i'm guessing it's 115V, not sure exactly which terminals to test using the multimeter, there are 4 (2 line, 2 load) see picture: elecpanel.jpg - Google Drive also, any thoughts on these cheap pumps: 1.5HP IN GROUND Swimming POOL PUMP MOTOR w/ Strainer, High-Flo, Hi-Rate Inground | eBay 1 HP...

i see generic brand energy efficient 2-speed pumps on amazon for $130 but some of the reviews are kinda scary is there a way to determine voltage without opening things up and using a multi-meter?

2 main drains and 1 skimmer, no special features or heating

pretty much exactly 17 years old, that's when the house was built can anyone recommend a replacement pool pump, i'm looking at all options (VS too) is there anything specific i need to get to make sure it works? current one is 1hp, but max draw seems to be 1.65hp - - - Updated - - - yep,2000

i'm thinking i replace the bearings. not sure how difficult that is, but it sounds easier than replacing a motor would the bearing puller from harbor freight work? it's under $20 and the name is: Pittsburgh 8in Three Jaw Motor Bearing Puller Tool

I'm not sure if it's bearings, as I would expect a much harsher sound. In any event, it does look like replacing the entire pump would be the best choice I'm also leaning towards changing the entire filter too, since the cartridge is well worn and a new one costs over $200 since they are not...

For the past week or so, my pool pump has been making a somewhat loud noise. I cleaned out the pump impeller, didn't really have much stuff in there... I also replaced the capacitor, but that didn't do anything. If you look at the picture of my pool pump, I would say the noise is likely coming...

possibly, i am not the original owner... it looks like it probably was, as there is a footprint in the shallow end nothing to worry about if that's the case right?

Cya 85, FC 10, PH 7.5, TA 100, Calcium Hardness 450 Cleaned the filter and used a robot pool vac the day before

i would like to run my pool filter at two different intervals during the day and it seems as easy as buying another set of trippers and fitting them to the dial now my question is, will this post a safety hazard? i understand that when you operate the pump manually, you need to (or it's...

Current filter is: Aquapro Systems 62557-001 I see there is a replacement: UNICEL P/N: C-9496 Description: 200 sq.ft. Aquapro Apex, 25.19" OAL 11" diameter 25-3/16" long Top: open w/ step 6" id Bottom: open w/ step 6" id Replacement for: click here Pleat Count: 265 Media...

i'm fairly sure mine has the dishwasher and garbage disposal stuff going through it too since all of those are directly above on the top floor... i'll definitely monitor it if i drain some more thanks for the tip on the tools

sorry about the late reply... i left about 2 feet of water in the pool in the shallow end and then refilled. good news is CYA is down to 80 now, and I'm keeping my chlorine levels at 7-12ppm also, apparently i have a drain that's connected to the side of my house (as in, in the lower part of...

doing that now, it's draining at about 1/2" per hour and i'm aiming for 3 feet... so i suppose i will run it for 3 days lol i'm periodically checking that there is prime, is it unwise to let the pump run overnight?

Not yet, I will attempt to drain some of the pool tomorrow, but have some questions I'm not sure what that means "Turn all suction to main drain", I'm a clueless noob lol... EDIT. I'm watching some youtube videos to figure that out So, to test this, I can just connect my garden hose to the...

any specific submersible pump? i see a 3/4 HP stainless steel on harbor freight for $60 and a 1/3 HP thermoplastic on amazon for $53, that can work with a 1-1/4" trash hose (costs as much as the pump) i figure i should buy one since i can reuse it as often as needed

another pic of filter and pump - - - Updated - - - thanks, i think i will just hire someone to do that, since i don't know exactly what tools i need to rent and the submersible pump sounds expensive i'm guessing a pool guy would charge me $100 for a service like that?

pictures of filter attached. i have an aqua pro, apf200pro

Hi, my CYA is about 200 based on the black dot test that I did and I want to drain my pool asap. Yes, I got "pool stored" by LPS and bought a bunch of 3" tabs, but I got them at Sam's club because they were much cheaper That was 3 months ago, and I've been testing levels myself I understand I...
