hayward tristar

Hello, I upgraded from a single Hayward Super Pump 1.5 HP to a Hayward Tristar VS 900 1.85 HP and I could be happier with it's performance. I have mostly 2" plumbing and set the max speed to about 3270 rpm, which would give me 65 GPM. Today, I tried to perform a Quick Clean, and noticed...

Quick rundown, I had a 10 year old Ecostar 2.65? HP motor that went out. I chose to replace with a W3SP3202VSP TriStar 1.85HP. My pool is 10K gallon SWC, with no spa, and a pump for cleaner robot on Aux 1. I’m running Main Software Revision 4.40 and Display Software Revision 3.13. I’ve tried...

Now as I am learning more, I’ve come to realize that this may not have been the best choice and may...

I just replaced my old single speed pump with a Hayward TriStar 1.85HP VS pump. I have 1.5" plumbing. How can I calculate the flow rate GPM at XX RPM with this pump and this plumbing size? My goal is to use this information to schedule my different speeds and intervals to move the 13k...

My Hayward Ecostar just got a "pump stalled" error. After reading about this on the internet I consider myself lucky that I got 5.5 years out of it with absolutely no problems. It might be because I have a PS3000 Intermatic surge protector installed, and because I rarely ran the pump at speeds...
