I recently posted a question on what was the best option for either replacing a Sta-Rite PLBC-178L Booster Pump (circa 1999) or motor.
After some thought, I ended up replacing the pump with a Polaris PB4-60 Booster Pump ( to complement my existing Polaris 380 cleaner )
The pool is at a second home which I visit once a week, the last two weeks I found the pool green.
Wasn't sure what was happening, until I realized that the motor is apparently shutting down on thermal overload.
The daily ambient temperature has been running around 102 - 106 degrees, and the equipment is in full sun. and the pump was scheduled to run from 11AM until 6PM
I saw it shut down on three different occasions.
Is this something the you might expect to see, is this acceptable.
This is a new install (within last month, and is a new pump.)
