3 HP Pump Replacement - HELP!

[db131]

Hello all, I have a IntelliFlo VS-3050 pump with a screaming motor at the end of last season. I’d like to replace it.

Could you please help me with the equivalent 3hp variable speed pump that I should purchase?
The pump runs in ground pool with a connected spa hot tub.
The IntelliFlo VS-3050 pump worked great and it was an old hand me down. I’m ready to replace.
I appreciate all of your help. Looking to purchase this weekend (online I figure).

Thanks,
Dave

The 3050 is a very old pump, circa 2009.

The input and output dimensions are not readily available (at least for the plumbing).

I would replace with Intelliflo3 3hp, which may require some re-plumbing:

IntelliFlo3® Variable Speed & Flow Pool Pump

The award-winning, energy-efficient IntelliFlo3 VSF Pool Pump has a quiet design with sensorless flow control, app connectivity, and automation capability.

That pump is still available for a plug and play option. Although the SVRS option makes it less than desirable. I agree with @PoolStored on replacing with an intelliflo3.

I "third" that recommendation. I have now had the Intelliflo 3HP VSF for 3 years and wish I had done it sooner. When you DIY, put the savings into top-notch equipment and you will never regret it.
