My 2hp Stealth pump pump has been loud for the 3rd year; the motor gets hot and this year starting from the day I opened the pool the sound is as if it slows down and speeds up. I think it is the motor. I am thinking of replacing it, and the pool companies charge a lot for it. ($900 to $1200 motor; upward of $2300 for the whole thing).
The motor has the label that says "MODEL UST1202". I see them being sold on Amazon for $240 or so. But there are several companies who sell them, and I am not sure they all have the same flange for the same pump. And their shafts'ends look different.
Does anyone have experience with these? Which one is for Jandy Stealth? Does the motor modification code describe it, if it is the same?I have K48M2N110C2, the first one on Amazon where it is readable says the same. And both say A.O. Smith.
How involved is the replacement? (mechanically)
Should I get gaskets along with the motor?
PS. Inyopools.com seems to sell what they call as replacement motors for JHPU pump 2hp, but they look different from mine and have different name, like 56j and not UST1202.
