Wow! Thank you! Lots of info to digest..

Currently I use a Jandy PDA Pool Digital Assistant devise to control the pumps.

Here is the pic you requested:

I think that the 09 means that the AquaLink is from 2009.

So, maybe it will control a Jandy variable speed pump or an IntelliFlo VSF.

What flow do you need for circulation and other functions?

Your original motor was a total of 2.6 HP and your new motor is only 2.2 HP, which means that it is too small.

Your original impeller was a 073130.

To use a 2.2 HP motor, you would need to change the impeller to a 073129.

Impeller......Total HP.

073126.........0.95
073127.........1.25
073128.........1.65
073129.........2.20
073130.........2.60
073131.........3.45

I had the motor replaced about a year or so ago but a reputable pool company. Would it be worthwhile reaching out to them regarding the underpowered motor? At the time they were really pushing me towards a variable speed pump, and looking back at the paperwork they provided - based on their estimated cost savings - I would be right at the breakeven point based on electricity saved.. live and learn..

I would since it is a mistake if they did not replace the impeller.

Maybe ask for a discount on a new variable speed pump.

Have them check for compatibility for controlling a variable speed pump.

What a crazy story / battle with the pool service this became.....

Thank you everyone who helped answer my questions and guide me along my way. Turns out the motor/pump was a mismatch and I needed a new motor. I sprung for a variable speed (need to update the sig!!) and life has been... trouble free.

Thank you all!
