It's been raining here off and on so it's difficult to tell. I don't see any viable dripping.Any signs of water under the motor on your pad? A mirror with a flashlight might help your observations.
I bought everything from inyopool.This clear spot looks like a place where water has been dripping.
Around the spot, you can see calcium carbonate from the water when the water evaporates.
I would replace the seal with a good seal.
What seal did you use last time?

What do you mean "upgrade"?Thanks. I'm going to upgrade impeller while I'm at it.
The seal is the critical item.Any suggestions on gaskets to replace with or are they pretty much the same.
If your motor horsepower is not rated the same or higher than the impeller horsepower, your flow rate will increase right up until the motor burns out. You can't just put a larger impeller on any motor.I'm going to SPX2610C to increase flow rate.
1.65hpWhat is the total hp of the motor?
I would not increase the impeller.
What's wrong with the flow?
Ok, the person who recommended the impeller knows what they're doing.It was suggested that I upgrade it when I installed.
