Pump motor gone out

[coachhim]

When the pump motor goes out it's the entire pump needs to be replaced? Or just that motor part

Many times you can just replace the motor, as long as there is no obvious damage to the wet end (basket) side of the pump assembly. When shopping for a new motor and replacing with something comparable, make sure to ask about the applicable "go-kit" that goes with it. The go-kit will have all the respective seals and such that should replaced at the same time. Places like Inyopools and others are very good with helping you match-up a replacement and the accessories.

Or, if you are happy with it you can take it to a motor repair shop. many will check it out and even repair while you wait if it is simple.

Look for a place like this: https://allstateelectricmotors.net/

I have no connection wit them, just used them as an example

Google "electric motor repair Oklahoma City, OK" and you will see more

Well I dont know if that is the model pump I have or not. Where is the pool pump model #?

I think the impeller is shot. I can feel it moving around. So I'm guessing to replace all that **** in there?

You have a Hayward Super II pump. If you want to repair the pump, I suggest the following:

Motor 1.0 hp total 56j motor.
Impeller SPX3007C.
Impeller ring SPX3005R.
Gasket SPX3000T.
Seal SPX1600Z2 or U.S seal PS-3868.
Diffuser gasket SPX1600R.

Motor total hp is label hp x service factor (S.F).

Dang how did you figure that out??
Is there a type of kit to buy all these parts? Or I have to get them separate?

You can get everything from any vendor, like Amazon, Inyo pools etc.

Thank you!!

Note that the impeller that I suggest might be 1 size smaller than what you have. In my opinion, it's a better fit for your pool.

The motor is less hp, so you will need the new impeller to match.

What is the part number for the diffuser? Does the diffuser have to be replaced too??

SPX3000BN. However, you usually don't need to replace it.

Ok that was my next question. I wonder if that needs to be replaced. What determines if that needs to be replaced.

Also why do you think i need the smaller impeller? Since i have the 1 hp motor? The impeller you sent me is for 3/4 hp motor

 

[JamesW]

What is the motor doing or not doing?

Pump hp is somewhat complicated. There's rated hp and total hp. The total hp is the rated hp x the service factor.

A 3/4 hp pump might be a 3/4 total hp or a 1.0 hp total pump depending on how the manufacturer labels it.

The impeller is for a 1.0 hp total pump and requires a 1.0 hp total motor.

Very loud. Now i can reach my hand inside the motor and feel that the impeller is very loose. Motor turns on but no pressure. When i turn it off sounds like an engine idling down

Here is my motor. Should i use the 3/4 hp impeller or 1hp?
