I bought and old house that came with a pool. I am learning as i go.
I started the pump up and the pump was leaking at the gasket between the motor and housing. The pump housing has nothing to identify it so how do I get parts for it?
I have included a pic. You can see the gap in the housing; its large. the pump housing is cracked at the mounting bolts but the pump runs fine.
What are my options here:
-replace the gaskets
-can i bolt a new housing on the old motor if i can't get a gasket kit?
-should i just spend the money and buy a new motor and housing?
-If i get a new pump...how do i determine the proper flow rate?
-any recommendations on what pumps i should buy?
