My current (well, previous now) pump just let out the magic smoke when it went to turn on this morning, throwing the breaker and reaching skin-scalding temps within a few seconds. So, guess we're in the market for a new pump now. Looking to replace it with a more energy-efficient variable speed, so wanted to know if anyone has any recommendations. Previous owners I guess didn't know that PVC unions existed, so the new pump doesn't have to be a drop-in replacement for the old one since I'll have to cut pipes anyways.
The now deceased pump is a Hayward Super Pump SP2607X10 (1HP) and the filter is a Hayward Pro Series S244T. Don't have any issue going with a higher HP pump as long as it isn't too much for the filter, and we'll likely upgrade to a bigger filter in the next few years too.
