Does the Pentair 1.5 hp motor require additional seals or is it installation ready? Do you offer gasket or o-ring kit for the Pentair Whisperflo system?

Hello Mike - The motor does not come with any pump gaskets or o-rings. The gasket/o-ring kit for standard chlorine pools is part number GOKIT32. The kit for saltwater pools is GOKIT32SALT.

hi can you confirm the bolt pattern. Mine is a six bolt two at the top that screw directly into the strainer side, two in the middle that screw thru to the strainer side but into separate bolts and two at the bottom that attach the same as the top two. Looking at your picture it does not appear it has middle screws?
Thanks

Hello Del - The motor connects to the plate with four bolts. Once the motor is connected to the plate, the plate is connected to the housing with six bolts. The Whisperflo Part Schematic will illustrate this.

I have a 15 year old WisperFlo WFDS-6 which is starting to make a bit of noise. Can I change out to this motor? Will I save on electricity usage by doing so? Will the EE last as long?

Hello Darren - The 071315S motor would be the correct single speed motor replacement. You currently have a dual speed motor. The dual speed motor would last longer and be more energy efficient. The dual speed motor is model B2983.

What would be a great replacement for a Pentair WhisperFlo WFK-6 1.5 HP? After 15 years of service,it has expired.

Carolyn, You can replace it with the same Pentair WhisperFlo WFK-6 1.5 HP 3 Phase Pump, lead time would be 5 business days for shipping. Let me if you would like to place order.
