Hi I am looking to replace my inground pool pump with a Pentair Superflow Single Spd Motor - Pretty Sure i need a 1 Hp Model (vs. 3/4 hp) but wanted to get your thoughts - 24000 Gal Pool; 1.5" PVC Piping; Need about 51 GPM to tunrover in 8 hrs
From what I read maximum from 1.5" pvc is about 53 GPM
Estimated Total Dynamic Head - 50 Feet
I want to make sure I have enough hp but not too much to risk cavitation etc...so can you let me know your thoughts?

Hello Ron - Based on all of your variables, we would recommend the 1HP Pentair SuperFlo.

I have a Pentair pump part # 340038 with a date of 2008, should a new Pentair hook up to existing plumbing? My existing pump just last night got really noisy, almost a whining sound. Is this an indication pump is going out?

Dan, The pump should line up the same way as your existing Pentair SuperFlo. It sounds like the motor is failing/has failed. You can also consider replacing the motor and seals.

I have a Pentair 340038. Motor sounds bad. What would you recommend to replace motor and other seals needed? 110v. 2 speed with timer would be great.

Hello Fred - The correct 2-speed replacement is model B2981T. This is a 3/4HP full rated motor but the total HP is the same as your current motor (1.25). The shaft seal, housing o-ring, and diffuser o-ring should be replaced as well.

Hi Natalie, I would suggest a Super Flo Shaft Seal, Super Flo Body O-Ring and a Super Flo Diffuser Seal. The changing of these 3 items should stop your leak.

(5 out of 5 stars) SuperFlo 1hp Single Speed Pump
Reviewed By: Jeffrey B. from Mobile, AL ()
I replaced a 1 hp pump that was at least 15 years old. This new pump is much quieter, and moves more water. Easy to install and the plumbing matched that of the old pump. InyoPools shipped the item incredibly fast. I'm impressed with their prices and fast shipment. Thank you.

(5 out of 5 stars) Love this pump - love this website!
Reviewed By: HappyMama from Arcadia, FL ()
Pros: VERY quiet, nice design, easy installation
Cons: None for us
We just moved into a house with a pool and had no prior knowledge of pool care. We did know that the pump sitting there should not make that much noise! My husband searched the internet and found the inyopools website - what a blessing! The website is great for any information you need and they offer a very easy to use chat option where you can chat with a real person. We've learned so much just from inyopools.com. What a valuable resource! The pump is wonderful! It's quiet (we almost weren't sure it was running when we first hooked it up!), has great pressure and looks sleek and well built. The low price was just a bonus! My husband found wiring diagrams and everything he needed to make the transition smooth and seamless. Thanks for all your help and a great product!

(5 out of 5 stars) Drop in replacement for my 2HP WhisperFlo
Reviewed By: TheHecklerJ from Florida ()
Pros: Includes everything needed for install.
Cons: Could still be quieter.
Excellent pump, much quieter and more efficient than the WhisperFlo 2HP that it replaced. Had the pool builder utilized the union fittings on my original pump, this would have been the easiest thing to install in a long time. I had to simply add 2 couplings into my installation and elevate this pump with a couple of bricks, powered it up and was surprised by how quiet and quickly it primed.
