What is Service Factor?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/11/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Service Factor(SF) is a multiplier that when multiplied by the horsepower of the motor indicates the total permissible horsepower loading that may be carried when the motor is operating at rated voltage and frequency. The most important thing to remember when replacing a motor is that the replacement motor's horsepower times its service factor must be equal to or greater than the original motor's horsepower times its service factor. The Service Factor rating can be found on the motor label. See Step 4 of our How to Read a Pool Motor Label guide.

Why do I need to purchase a new shaft seal?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/12/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

We strongly recommend replacing the shaft seal. The purpose of a shaft seal is to prevent water from running down the shaft of the motor and into the motor housing. Water will damage the bearings and cause the motor to fail. A new shaft seal should be installed whenever a motor is replaced. The motor manufacturer can deny the warranty if the motor fails to due to water damage from a faulty shaft seal. To find your shaft seal you will need to visit our Pool Pump Parts Page or the Spa Pump Parts Page and select your make and model.

Why should I purchase a Tune Up Kit?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/12/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

A Tune Up Kit includes all of the essential replacement seals and gaskets for the pump. The seals and gaskets should be replaced when installing a new motor on your pump. New seals will prevent the pump from leaking water or losing the prime. A Tune Up Kit will protect your motor and ensure that the pump is working efficiently.

Replacing a pool pump motor is not as difficult as it seems. You can try looking here. If you need help figuring out what the information on your label means. If you are still having difficulty figuring it out you can call us at our toll free number or you can send us a photo of your motor label here.

I just finished replacing the shaft seal on my booster pump. As soon as I turned the pump on water was leaking from the shaft seal. Is it defective or am I doing something wrong?
 Reply

A  Answered on 2/16/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Depending on the model, the installation of a booster pump shaft seal can be slightly different than a pool pump shaft seal. Some booster pump and pool pump shaft seals require that a silicone sealant be used on the outer areas of the metal seat of the shaft seal. The seal will need to be lightly hammered into the body of the pump. You can use a 1 inch PVC coupling or a piece of 1 1/4 inch PVC pipe and a rubber mallet. This procedure will apply to any pool pump or booster pump using a >PS-1000 style shaft seal.

Hello Glenn-When upgrading the motor size you have to take a couple things into consideration. The first would be whether or not your filter can handle the additional flow rate by the higher HP. The second being that you will need to change the impeller and possibly diffuser on the pump. The only advantage to going to a higher HP would be to increase the waterflow. But keep in mind it will use more energy as well.

You would need to replace it with the UST1102. You should also replace the seals and gaskets. In order to cross-reference the correct seals you would need to have the model name or number of the front pump housing that the motor is bolted to.

Yes you are correct this is the proper replacement motor for your 7-165199-05 motor. We would need to know the make and model of your pump to determine your seal kit.

Hi David, Yes this motor is the correct replacement motor for the Magnetek / Century Centurion 10-177450-03 This motor does not come with the impeller however the impeller normally does not need to be replaced unless the impeller is broken. We suggest replacing your shaft seal. To suggest the proper shaft seal or impeller we would need to know the make and model of your pump common models are the Pentair Whisperflo, Pentair SuperFlo, Jandy Stealth, etc.. Could you reply back with the model of your pump or you can send us some photos. To send photos simply click on the reply link below and upload your photos.

Ralph, We would suggest the USQ1102 1 HP Replacement Motor over this B2841V1 Motor. When replacing your motor we would suggest a seal kit. To determine the proper seal kit we will need to know your pump make and model information, common pump names would be Pentair Whisperflo, Sta-Rite Dura Glas, Pentair Challenger, Jandy Stealth, etc.. To supply this information click the reply link below, also if you could send a few photos those are always helpful as well. If you send photos then take a close up shot of the motor label as well as a wide shot of the complete pump to include the pipes going in and out of the pump.

Looks like the serial number for this motor cross references with my part # 7 - 193993 - 05 (label attached). I noticed in the text that California compliance suggests a different model from a choice of two. Can you confirm this or will this "Century 1.0 HP Square Flange 56Y Full Rate EE Motor - B2841V1" be the appropriate replacement for me? Thanks much.

Hi, yes this is the two motor options listed are correct replacements for your motor part number 193993 in the state of California. When replacing a pool motor we do suggest a Seal Kit. Could you send us a few photos of your pump so we can suggest the proper seal kit? If so then please take a wide shot of the complete pump to include the pipes going in and out of the pump. To supply photos simply click the reply link below and upload your photos or quickest using our live online chat feature. Once we get those photos we can make the proper recommendation for your seal kit.

    Thanks Hector, photos are attached. The manual is for Jandy Stealth Series Pumps but it covers two models: SHPF and SHPM. I do not know which I have. Perhaps the photos will help. The seal kit sounds like a important option. Let me know if you need any more information. Thanks much.

      Hi Kenneth, just to confirm, the two motor models listed under the B841 are correct options for the state of California, and also you have a Jandy Stealth SHPF series pool pump. This series doesn't actually have a seal kit however the shaft seal is listed on key number 5 being an old-style shaft seal. You will also want to replace key numbers 13 and 15 on the parts diagram here

Hello. Is this the correct pump to replace my existing pump (see attached). Could you also please identify which "tune-up" kit I should use when replaced (seals etc). What is your return policy? Don't plan to return just worried if I purchase the wrong pump, I'll be stuck with it.. Thanks

Dear, Can I replace/upgrade my broken motor (see photo) with this one? My current set up is 1.5 inch Pipe ID, with cartridge filter can stand 120 GPM flow rate. TIA. Best, Kevin

A  Answered on 11/8/2022 by InyoPools Product Specialist Hector F.

Hello Kevin, the correct direct replacement motor used on your pump is the motor model B853. If you're wanting to increase the strength of your pump the wisest approach is to use a variable speed pump as the original licensed pool contractor specked out your specific build for a single speed pump. In your case the variable speed motor replacement is the ECM16SQU. We also recommend replacing the seals and gaskets when replacing a pool pump motor. Here is our "Finding the Tune-Up Kit for Your Pool Pump" guide that should assist in locating that.
