Why should I purchase the heavy duty seal?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/17/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

The heavy duty shaft seal features carbon graphite, stainless steel, and Viton rubber. The properties of this seal contribute to the resistance of chemical corrosion. This is the best choice for salt chlorine generators or ozonators.

Although my pump/motor is 12 years old, it seems that the shaft seal is leaking. I could barely make out the name of pump, but it looks like it spells Whisper. The P/N 01175 PMP WF - 30 230V 21/2 HP Can you match this up with needed seals? Thanks

Hi. Would it be better to use the heavy duty seal instead of standard one in non-salty water pump?
 Reply

A  Answered on 3/10/2020 by InyoPools Product Specialist Hector F.

Yes, if your swimming pool still uses chlorine for sanitation then it still would be worth it because there is still sodium in liquid chlorine and even chlorine tablets can create corrosion.
