Highlights
Quality
Easy to install, runs quiet, exactly what i ordered
I was hesitant to just buy the motor and not the entire pump system, but after 4 years the motor is still going strong!
I had the first replacement motor install by an hvac expert and friend, and it lasted less than one year, so this is their last shot.
I had an old motor that burn out after just 2 years (rip 2017 to 2019).
Price
I believe this is an excellent value for someone who is willing to do the work on their own!
Can’t beat the $250 saving over the entire assembly.
The prices have almost doubled since then.
It’s have the price to just change motor and you can get a new seal kit for $20.
Shipping
The unit arrived early and after removing old parts from existing and securing to the new motor i was ready to go.
Had to replace our pool pump and order arrived timely and was easy to install.
