Its heavy-duty, high-performance motor and airflow ventilation provide quieter, cooler, more efficient operation for virtually any in-ground pool or spa, while its exclusive service-ease design offers quick 4-bolt access to all internal components. With these and other advanced features—including an extra-large debris basket, exclusive swing-away hand knobs, a Noryl impeller and a see-through strainer cover—it’s easy to see why Super Pump is the best-selling medium-head pool pump in the world.

I installed the pump without any issue. At the suction of the pump, I have installed a short piece of clear pipe. And I can see if there are any air bubbles at the intake. It takes about one minute for the pump to prime, and it then pumps a large amount of water. When I look at the transparent lid, there is a significant air pocket. When I look at the swimming pool, there are a lot of air bubbles coming out of the discharge pipe. So obviously, there is an air leak from somewhere. When I look at the transparent suction pipe, I don't see any air bubbles. There could be a small air leak in the suction pipe, but if it were a large amount, I would see air bubbles in the transparent section of the suction pipe. So, the air leak must be coming from the pump itself. At first, I thought that the gasket was missing, and that I somehow threw it out in the packaging. So, I ordered another gasket. When I received it, I discovered that the gasket was actually in place. I suspected that the leakage was at the cover of the strainer.In order to find the location of the air leak, I ran the pump to remove as much air as possible in the filter. Then I turned the pump off and closed the suction valves very quickly. This meant that the pump was filled with water (except for a small bubble at the top of the strainer basket) and was under the pressure of about 2 feet of static head (about 1 psi). Then I looked at where water was dripping out.There was no leak at the gasket to the strainer cover, so the gasket was good (this was a pleasant surprise since I thought that this was the problem). There was a leak at the drain plug. I determined that it had not been tightened at the factory. So, I removed the plug, applied Teflon tape, and tightened it.There was another leak at the threaded pipe at the inlet (suction). When I installed the pipe, I used Teflon tape as directed in the instructions. However, it still leaked, and Teflon tape was not good enough. I tried to seal the leak with caulking. However, this did not work. So, I removed the threaded pipe, applied Rectorseal Pipe thread Sealant, and reinstalled the pipe. This sealant has Teflon fibers imbedded in it and is not the same as regular pipe dope.After this was done, I re-tested the pump - there were no leaks and the pump worked perfectly.Comment: If you have a problem with leakage and the Teflon tape does not work, use Rectorseal.Comment: the pump instructions should explain how to find leaks in the system. This entire process took me several weeks and caused great frustration.

Had to replace my 6 yr old Jandy. Yes I know variable speed pumps are en vogue, but they’re also twice the price. I really didn’t need or want a variable speed unit. Fairly easy drop in replacement- minimal PVC piping work (which is easy). Motor/pump unit is robust and quiet. No frills- just a reliable workhorse. Unless you’re the type that needs the latest/greatest/most complicated this is an easy DIY job.

Only had running a few weeks. Works great, quiet, simple install. Will be curious to see long term use. Happy with quality of components. If I had a negative it would be the terminals for wiring the AC power. I like to use hefty wire 10gauge and it was doable, but not easy. Probably intended for 12/14gauge.

This is the thirds pool pump I was forced to order until one worked. Don't waste your time with cheap pumps made some of which don't even have a brand name. Remember the old British proverb: We are not rich enough to buy cheap stuff.

Pump still works. The starter capacitor was dented and the housing was broken at the electrical outlet.

My first Hayward Pool pump lasted for more then 40 years quality and durability is remarkableMost likely it would still be running had I not forgotten to clean the basket. Because of that I burned out the motor .

This was a replacement pump for the one that with the pool when we bought the house 20 years ago. This is pretty much the same pump we were using, and I only replaced it because it seemed like the old one was coming to an end. This pump is much quieter than the old one which was a big surprise. There were some issues with the size of the adaptors for the pipes, but as a long-time pool owner that is expected and was minor to overcome. My only issue was the wiring. I did not see anything about the pump not coming with an electrical cord and having to learn that I needed an electrician to hook it up. I would recommend highlighting that in the description.

The pump did not work well at all. I had my pool guys here 4 different times trying to get it to work and them thinking it was other issues. This BRAND NEW pump would start and then trip the breaker over and over. After a final try, they installed one of their own pumps to get me through the holiday weekend and my pool is finally running off of an old pump of my pool guy. I thought Hayward was a good brand, that’s why I spent the extra money to get this pump. Evidently, they don’t make things like they used to. My pool guy was even shocked, as he used to recommend Hayward. Save yourself the trouble and don’t get it.

We received the pump quickly but the wire to connect it was cut so short that we had to open the unit up and solder new wires onto the small stubs in order to connect it.
