    Cool they finally put a VFD variable frequency drive on a pump to speed it up or slow it down .

    I thought the misinformation was the Variable Speed Pump myth that they are more economical than single speed pumps. The fact that all those extra electronic "features " that inevitably go bad. It's a lie to all accept paying 2K on a pump that will last three years max. My Pentair VSP first got water in display. Replaced that a year ago at $400. Now the bearings are bad along w/driver controller board. If its so economical, why use a 3hp pump?

    A bit of misinformation in the video. You claim that when the pump starts making noise or squealing it is the shaft seal that is making the noise.
    I have over 20 years experience working on swimming pools and pool equipment and have repaired/replaced many pool pumps that were squealing and not one of them had the source of the noise being the shaft seal. On 100% of the pumps I have encountered that owner said "squealed" the source of the squealing WAS a result of the pump shaft seal wearing out, however what makes the noise when the shaft seal wears out is not the seal itself, but is rather the front pump motor bearings that the pool water got into after the shaft seal had started leaking. Replacing the shaft seal will stop the water leakage, but it will not stop the noise. The only thing that will stop the noise is replacing either the pump motor or at least the pump motor shaft bearings. And if replacing the motor shaft bearings, it's a case of false economy to try to only replace the front motor shaft bearings but not replacing the rear shaft bearings because the rear bearings sometimes encounter moisture just from the humidity in the air making them typically start to fail within a year or two after the front shaft bearings were replaced so as a customer, if the pump makes noise, your best option if the bearings are able to be replaced is to replace both motor shaft bearings at the same time that the pump shaft seal gets replaced.

      I have a question for you. I have a flo pro k series pump with a 1 hp motor. It’s a W48Y magnetek motor single speed 3450 rpm attached to a jacuzzi cartridge filter on an above ground 16 foot pool. The motor dies after 15 or so years. They discontinued that motor so now I need a new pump. Can I use the same HP pump in any brand to replace it? I’m on a budget so I can’t spend a lot of money. Probably around $250 or so. What would you recommend? I got another magnetek motor but still need a pump as I busted the impeller and can’t get it detached from the motor and it seems to replace all the parts to the flo pro is way to expensive buying each individually. That was according to inyo pools website.

    How exactly did you not understand when he was explaining. "Keep the wet side wet, the dry side dry, got it." Got what? He was explaining the pump design, but you seem to think you need to remember to do something specific. There is nothing worse than trying to get information and finding a knowledgeable person talking to someone that actually doesn't get it.
