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?

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.

My pump starts to make loud noise. Also pressure drops. Which correct motor do I have to buy. It’s WhisperFlo 2HP

Hi, Jacob. The B2859 is the correct replacement motor. You will also need to get the Whisperflo Tune Up Kit - GOKIT32 or GOKIT32SALT.

The Pentair pump WFE-8 / 011515 2HP Can this pump be wired to 110 volts or is it a 230 volt only. The pump does not show any instructions on changing it from a prewired 230 Volt to a 120 volt service. Can you help me, when I ordered the pump I was clear that I did not have 230 service. Thank you

This pump model is made for use only with 220/240 voltage.
