What is Service Factor?
Reply
Service Factor(SF) is a multiplier that when multiplied by the horsepower of the motor indicates the total permissible horsepower loading that may be carried when the motor is operating at rated voltage and frequency. The most important thing to remember when replacing a motor is that the replacement motor's horsepower times its service factor must be equal to or greater than the original motor's horsepower times its service factor. The Service Factor rating can be found on the motor label. See Step 4 of our How to Read a Pool Motor Label guide.

I'm trying to replace the motor on my pool pump but all these numbers and abbreviations on the motor label are really confusing me. What do they mean?

Is this the correct replacement motor for a 2008 pentair PMP WFDS-6 230v 1 1/2HP, p/n 011522?

Hi David, This B2983 motor is the correct replacement motor for the WFDS-6 pump. I would also recommend that the get the Pentair/Purex Whisperflo Tune Up Kit p/n GOKIT32 or GOKIT32SALT.

How much is actually saved in electrical costs going from a 2-speed to a variable speed. Trying to determine the payback equation.

Hi. They're several calculation tools that you can use depending on the manufacturer. If you would like to just change the motor with the Century V-Green VS Motor, you can use the V-Green Calculator.

My pool's pump was dying. It had been running 24/7 for seven years. My first pump lasted seven years so I knew it was probable needing replacement. I ordered a new one (Century (A.O. Smith) 1.5 HP Full Rate Motor) with the additional Mechanical Shaft Seal - R0479400. I hired a certified tech to do the install. Upon inspection of the pump and seal, he found the seal to be broken. Since this was a critical part, I DID NOT want to re-use my old one. Rather than stop the install, the technician rummaged around in his work van and actually found one--new and unopened. HALLELUJAH!! So basically, I paid for the extra piece with my pump purchase and ended up being saved by the install tech.

My motor was making a weird sound as a result of a damaged capacitor/housing and I preferred to replace it completely to be safe...
1) Shutoff all power breakers to pool pump
2) Remove motor cap in back of motor
3) Disconnect all wires including ground
4) Unscrew wire protector from motor
5) Remove all (6) bolts to remove motor from pump housing
6) Remove all (4) bolts from motor to switch pump housing plate to new motor.
7) Replace bearings and O-ring provided on new motor
8) Reinstall new motor to existing pump in reverse order

After reaching out to INYO Pool customer service to ensure that I knew which model to purchase and consulting the INYO Pool website to download the appropriate wiring diagram, I took the plunge and purchase a replacement motor with confidence that I could do the work myself. Armed with a Phillips screwdriver, a pair of wire cutters/strippers and a multimeter to confirm the power was shutoff (safety first), I was able to swap out my old, noisy motor with an OEM replacement in under two hours time. Everything fit perfectly and the new motor sounds great... and I did it all myself for less than half of what the pros quoted me! Thank you INYO Pool Products!
