I can't find any flow ratings for this pump. How much flow does it produce?
Reply
Hi Allen, We do not have a flow chart for this pump, if you can provide the "feet of head" of your pool we can provide you with an estimated flow rate base off of the Prime Pump Single Speed Flow Chart.

The PureLine Prime Variable Speed Pump is an exact replacement to the Hayward Super Pump Variable Speed Pump, making it quick and cost efficient to replace. You would need to move the pipes to have this pump installed.

That PL2606 would most likely be the one I would recommend, but if you know the distance from your pump to your skimmers I can confirm that the flow rate will be adequate enough with that pump.

I have a pool with about 33000 gallons of water and the average length of the lines is 80+ ft. I currently use a 2 HP Hayward super pump (7 hrs/day) and it works well. Will this unit work on my pool and what are the likely savings.
Reply
Hi Tom, If you currently have a 2 HP Super Pump then this would be a great pump for you. The PureLine Prime Variable Speed will allow you to dial the HP all the way up to 2.7 HP for demanding conditions, but for most of your standard filtration you can dial the HP way down, probably down to 1 HP or so for your pool, and you will save roughly 40% on your operational cost running at 1 HP vs. 2 HP.

i just purchased this pump and am ready to install. I have three questions:
1. My old ss pump was connected directly to a dial timer, can i use this setup or should i bypass the dial timer and power the pump directly and use the built in timer?
2. I also purchased the PureLine PL7704 Salt System (60K), should this be wired to the dial timer or directly to my new PL2606 pump?
3. Can i add the phone control unit to my PL2606 pump as an add-on or is it only included with PL2616?
Thanks!
Reply
Hello Chris - 1) You can bypass the timer or keep the timer and wire the pump to the "load" terminals. 2) Either way will work and get the job done. You can connect the salt system to the timer's "line" terminals and then set the timer to turn the salt system on/off. The other option is to connect the timer to the "AUX" terminal connection on the new pump motor. 3) You can add the phone control unit to the PL2606 as an add-on. The part number is VL100.

How does the PureLine 2.7 compare to the Pentair 011018 3hp and the Hayward SP3206VSP 2.7hp in quality, performance, and reliability? I understand the price differences.
Reply
We spent a lot of time this past season testing and programming all of the variable speed pumps. The top two, in our opinion, was the PureLine Prime VS and the Pentair Intelliflo. These systems were the easiest to program and install. Both units are very durable. The Pentair has been around longer but this is the 3rd year offering the Prime VS and we have seen very few issues. If you plan on installing this pump yourself, you may want to consider the Prime. The Prime has an 18 month warranty for do-it-yourself pool owners. The Intelliflo has a two year warranty but only if a licensed professional performs the installation. Otherwise, it's 60 days.

Can you give the specs. on the motor used on this PureLine Pump (i.e. motor manufacturer, amps, volts, etc..)

This Pump uses a 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor by Century the voltage is 208-230V and the amps range from 10.5 - 0.5. When the pump is running at the lowest speed it only draws 0.5 amps and when it is dialed to the highest speed of 2.7 HP then it will draw 10.5 amps.

Would this pump be a good replacement for my Jandy 2.7 Variable speed pump? See photo attached.
The PureLine Prime VSP would be a great fit you are not using a Jandy AquaLink Automation System If you are tieing your Variable Speed Pump into a Jandy AquaLink Automation system then you may want to stay with the Jandy pump as you will get all of the read out of the Jandy pump on the AquaLink, however if you are not using a Jandy AquaLink automation system then the PL2606 would be fine. You may have a little re-plumbing but nothing major.

Hi. The Prime VS Pumps are very quiet. It is in the same class when it comes to performance as the Pentair Superflo VS Pump except for the operating voltage. The Prime VS Pump 1.65 - PL2605 is suitable for the Pentair SuperFlo VS - 342001 if the customer has 230 volts. The Prime VS Pump 2.7 will outperform the Pentair SuperFlo VS - 342001. Pentair is one of the leading manufactures with a full line of swimming pool and spa products.

This is my current set up. Need to replace the motor and impellers at the very least. Was looking into a variable speed pump to upgrade my system. What would you suggest as the best most cost effective option.
Or would you suggest fixing what I have? If that is the case what all will I need.
Hi, Joshua. Unfortunately, most replacement parts are obsolete for your Purex AH Series Pump so replacing it will be your only option. The pump you have is a high head pump, so you will need a pump like the TriStar VS Pump - SP3202VSP, or the IntelliFlo Variable Speed Pump - 011018. To find out if this pump will meet your pool needs, you will need to calculate the Total Dynamic Head (TDH) of your pool.

Can this pump work with 1-1/2" plumbing, or is it too large? I have a 1HP (1.25 SF) pump with a .75HP (1.5SF) booster pump for a pressure side vacuum. Primary pump is dead, booster runs fine but I am willing to go to a VS for cost savings.

Hi, Brett S. It is preferable that 2" plumbing is used due to the total hp.

Thank you for your quick response. I understand that 2" lines are preferred, but is it required? I have 1.5" lines only.

Hi, Brett. Using 1.5" plumbing is too small for this 2.7 HP VS Pump. The PL2605 - 1.65 VS Pump will be better

what's the difference between the 2606 and the 2626...other than the 2626 says 'good for salt.' Any other difference?
Reply
Hi Bill, The PL2626 uses an ultra heavy duty shaft seal made out of a material called Viton. The shaft seal is the most common part which fails on a pool pump and when the shaft seal fails it allows water to get to your motor and eventually ruins the motor. The Viton shaft seal in the PL2626 is great for more demanding pools like salt pools but it is also a good upgrade for standard non salt pools.

We currently have a Pentiar SF-N1-2a single speed and want to upgrade to a VS pump but maybe use the our Hayward aqua plus PL Plus controller to control the variable speed settings on the pump. Would this pump be a drop in replacement for the Pentiar? Would we have to get any additional equipment to get the Hayward to control the speed of the pump?
Reply
Hi Dave, This would not be a drop in replacement to Pentair pump as the plumbing ports are in a slightly different location so you would have a little bit of re-plumbing but it shouldn't be too bad. All of the programming for the PureLine Prime Variable Speed Pump would be done directly on the onboard pump controller, this is where you would set your schedules, RPMS, etc.. The Hayward Aqua Plus would simply power the pump on and off and then the controller on the pump would take over from there based on your programming settings. You would not be able to adjust the RPM's or program the pump from the Aqua Plus.

Not sure what the head is. Pool is about 40K. I have a Raypak Heater and 60 Sq. ft filter. Skimmers are about 70 ft and 20 ft away. Drain about 40 ft. about 4 different 3 ways on the pool lines. Wondering will this work for me and what is the number that I can run a variable on for energy reduction. I run the current 1.5 hp and a 2.2 SF for about 10 hours to insure there are no issues. Seems to work. Anything less I can get some algae.
Reply
Hi Michael, Thanks for that information as it is helpful. If you currently have a 1.5 HP pump with 2.2 SF then this pump would have almost the exact output as your current pump when it is running at the high speed. This would be a great variable speed pump option for the pool you described and would be our suggestion.
Reply
I like the idea of the variable speed to "tune" the pump to the pools conditions and save energy. However, I also need the ability of remote start/stop, in that the pump also services the Spa, utilizing automatic 3-way valves, thus only a "set" operating time is not feasible for our application.
In addition I'd like to replace a 2nd pump for the water features; slide, waterfall, & fountains.
Is there a remote interface option?

I have a 1.5 HP Hayward Superpump and a control box inside the house and I want to upgrade to a 2.7 variable speed pump and a larger filter, cartridge I think, from my current Tagleus 60D. Would the PureLine 2.7 variable speed pump work for me and is it compatible with my computer control system inside the house
The PL2606 PureLine Prime 2.7 HP Variable Speed would be a great replacement pump for the equipment set up you have described and have included in the photo. If possible if you can plumb as much 2" pipe on the suction side of the pump that will help with flow, also if you can get 12" or more of a straight run of pipe going into the suction side of the pump that will help with flow. Any 90's you can remove from the plumbing will also help, two 45's are better than one 90. We would suggest a cartridge filter like the Hayward C4030 or the Hayward C5030. You would program your variable speed pump directly on the onboard motor controller and your indoor controller would power the pump on and off and then onboard controller settings on the pump would take over from there.

Hello Phong. Attached please find the PureLine Prime Pump - PL26 Series exploded parts diagram.

I purchased the PL2606 in 2018 and this past year the pump has become louder when it is running. I assume it is the pump motor bearings, but the parts list does not show them as a replacement part. Where would I get the bearings?
Or maybe the noise is from the impeller?
I don't see any leaks under the pump or motor.
I want to replace what is making the noise after I close the pool for the winter in the next week or so.

Unfortunately, replacement bearings are not provided by the manufacturer for the Century V-Green 2.7 Models.
