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.

Hi Matt, A large selection of Waterway pumps use a PSR1000 Seal. Without knowing the model of the wet end I can't confirm which seals you need. If you can send photos of the wet end I can confirm.

I have a Century Pool & Spa Motor (AO Smith B625) pump for my Polaris pool vacuum. The pump is leaking so I assume its the pump shaft seal.

I have a Polaris PB4 Booster Pump made in 2002 which worked fine up till yesterday. Now when I try to turn it on it does not rotate and simply emits a hum, suggesting power is applied but not turning on the motor. There is no evidence of leaks beneath the motor. Is it possible the shaft seal has seized and that is preventing rotation?
Reply
Hi, Bob. The shaft seal is not the issue, the capacitor or seized bearings could be the issue.

I have a Waterway above ground pool pump that is leaking water. Is this the correct shaft seal for a Waterway PS-10-2N11CB pump? Also, what o-rings will need to be replaced? Thank you.
What pump seal do I need? I just replaced it with PS-3865R but it's leaking at the shaft where it connects to the impeller. I don't think the pump seal is the right hight, maybe should be taller. I replaced the old motor with the new one pictured. Did I get the correct motor? Pump seal?
Can you tell me the correct shaft seal to get?

Hey Patrick thanks for the quick reply. New photos attached. Its leaking fairly steady, should I shut off the pump until I get seal replaced?
Kelly, Thank you very much those photos were really helpful. You will need this Whisperflo Shaft Seal Kit
Reply
Thanks again Patrick I ordered the part. Should I be limiting the pool pump run time on the meantime, or not running it at all?
Reply
Hi Kelly, Thanks for the order! The main risk you run is the leaking corroding the motor and causing it to seize. I think if you ran it a 2-3 hours a day while you wait for your seal kit then you should be fine.

I see this seal kit is compatible with SP-10-1N11MB, but is it also compatible with Waterway's waterway sd-10-1n11mb? Not sure what the difference would be between the SP and SD motors.

Hi, Sergei. This PS-1000 - Pump Shaft Seal 5/8" is compatible with both model pumps. The difference between "SP" and "SD" is that SP is for Spa Pump and SD is for Side Discharge.
