How To Change a Hayward Super Pump Motor Bearing and Seal | Hayward Pump Motor is Loud

How To Change a Hayward Super Pump Motor Bearing and Seal
If your hayward super pool pump is making a loud noise, that means that the pump seal has failed and is leaking water back on the front motor bearing. Its best to replace a leaking pump seal as soon as you can, because it will cost more to replace the pool pump bearing.

Thank you. Nicely done video good pacing good lighting clear explanation

I used this video as reference yesterday to change both bearings in my Hayward Super pump. Two bearings cost me $20 from a local pump repair shop and I bought a China Made 3-1/2 gear puller to get the front bearing for another $20. I had a smaller gear puller in my tool box that handled the rear bearing. One caveat for all who attempt this repair at home, be very careful with the long bolt rods that tie the back of the pump housing to the front. I snapped one trying to undo it. It broke at the top of the threads. I ended up brakng the remains off int the threaded bore. I was able to put it back together, but no it's being held with only three rods rather than four. Fortunately for me, the rod the broke was on the bottom side, so I have two rods on top holding the motor housing in tension, which is good. No issues on start up and the pump is super quiet now. The motor is over twenty years old and if I can get a few more years out of it, I'll be happy. Had I had a little more patience, I would have waited 24 hours for penetrating oil to have worked its way into the rod bore and I would have also applied some heat to it to see I could have removed it without breaking it. My gear puller also dulled the threads to the centrifugal switch screw bore. Fortunately, I had a cheap tap and die set to chase the threads and get that switch back in place. If you have some mechanical expertise and the right tools, this is a pretty straight forward repair for the average handyman.

All that happened too you, happens to me. It's just age.

Great reference video. Every few years (think it’s been about 4 now) my pump starts getting louder and the impeller doesn’t turn as freely. I always have to debate buying a new pump vs paying the local pump repair shop at least $100 to do this. I hate to discard the pump for such a simple and cheap part. Going to give this a try. Thanks….

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Sometimes at opening a pump will seize because the seal dried out a bit. I have a short video on that. kzbin.infoVVdGBQRMHVQ

@@VIPPoolsandSpas thanks, will watch

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Pump/Motor bearing replacement is the same on all pool pumps. And. If I have to tell you to turn the pump power off, you shouldn't be even trying to fix the pump.

Been referring to this video all day, super helpful. Thank you!

[@MohammadRezaEsmaeili-q2u]

Thanks for the video. My pump I think is getting overheated after an hour working. I was wondering if it is due to bearing issue? There is no problem with the pressure outlet of the water. Please advise, I need your expertise.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

@@MohammadRezaEsmaeili-q2u is the motor shutting off on its own. What's the problem?

[@MohammadRezaEsmaeili-q2u]

@@VIPPoolsandSpas not always. It happens two times only. After about 4 hours it shut off and it restarted after an hour. There is no weird noises just heat and smell like hot metal. Also the breaker did not trip over.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

@@MohammadRezaEsmaeili-q2u change capacitor for now but it really sounds like the windings are going.

[@MohammadRezaEsmaeili-q2u]

@@VIPPoolsandSpas thanks for responding, but how can I do that? Is it something things that I can do on my own?

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

@@MohammadRezaEsmaeili-q2u you can only change the capacitor. The windings are a whole other thing.

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to have to give it a try.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Its easy. Thanks for watching

[@666dynomax]

I’m going to try this before I ditch the pump. You know they make pliers called snap ring pliers for those clips. Get a good set not a cheap set though

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Cant carry every tool for every job. That ring always breaks off anyway.

[@666dynomax]

@@VIPPoolsandSpas probably right I’m going to go do mine tonight I think. I’m optimistic on this. Pumps making an awe full squealing noise but still pumping fine

[@RadioRich100]

Not to mention a spring hook.

[@jeffroberts760]

I’m curious, how is this holding up? We used to replace bearings for customers with Hayward pumps 20 years ago and now I have my own pump that is getting loud. I think I remember them coming back a year or two later. It’s worth it in any event, with how high pumps have gotten.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

More than 4 years later, when I start replacing again.

[@jeffroberts760]

[@JuanBarrera-wg5nr]

Hello, my pump is hard to start, I have to tap it with a rubber mallet, can that be bearings or the capacitor.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Sounds like the bearings

[@amit.tyagi.officialcareerm3338]

The first 2 little screws for backplate were removed completely to take off plate. Why did you say not to remove them all the way?

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

If your talking about the 2 screws for the back cover, its because they don't come out all the way but most people will force them out. It can mess up the threads.

I have a Hayward 1.5 sp2610x15 that needs a new motor assembly. Can I put a 2hp?

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Do you have 2 inch plumbing? Look for a flow chart on Haywards website. I think they have one there for the pumps.

[@Fool223]

How hpt should the putside housong of this pool pump be

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Not sure. Never really thought of that because it has no bearing. Either it works or it doesn't. Some pumps are inside and some are outside, so that would make a difference.

[@ghlatino]

Good day, will the bearing shown in the video and on the link work with the C48L2N134B1 1.5 HP SUPERPUMP motor? It is attached to the SP2610X15 pump. Thanks in advance.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

All bearings have a number on them. I would look for that number and order it online.

I can’t get the impeller off for the life of me!! I used a wrench to hold the other side while turning the front by hand but it’s so hard and wouldn’t budge. Any tricks plz?

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

I don't know what to tell you. I've never had an impeller stick on me for a hayward super pump. I've had some VERY hard ones to remove. Might need an extra person. One holding the back and one turning the front

You need a special tool called a c clip removal tool.

Sorry you lose me at disconnecting the electric supply. If I have to disassemble the whole motor to make it quieter then I am just buying a new pump.

If you can replace parts and not the whole thing, it's cheaper. Easier then you think.
