Great video. My pump wouldn't prime up & had water all over my pad Saturday morning. I already had this seal kit on hand "just in case," and then I watched your video as a reminder of what to do. 90 minutes start to finish and I was back up and running. Could probably do in 30-45 min if I ever have to do it again. Thanks!!

Helpful video, thank you 👍

I had this motor at my old property. Wish I saw this video when I was there lol Nice job!

[@Kpisback]

Great video with easy to follow instructions and explanations. Thank you and keep up the great work.

[@Mark-OutWest]

THIS is the video I needed. Outstanding amount of detail. THANK YOU!

[@ThePchatty16]

Great video! Helped me out replacing my motor, much appreciated!

[@tonysgarlatti36]

Why did you put it back together without replacing the 3/32 allen screw missing from the defuser?

[@keithchafin26]

I just replaced a impeller it separated completely in half lol, replaced all the seals while I was in it during that time. Great video!!

[@donnierobertson3088]

Good

[@Heavy_metal_rulez]

Great job as always Rich. I replaced one of these pentair motors with a century direct replacement motor. It was a little cheaper and its still going to this day

[@davidg8032]

Good video. Thanks for taking the time!

Hey, I see you didn't use a torque wrench for the pump housing bolts, other video I've seen was using a torque rachet. Can regular rachet be used instead

[@2Timothy3END]

Can you give me the Amazon link to the 3HP motor you installed (you said old one burnt up). Thanks

[@frankriano8309]

Should I add silicone adhesive when placing the new seal on the seal plate? Is it adhesive or lubricant? If adhesive what kind do you use? Please advice, Thanks

[@hous3mode]

how much would you say you saved by doing this yourself? this is inspiring me to take on my pool water heater that went out with a bad lighting storm.

[@johnkelly2748]

Helpful video, however he repeated refers to the "volute" as the "impeller". The impeller is held on by the left-hand threaded bolt. The volute is the part held on by the alan screw. The impeller spins inside the volute

[@9-5channel]

What if it keeps leaking after you do all that

[@raulrasero6773]

Were I can get all pump &motor gaskets

[@turtlejr33]

This must have been his first time doing this kind of job. No reason to remove motor bolt until you remove defuser and impeller.

[@bradleyjohnson452]

You forgot to show the silicone on the seal and wait 24hours
