Filter Pump Additional Notes

The pump is working, it appears the pump lid. O-ring is likely due for service ($50). I’m seeing consistent air in the pump basket at least 10%.

Might be wise to just get a whole new lid, Lid o ring and basket (as an extra for backup) $40.

It also appears this pump is leaking from its shaft seal area, and will likely require service ($450-750+) to resolve.

And last this pump is slightly over powered for the application and therefore for safety a lower hp / flow pump may be a wiser choice (.99hp 75 gpm on 2” pipe).

Overall Details

The pool equipment pad is in the sun the majority of the morning still, I do see significant sun wear present on all Plumbing recommend at the least to repaint and re-label ($200+) but likely the valves themselves need service X 2 (suction and return) $400+ including one check valve will need to be replaced ($400)

Also recommend adding more pipe in front of pump as per spec is required - therefore a small replumb ($500). I would also recommend adding a heater bypass ($700).



No, the equipment pad is not UV protected by a UV protectant paint, recommend painting this pad to ensure long PVC piping life as well as certain equipment, The equipment appears to be in direct sunlight a large portion of the day. By simply covering the equipment with a UV mesh shade ($25-55 on Amazon + Installation) you will see approx 3x equipment life and 3x less equipment breakdown. This is recommended here.
Condition
Damaged (Needs Attention)		 Notes

The actuator is older and is likely due for updating soon ($200 A better Hayward Actuator) and the other one is also nearly due ($200) + install $100.

Currently though the valve is likely leaking air and will likely require service due to the amount of air seen inside the pump basket ($200+).

Above ground light fixture non bonded ? Recommend electrician confirms safety.
