I used Al's advice & our pump has lived all this extra time - so thank you, but now it is not working at all. Won't even start. Several questions. I am trying to price the Hayward Superpump he mentioned - can you tell me a good place to order this from? Also - my local pump repairman has recommended a Hayward "Max Flo" pump. It's prices are a little lower than the Superpumps that I am seeing, but so far, we can only find 3/4hp in stock. He's willing to install anything that I can find/order. Am I better off with the more expensive 1/2 hp Superpump? I hate trying to price shop for something I don't really understand all that well. Any advice, info is welcome.

Thank you,

Jennifer
