Re: Replacing a motor on a pump, and getting the correct size for your pool?
I installed a vacuum gauge on the basket side today, and on its own, it wasn't able to get much more than 1 mm Hg. Later in the day, I stuck a drain king into the skimmer and had it blasting water towards the pump, and only then did it shoot up to 20+ mm Hg. The motor still kept shutting itself off before it was able to get full prime though.
26,000 gal IG vinyl liner pool (20'x40'), Waterway SMF-110 wet end w/ Century SQS-1072R motor, Pac-Fab Triton TR60 sand filter, K-2006A. Manually added chems: 12.5% NaClO liquid, granular CYA, baking soda, 31% muriatic acid.
