The pump motor on our hottub is on it’s way out. It sounds like a grinder instead of a nice hum like you’d expect. The one saving grace is, the pump & motor are super easy to get to.

The tub is 15 years old or so and the motor’s original, so it’s probably best to replace both pump & motor, and so far I haven’t been able to find a bearing kit for it.

Is anyone out there a spa reseller who could get the pump/motor for me? Even just the motor would be a good start, but I’d imagine the seals and whatever in the pump are showing their age, so I think I’d rather replace them both & be done with it.

This is the pump motor data plate:

I used SpaGuts.com at TinCanBandits recommendation.

Replaced my entire heater/pump assembly ready to install for 1/2 of any local store.

Their website is easy to use.

Thanks Don, I'll check then out.

The Spa Depot is local to us here in Washington. Giant Warehouse near the Olympia Airport. They have everything

Thanks, I'll check them out. No joy at Spa Guts.

EDIT:

Spa Depot had a great deal going on a better than new replacement. It's a larger frame (so it runs cooler and there's plenty of room for it), slightly higher amp capacity (11.5 for dying pump vs 12 for new), and 1-1/2 more horsepower, so the jets should be back to their old ways. My arthritic back can't wait.

$300 & tax, so just shy of $342 shipped free to my door. Should be here in a couple of days, and can maybe install it this weekend.

Thanks!
