Says I bought this in February. It's December. It's pumping at half capacity with no obstructions. Not enough water to activate the heater. Did run 24/7 for 11 months. Disappointing? Yes. Unexpected. No.
No PVC in the USA will fit into these fittings. You will need rubber boots to connect.
The pump works great and is fairly quiet, however, you will not be able to connect any pvc directly to the fitting provided. You will instead need to use a rubber sleeve or boot to connect with pipe clamps.
I bought this as a pump for my 18 foot above ground pool. I used all last summer and now this summer 2021 -2022 and it still works great! No issues running my salt water pool.
Pump works great. Only downside is the fittings. They are a little bigger than 1 1/2”. All I did was heat up the 1 1/2” pipe and got a socket to wedge inside to expand it to the size I needed and glued it up after it was all cooled down and it’s been working fine.
We bought a half hp for our 15 ft round blow up ring pool. It's super quiet and we can vacuum the pool well but could easily use a 3/4 hp or a 1 hp. Was delivered in 4 days. We highly recommend
460 W not 370 W - almost 100 W more than it should take
This pump is super silent! Almost everything is great … but I was surprised that it almost sucks 100 W more than it should … very strange things are happening here on Amazon.
