Extremely helpful video. I replaced shaft seal on a pump last year after checking out this video and just replaced another today. Great job gentlemen!

Hi Inyo Pools,

Very informative video ! Appreciate the time and effort on sharing this !

I had a quick question, i've got a Hayward SP3315B pool pump model but i can't find any information on Hayward site and was wondering what type of tune up kit should i buy for that pump ?

TIA !

Extremely helpful and informative. I was stuck with a shaft seal installation but your video explained what I needed to know. My pump is not leaking anymore. Thanks a million!

Very helpful and well-done video. Appreciated the acknowledgement of the difference in your working conditions to that of the typical viewer! Tip to others: a little water-based lubricant (I used U.S. Sealube) worked like a charm to get that ceramic/rubber seal part into place.

NICE JOB GUYS. new pool owner and we had someone close our pool this past fall. the pool motor was never unplugged and i think it was running two two days 8 hours per day with no water. So i was going to buy another just incase this one is damaged but a buddy said don't worry if anything you'll just have to replace the pump motor shaft seal. I didn't know what that would entail but now i feel pretty good about fixing it. thanks guys

Excellent video! Question. I have a sand filter sf60110-2 3000 gps. I believe the shaft seal is broken. Can you tell me what and where I can get it? Thank you!

I just bought a new tune up kit with new housing gasket and seal. I’m replacing my Hayward Super Pump motor. Do I need to apply silicone to the housing gasket? If so, can you link me to a good kind to get? I mean do you really need to lubricate a brand new housing gasket?
