I keep replacing the 2 speed motor for the water pump on my spa, the new
ones keep over-heating. The original one lasted ten years. If I understood
how the motor works in general, e.g. what changes to give it a higher speed,
I might be able to figure out why I am burning up motors on high suddenly.

Thanks in advance.


This is urtle.

The first mistake do it yourselfers make is to not use a OEM motor. If your
going to try out Universial motors on the spa. You need to look at all motors
and look to see that the R.P. M. , Amp draw, Horse power, Power factor , and
speed verses horse power matches. With all this in place you can use universal
motors and not go back to the original OEM motor.

Now one thing in this hunt for the right motor. You need to keep the original
motor for referrence in the future or at least keep the motor tag to use to know
what the original OEM motor was in the futrure.

Now you ask for a website to match up the motor that you have now. State the
brand and maybe the tag info and i can give you a website to match with.
