Sundance Hamilton leaking problems

<< < (2/3) > >>

I don't do service, just sales and I am capable of changing a wet end.  I'm sure there are youtube videos so you can visually see what you are doing.  There will be a sizable cost difference between a wetend and a complete pump.  If I were you, the only way I'm replacing the entire pump is if I remove the wetend and the motor shaft is too far corroded.  If that was the case, then a complete pump.

Ndamico:
thanks.  now i have to see if i can find a part # for the wet end.

Jacuzzi Jim:
Bite the bullet and get the whole thing. Depending on how long it's been leaking there is a good chance the shaft is rusted and or pitted. So you might not get a good seal with the new wet end.  Mot to mention it's a 10+ year old spa & pump.

Ndamico:
Hi,

here is a pic of the tag on the motor.  i'm trying to verify its as old as the tub but don't see a date on it.  can anyone assist?  i'm ok with replacing the whole thing if that's the right call. anyone have a recommended source?   what about brand?  i know emerson as i use their UPS units at work.

Jacuzzi Jim:
   Probably original.   This one will work, key is, find the cheapest price with free shipping.  Which these guys do, honestly a pretty good price.    Just google that part number shown in the link..    If it were me, I would change the whole thing.  Wet end is probably going to cost at least 100 just guessing, plus the PIA to change it.   You might need that base though, but I have installed them before with out it and made it work.  Just strap the new one down with caddy/ hanging strap or something similar.   Should work fine..
