Blue Wave NE6183 Tidal Wave 2-Speed Replacement Pump for Above Ground Pool, 1.5 HP,Black

I installed it yesterday, minimal effort outside of the fact I previously hard-lined my plumbing so I had to cut, fit, glue new PVC. From appearance alone it looks like really solid quality construction. Love the two speeds, not sure how my energy Savings will be, but I’ll monitor that. My biggest number one reason I’m loving this pump/motor is that my previous motor bearings we going out and they were singing so bad I could about hear it in the house. This motor is more quiet than my previous motor when new. I have it on full speed now and can’t hear it unless I’m standing right next to it. It is super quiet. One bit of advice, if you hard lined your plumbing, you’ll need to extend the line from the filter valve, as the outlet going from the pump to filter is not center line on top of pump like other pumps.

This pump was a no brainer for the price. I needed a pump fast and the fit the bill perfectly. We will see how it work for the next season.

This 2 speed pump is very quiet and of good quality. It was easy to install as a replacement, was at an extremely competitive price delivered quickly ahead of schedule.

I had a Pentair 3/4 HP that was starting to be very noisy after 3 seasons of use. This one compared makes almost no noise. it is 1.5HP but use the same power (600Watts) as the 3/4 HP Pentair and the flow is a little bit less yahm the Pentair but still totally fine. Also now I have a low speed (200 Watts) and that will allow me to run the pump 24/7. Time will let me know if it last a few years...

This pump was an easy replacement installWorks great low and high speedsReally moves the water in the poolGot the warranty because the original pump only work for a couple weeksMade in China image that so is this one so time will tell

Easy to install. Includes everything needed. Great price and does the job.

I previously gave this 1 star because it was gushing eater from the strainer cap but the product does have a 1 year warranty and they honored it and sent me a new pump. The customer service was very prompt and helpful.Hopefully the new unit will work!

On Amazon it said that it had dual ports it did not say which size Port was going straight up and which was going to the the side. The one I need is going to the side but will not work with my pump as my filter has a very sturdy hose that will not bend and I cannot rotate the housing so that I can get the proper size fitting at the top. Sending it back

Works great, as far as leaks are concerned----yes it leaked on the discharge so I put a 1 1/4 OD rubber washer in and on the male end of the fittings put "pink teflon tape and pipe dope---no leak.

For that Price , I think you cant expect more. Two speed can save you money on low speed and Power when needed.Only cons is that the Electric cord is a bit short.

Moteur avec 2 vitesses ,très pratique et silencieux , très content,

run it on half speed works great bump it to full speed for vaccuming. very happy
