Replacement Nidec AST165 1.65 Horsepower 56J C-Flange Swimming Pool Pump Motor

A great replacement pump

I’ve only had it installed for 18 hours so the jury is still out on this motor. I switched out a seized up century 1 hp that I’ve been running for 6 months a year/ 14 hours a day for 10 years. The change over was pretty straight forward. I used the old impeller but installed new gaskets and seals. The motor is rated at 1.65 hp up rated which means it’s equivalent to a 1.25 hp standard rated. It’s fairly quiet but just a little louder than the century. This unit is manufactured in Mexico so it’s not Chinese made. If I have further comments about it I will edit this review.

Great packaging and quick delivery. Exact fit to OEM motor.

This motor started making a very loud squealing noise only after 4 months of 12 hour a day use.

Worked on my GE washing machine. It took my husband no time and he had the part changed out.

The media could not be loaded. Replaced a Hayward Super Pump 1HP Motor with this motor. Super fast delivery, great packing….Fit the Hayward flange PERFECT. 4 short bolts and 3 wire hookup or you can wire a regular plug to it. There is a switch you’ll need to change next to the wiring screws under the plastic end cap if you are going to wire a plug. So, far so good, but if something goes south we shall see if they will stand by their product. I have read nothing to say they won’t….. I will keep everyone in the Customer Service loop.

Easy install Hayward supreme pump quiet and powerful

Lasted about 6 months and they would not allow the return of product
