1HP In/Above Ground Pool Pump, 5860GPH Single Speed High Flow 115V Powerful Self Primming Swimming Pool Pumps with Filter

I purchased a Vidapool pump to replace my aging unit on my above ground pool, and I can confidently say this is one of the best pool pumps on the market. From start to finish, the experience has been outstanding. Installation was a breeze. The instructions are clear and straightforward, and I had everything up and running without a single hiccup. Once it was going, the difference was immediately obvious. The water circulation is incredibly powerful; nothing has had a chance to settle at the bottom since day one, and the water stays crystal clear. The noise level is night and day compared to my old pump. I literally cannot hear this one running. My previous unit was so loud it ruined time spent outdoors in the evenings, and that problem is completely gone. I’ve run it on both 115V and 220V, and the 2HP motor is impressively powerful on both. The fittings connected perfectly with zero leaks. The built-in timer was the feature that initially caught my attention, and it delivers. Truly a set-it-and-forget-it convenience. When I had a question, customer service responded quickly and resolved everything with ease. Overall, this is one of the best purchases I’ve made on Amazon in years. Highly recommend!

Bought this pump in May of 25' for my 30ft above ground pool. Pump worked flawlessly through the season. Very powerful and extremely quiet. Quieter, more powerful, and more efficient than my Hayward pump that it replaced. The next season 26, I turned it on and it had sprung a leak on the pump housing. After looking up my I order I realized the pump had a 2 year warranty. I reached out to Vidapool via email with the Amazon order and the issue I had. To my surprise within 24hrs they returned my email stating I was still well within my warranty and that they would ship me a replacement once I sent them a picture of the cracked housing. I did what they asked, of coarse, and the pump was on its way. I had to write this review not only to state the qualities of the pump, but the customer service was incredible. It's rare to get good customer service nowadays and if I get it, I have to give credit where credit is due. Highly recommended!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am extremely pleased with this pool pump! It runs very quietly, which is a huge improvement over my previous pump. The two power-speed settings are a great feature, allowing me to adjust the performance based on my pool's needs while also helping with energy efficiency. What really stood out was the customer service. Every question I had was answered quickly, and the support team was knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process. After my old pump failed, my pool became cloudy very quickly. This pump made an incredible difference and helped clear the water up much faster than I expected. It has been reliable, efficient, and easy to use. I highly recommend this pump to anyone looking for a quality replacement or upgrade.

I ordered this Pool Pump because my old one was going to cost too much to put back in service. I received the pump and went to work installing it. I got it all hooked up and started putting water into the pre filter or pot, and started losing water coming out at the water inlet. I contacted vitapool and they confirmed it was leaking through a crack at the inlet. They recommended I send it back to Amazon as I'd get a replacement faster that way. I could have let them send me a new one and keep the bad one which would give me an extra motor which is usually the first thing to go out. I opted to send it back to Amazon. I did the return stuff yesterday and UPS picked up the bad one this afternoon. About an hour later the new one arrived from Amazon. I was able to install it in just a few minutes as I already had all the new piping done, just screwing the pump to the pipes and hook up the electricity. It started right up and primed itself in less than 30 seconds. The reason for the 5 stars is their Customer Service. They worked with me to get the best results. The only thing I didn't like was they only work through email, no phone work. But, I am very happy with the new pump which is real quite. This is also a good value as it was going to be over $400.00 to get my old pump working which was still going to be an old one with some new parts. With this I have an all new Pool Pump for just over $250 after taxes. That's about a $200 savings less about $50 for materials to hook the new one up. The only reason it's that much is due to a valve I had to replace to choose which pipe I'm pulling from, the cleaner line or the Skimmer line. I'd recommend this pump to anyone. I have an in ground pool that's about 18,000 gallons of water and it claims to work on above ground pools too which I'm sure it would.

Ok I read the one star reviews and it frightened me, then read the five star reviews and said jeez I’m just gonna order the darn pump and see for myself. I ordered the one hp version to replace my old Hayward 3/4 hp pump which finally bit the dirt after many years of fateful service. Wow this pump is a lot quieter than my old one and pushes a little bit more water through the system. I have a 13,000 gallon in ground pool. First of all I read about how this new pump is not self priming… well mine is and hasn’t stopped self priming yet so I’m not sure how other folks hooked their pump up but I followed the directions and it is definitely self priming so far. The pump arrived complete no missing parts and no cracked housing or loose parts. I must warn you the 2” adapters are a little loose fitting I just used a ton of glue … the 1 1/2 threaded fittings were dead on exact fit for 1 1/2 inch pvc. This pump puts out a little more pressure than my old pump, my Hayward pool cleaner crawls faster with this new pump. Just so everyone knows … no matter how many horsepower you have you can only move about 2,200 to 2,400 gallons per hour though 1 1/2 inch PVC pipe so purchasing a bigger pump isn’t always gonna pump more water through a certain sized pipe. My old pump cost over $400 and used 11 amps… this one cost half that and uses only about 8 amps so I’m already saving money on my electric bill, also it’s running a lot cooler than the old one , just warm … not hot to the touch like the old one. I had absolutely no problems cutting the old pump out and installing this pump , just needed a couple fittings and some fresh glue and primer, I recommend greasing up the basket lid o-ring and the compression fitting o rings so they are easy to remove later if needed. I’m really impressed with this pump and will definitely purchase another one if needed however I also purchased the Asheron extended warranty no questions asked just in case for only 26 bucks for two years so I’m good to go and still wondering why so many one star reviews? Lol

I have a path to buy more expensive brands at a discount but as we are nearing the end of swimming season, decided to try this pump. It arrived in a couple of days and I installed it myself. It is 110 volt with a pre attached cord and plug which makes the electrical easy as long as you have a grounded receptacle close by. Since my previous pump was 220 volts I am running this unit on a short, higher than standard amp extension cord. PVC pipe is easy to work with and the small difference in the position of inlet and outlet pipes can be addressed in minutes with a battery powered reciprocating saw, a few fittings, pipe and glue. My pool holds 22,000 gallons. The previous pump was 1.5 HP, 220 volt and pumped considerably more volume and pressure. Due to the volume of water pushed through the jets I have had concerns the pump I was replacing might be a bit more than my pool required, but it did what was needed to keep the water nice and clear as long as balance was in place. The new pump was almost silent, compared to the old one. The “high, off, low) switch is on the back of the pump and it is nice to have and reach. I have an automatic chlorinator that holds 3” tablets. Best investment ever made regarding pool chemical management. This pump does not provide a sufficient water volume on low speed to enable the chlorinator siphon to work properly. Low speed might be useful in winter to keep water flowing but for every day use, it is not an option for me. On high, the volume of water and noise is noticeably less than my prior pump. After several weeks of use, my water is crystal clear and the balance is on target. Thus far, my only complaint is I wish the low speed was high enough to be useful to me. It may be fine for others. It comes with a lever that fits into holes on the filter lid which facilitates removal. This pump cost less than half of the one I was planning to purchase. Thus far, I am very happy with its performance.

Installation was easy, runs quiet, so far so good [1 month of use] However, if you go to their website, there is no website. Just "coming soon" with a place to enter your email if you want to be notified. QR code to register for additional warranty does the same thing.

Pump works perfectly. Very powerful. Note that plumbing connections are for glued PVC and are not threaded.
