XtremepowerUS 2HP In-Ground Swimming Pool Pump Dual Speed High Flow 2" Inlet 230V High Flo 2-Speed w/ Slip-On Fitting Adapter, 5,820 GPH with Filter Basket

Powerful, Quiet, and Efficient Pool Pump Upgrade I recently upgraded to the XtremepowerUS 2HP variable speed pool pump, and it has been a big improvement for my in-ground pool system. Installation was straightforward with the slip-on 2" fittings, and once set up, it started running smoothly right away. What stands out most is the motor—it’s powerful enough to handle high-flow circulation, yet runs much quieter than my old single-speed pump. The variable speed feature has been the biggest advantage. I can adjust the speed for different needs—higher when vacuuming or after heavy use, and lower for regular filtration—which not only keeps the pool clean but should also help with energy savings over time. The pump body feels solid, and the clear lid makes it easy to see when the basket needs cleaning. One thing to keep in mind: since it’s a 230V pump, make sure your setup matches the electrical requirements before purchasing. Also, the instructions could be more detailed, especially for those not used to pool equipment installs, though most pool owners with some experience will manage fine. Bottom line: This XtremepowerUS 2HP variable speed pump is a strong, efficient, and quieter replacement that delivers excellent flow and flexibility. A worthwhile investment for anyone looking to upgrade their pool system.

We bought this pump as a backup to our 30-year old Hayward in ground swimming pool pump, Last June. We didn't need it last summer, but this summer we thought we would start fresh. We hired an electrician to wire the pump up, and started it up. NOTHING. Tried it again. Electrician came back and said he did everything to code to call a pool serviceman. Another $225. and was told that the cover doesn't fit tight enough to create a seal for the necessary suction to enable it to perform. Notified the company, who provided us with a part list for $15 and when I ordered the parts to hopefully get the pump to work - one of the two needed parts is out of stock. This pump not only was never used but 360 days after purchase, the parts are not available - on a swimming pool pump in the beginning of summer. Additionally, this pump is nothing more than a knock off of an American made pump - I can't believe Amazon is selling unserviceable products. I am extremely disappointed with this item and if I can save just one person from purchasing an item that never would have worked and cannot be serviced and save them not only the cost of the pump but $225 for an electrician and another $200 for a pool serviceman to tell me that I bought Chinese-made junk - oh and a whole pool of water that has be be drained - a huge waste of precious natural resources. Please advice Amazon as to what you plan to do with this seller moving forward and let me know what to do at this point. SO DISAPPOINTED. Please note it doesn't even deserve one star but I don't want to leave the field blank.

First I’d like to say that this pump is on the top 10 list. I’m old school, been hooking up these motors for some time, the thing that confused me at first was there was no Thermal Protection, No capacitor. I don’t see this information anywhere, so I’m passing it on to you to save you the research, I’ve had to go through. Then I googled some information, that California has some new power consumption ordinates. THIS MOTOR does not have a capacitor. “According to Section 1605.3(g)(5) of California's Appliance Efficiency Regulation, California requires: Pump motors that are made after January 1, 2006, cannot be split-phase or have a capacitor start-induction run type. Motors with a total horsepower greater than. 75 must operate at two or more speeds.” So after this was established I hooked the pump up to my pool system, found the High, Low and Common from my pool control relays. (My Pool System is controlling this pump completely automatically) Hooked the pump up, not using the High Low switch contained. The Pool pump is very pleasingly quiet and powerful. What I love most about this pump as it’s very quiet. My old Hayward pump was loud, annoying to relax in my back yard, this pump, it’s so quiet, you hardly know its running. All in all, I hooked this pump up myself, as the warranty requires you to register within 14 days with a receipt from an electrician, which I didn’t do. It’s about the 3rd of the cost of a Hayward. I will be purchasing this pump for my future pool pump needs. (Especially since I re-plumed my pool equipment for this pump). I just installed it this weekend, so I don’t have a longevity report yet. I’ll post more information in about a year. My last Hayward lasted 9 years, my neighbor states he's been changing his newer Hayward pumps about every year or two. I've found Replacement Haywards between $500 - $1200 not installed. So that makes this an incredible value. Hope you find my review helpful. UPDATE: 5/24/2023 I purchased this pump Jan 20, 2020, and it's still going strong!!!! I will order another one when needed. I will get a little bigger pump, but other then that absolutely NO COMPLAINTS!!!! An update my pump quit 08/15/2024 I ordered another one just like it. It ran for 4.5 years non-stop!!!! GREAT PUMP!!! The bearings dried out and pump motor froze. GREAT Value!!!!

Product worked as it should, easy to install, would like to see it come 1 1/2” with the 2” adapter. Would have given it a 5 it delivered within 2 to 3 days. Order was placed on a Saturday with one day delivery, came on Friday at 7 pm. Ended up with mustard algae. But overall great

I bought and self-installed this pump back in Oct 2022. Its hard to find good long term reviews as most people do them in the first couple of weeks. Install I thought was very easy(and this was the first pool pump I've ever installed)... I love the screw on compression connections, makes it very easy for later maintenance which im getting to soon. Electrical couldnt be more simple as a swap out(I am experienced with electrical though). This replaced an old Heyward 2HP that was here when I bought the house... for me this XtremePower 2HP runs stronger than the Heyward did, but I also think someone rebuilt the Heyward as some of the part #'s didnt match up. Regardless, I have a huge pool, and when the cartridge filter is clean, this pump cycles my water like a boss... so strong that the cheap old vacuum that was left here was getting stuck to the bottom of the pool(new vac fixed that, but the Heyward was never strong enough to do that). LONGTERM - It's been 1.5 years and this week the pump motor was running but i had very little water movement...My first thought(specially based on some other reviews) was that this low cost pump was dying. But before replacing it I needed to at least pull it out and give it a maintenance look since the motor was still running. My one knock on this unit is there is a fence on the Strainer Housing between the Pump Cover and the Impeller... so getting to the impeller with a screwdriver to see if its plugged is not an option, you have to disassemble it. I removed the pump, which again was super easy due to the screw on fittings, and electric again easy to remove. Im so glad i took the time to do this, I removed the Strainer Housing(6 bolts), removed the Pump Cover(2 screws), and exposed the Impeller. Sure enough after 1.5 years of debris, enough hardy small leaves from my shrubs snuck in there and clogged the impeller. At first I was a little angry I needed to do all this just to unclog the impeller, but I think after doing it, it was a blessing. I was able to clean all these parts with soap and water, including 3 of the o-rings( I didnt use lubricant as the manual stresses not too). After cleaning and putting it back together the pump looked brand new, and is once again performing as good as it did day 1... no leaks, no issues, great power. So, with a little care and maintenance Im hoping to get another year or 2 out of this little trooper... maybe more!!! well worth the money, specially being a lower cost unit. One other note, motor runs hot, and if left in the desert sun it might get hot enough to open up some sort of black hole or time/space continuum haha... be sure to keep this little gem in the shade, he deserves some comfort for all his hard work! Hope this helps.

I have a 38k gallon salt water pool controlled by a Hayward Goldline Aquarite controller. In 10 yrs, i have gone through 3x Hayward Ecostar variable speed pumps. For my pump, sometimes the controller board on the pump failed, sometimes the motor failed once both failed. Very expensive to replace and PITA as well. The irony is that people (like me) buy these expensive variable speed pumps but usually only use them for two speeds (High and Low) yet they are prone to failure due to the additional electronics required to support variable speed. I bought this xtremepower 230v dual speed pump for a fraction of the price of a new Hayward variable speed pump. This new pump was easy to install, has plenty of power and is MUCH quieter than my previous Hayward pump. Note that the installation did require some slight changes to my plumbing/fittings (inlet/outlet are in slightly different locations than my Hayward pump). Also, while the xtremepower pump has a simple high/low switch physically on the pump that you can use "out of the box", it was really easy to control high/low operation using my main pool control panel (Hayward Aquarite) by wiring it the following way (disclaimer, I am not an electrician, do so at your own risk): If you look at the two pictures from my review, I simply disconnected the yellow and black wires from the stubs that go from the pump to the switch, I wired my 230v breakers to the relays as show in the other picture. The "Lo Speed" wire shown in the black/white diagram should be connected to the left top stub of the pump (formerly where the black wire was connected, as in the color picture). The "Hi Speed" wire shown in the black/white diagram should be connected to the right top stub of the pump (formerly where the yellow wire was connected, as in the color picture). The "Common" wire in the black/white diagram should be connected to the center top post of the pump. Lastly, run the ground to the ground stub of the pump. Before turning on the 230v breaker to run the pump, be sure to configure your pool controller for a dual speed pump along with the correct aux relay that you are using (in this case, Aux2), instead of the variable speed pump setting that you may have previously been using. After that, turn on the breaker and you should be up and running. One word of caution, do not expect ANY support from xtremepower. They don't even answer their phone. At this price, if the pump fails, you simply buy a new one to replace it. I think you can go through 3 of these for the cost of one variable speed pump... I'll provide an update to this review if the pump ever does fail but so far, so good.

customer service is very lacking Latest email from them...

I tried to check around and if the air is coming in the lid maybe a new lid would fix it but if not then I am not sure what else would be the issue or have a suggestion on a better fix so be advised... I bought the pump in 12/2023, it worked well for 5 months and now the lid broke ( Looked at their web site replacement lid is $35 ). They are NOT standing behind their product. You would think a normal 1 year warranty would apply. Product has the potential to be good. Seller/manufacturer does not support it. Customer service is terrible. Not a good product. Don't buy Installed in 12/2022, now 5/23 it no longer pulls in water. Pump turns on but air comes in around seal. Was great till now. Pressure was great while it worked. Would like a refund

I have about 10 of these in service and so far all are still working. I think 4 years is the longest so far. This model matches a name brand model and drop in easy as a replacement normally with just two cuts to the old plumbing for the new connectors. Also I noticed the wire needs to be 2-3 inches longer to reach the connectors as the screws are on the opposite side of the name brand pump. I can pull the extra inches most of the time if there is extra in the timer box but if not a whole new harness should be used as they are around $20 and have about 6 inches extra on each end. This pumps works great at full speed. running it at low speed will not move a sweep but sweeps work fine at the high speed mode. If the pump is running hot you have it wired wrong, I noticed some bad reviews about it running hot. Have not had that problem with this model (2HP with 2 inch.) I only use this version or the name brand model which is about $1000 more than this one. Good bargain pump.
