At Northern Lights we use only the best hot tub pumps, in our tubs. A pump must have one critical feature RELIABILITY! The simple truth is that that cheap spa pumps don't last. A pump failure can result in large damage to the hot tub and possibly lead to flooding and other home damage. Our ULTIMAX spa pumps are manufactured by Balboa the largest pool and spa parts manufacture in the world. The UltraULTIMAX line of pumps represents their top pump series and built for long pump life as well as quiet operation and energy efficiency.
If your spa pump has failed, I suggest you look at an alternative brand. While manufactures may want you to buy the pump through them, the fact is you can replace your pump with any similar rated pump. The three main factors to consider when choosing a replacement spa pump are:
1.) Pump Voltage- Is your existing spa pump a 110-120 VAC pump or 220-240 VAC?
2.) Pump Speeds- Is you spa pump a 2 speed pump or a single speed pump?
3.) Pump Amps- How many amps is your hot tub pump rated for. Two speed pumps will have two rating (high/low). You should replace a pump with similar Amperage rating. Using manufactures listed HP ratings is often not reliable in replacing pumps. Use Amps as a more accurate rating!
Our line of hot tub pumps can replace most other brand of spa pumps. If you old pump needs new life, call us at 1 800 759 8990 and our engineer will be sure to specify the correct replacement model.
