Hello
I have a 2010 Hayward pump Model #S48E48!04 with HP - 40GPM. No basket reservoir. This motor is still pretty quite. I am having a very difficult time keeping this motor primed. It is used in a water feature and sits about 12" to 18" above the water pool line. There’s about 75-100 Gallons of water total. I have a Jandy 7235 check valve about 12" in front of the intake side of this pump. Never enough water stored to prime pump. I am looking to replace this pump with a Hayward SP1775 self priming unit. I believe its a 3/4HP unit. What are your thoughts on this unit. Does it match the GPM on my existing unit? Is a self priming pump the way to go? Is the SP1775 quite? Let me know your thoughts. Do you have this pump in stock?
Thanks
Don
