Check the pipe size on the pad before you order, as Waterco lists the ports as 50mm in the brochure and 40\/50mm in the price book. Pick the 100 for most domestic pools and the 150 when you run a heater or a cleaner. If you want the quietest pump, look at the Hydrostorm GEN2 ECO-VS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt plumbs in at the equipment pad with the quick connect unions, flooded suction from the pool, so it sits at or below water level. Fit it yourself, or use a pool installer or plumber. Wiring to a fixed supply needs a licensed electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty \u0026amp; Support\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 year warranty on the pump, conditional on the install and use following Waterco's terms, with some wearing parts at 2 years and labour at 1 year. Commercial use is covered for 1 year. DIY installing? Warranty applies when the install follows the supplied install guide. Questions?
