Horizontal
Discharge Spa & Hot Tub Pumps |
Spa pumps that have
a Horizontal Discharge are actually a Side
Discharge pump that has had the Wet End (Pump Housing) rotated.
If you need a pump that has the Discharge in the Horizontal position
you will need to purchase a Side Discharge
unit (Vertical Orientation), and rotate the Wet End from the
Vertical to the Horizontal Position. Rotating the Wet End is a
simple process, that can be completed in 5-10 minutes. To find
a Spa Pump to fit your tubs requirements simply purchase the Side
Discharge Spa Pump that matches your existing Horsepower,
Voltage, & Speed (RPM). Then after delivery of the pump rotate
the Wet End. You can also follow the instructions below on how
to rotate the Wet End to turn a Side
Discharge Spa Pump, in to a Horizontal Discharge Spa Pump.

Follow
Our Guide Below To Help You Change A Side Discharge
Hot Tub Pump To A Horizontal Discharge. |

|
-Step
1: You will need to find the back of your pump's
motor. This will be on the opposite side of the pump's plumbing
connections. If your motor has a cover on the back, remove
the cover. Typically this can be done with a flat head screwdriver
or 1/4 socket & ratchet. If your pump's motor does not
have a cover proceed to step 2. |
|
-Step
2: On the back of your pump's motor, there will be
four 1/4" drive bolts that run the entire length of the
motor casing & connect to the Pump's Wet End assembly.
These are in the 10, 2, 5 & 7 O' Clock position. Locate
these 4 bolts. |
|
-Step
3: Loosen all four of the 1/4" drive bolts using
a ratchet & a 1/4" socket. These are in the 10, 2,
5 & 7 O' Clock position. |
|
-Step
4: Once the four 1/4" drive bolts have been
loosened, pull them back a few inches so that they are completely
free & clear of the Pump Wet End (other side of Motor).
These also can be fully removed if needed. |
|
-Step
5: Now that the 1/4" drive bolts have been loosened
& pulled back, grab the Wet End by the discharge port
at the top. The Wet End is now free to move in to the Horizontal
Discharge position. |
|
-Step
6: Once the Wet End is in the Horizontal Discharge
position, simply reinstall the 1/4" drive bolts &
motor cover. You have now converted your Vertical
Side Discharge Pump, in to a Horizontal Discharge Pump. |
