Installation Tips
-
Always replace the motor shaft seal whenever replacing a pump motor.
-
Make sure all surfaces are clean and free of debris before installation.
-
Avoid touching the polished faces of the seal with your fingers to prevent contamination.
-
Lubricate the seal with a small amount of pool lube (never petroleum-based products).
-
Ensure proper alignment during reassembly to avoid premature wear.
For best results, pair this shaft seal with a full pump gasket kit to restore complete sealing performance.
Extend the Life of Your Pool Pump
A failed shaft seal allows water to drip down the shaft and into the motor bearings. Over time, this causes rust, electrical shorts, and ultimately motor failure. By installing a new US Seal PS-200, you stop the leak at its source, preventing costly repairs and keeping your pool equipment running smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How do I know if I need to replace my shaft seal?
A: If you see water leaking between the pump housing and the motor, your shaft seal is likely worn or damaged and should be replaced immediately.
Q: Does the PS-200 fit all pool pumps?
A: No, but it fits most major brands like Pentair, Hayward, Sta-Rite, and Jacuzzi. Always verify compatibility before purchasing.
Q: What is the difference between the PS-200 and generic seals?
A: The PS-200 uses Viton elastomers, which resist heat and harsh chemicals better than economy seals that use Buna rubber. This means longer life and fewer replacements.
Q: Should I replace the shaft seal when changing my motor?
A: Yes, it’s highly recommended. Installing a new motor with an old seal can lead to leaks that damage your new motor.
Q: Can I install the seal myself?
A: Yes, if you’re comfortable working with pump repairs. Many DIY pool owners successfully install shaft seals, but professional installation is also available.
