Description
What’s Included: Volute, volute cover, volute o-ring, volute stainless steel screws, wear ring, impeller, and the shaft seal.
Description: This is the AFTER-MARKET “wet end” for the Wavemaster® 5000 1.5HP pump that was used on the 1997-2000 Hot Spring Jetsetter, 1997-2000 Tiger River Sumatran and 1997 Tiger River Bengal spa models. The impeller is not available separately. This “wet end” will attach to your existing motor. Your Wavemaster 5000 (1.5 HP) jet pump is comprised of two main components: the electric motor and the “wet end”. In some cases, this entire “wet end kit” is needed. Perfect remedy if your ‘wet end” has cracked due to a severe freeze since neither of the two halves is available individually. The 1.5HP impeller 71404-SY and the shaft seal are still available. The front and top of this “wet end kit ” will attach to your existing compression fittings (aka pump union).
Installation: All “wet end kits” come pre-assembled from the factory. To install this kit you’ll disassemble it then re-assemble it one piece at a time onto your existing pump motor. Typical assembly time is two hours for the non-service tech. After connecting the pump unions (compression fittings) the pump may not align with the holes that anchor the pump to the floor of the equipment compartment. You may need to re-anchor using no longer than 1″ lag bolts. When pre-drilling for those bolts, do not pre-drill more than 1/4″ into the floor of the equipment compartment or you may drill into plumbing lines.
Important information for replacement parts:
Please check the vendor code or pump model on your pump before ordering replacement parts and use the chart to determine the correct wet-end replacement. If your vendor code reads “3536“, see item 77710.
