ITT Argonaut / Hayward Pump Seal

Introduction

As a retailer of hot tub spare parts, I’m excited to offer this essential component for your pool system. The ITT Argonaut / Hayward Pump Seal is a crucial replacement part designed to maintain optimal performance in your pool pump. When your pump starts leaking or experiencing reduced efficiency, the seal is often the culprit – and this high-quality replacement can quickly get your system back to peak performance.

Product Overview

This precision-engineered pump seal is specifically designed for ITT Argonaut and Hayward pumps, two of the most trusted names in pool equipment. The seal plays a vital role in preventing water from leaking out of your pump where the motor shaft enters the wet end of the pump housing.

Made from durable materials designed to withstand the harsh conditions of pool water chemistry, this seal offers excellent resistance to chlorine, salt, and other pool chemicals. Its precision manufacturing ensures a perfect fit for compatible Hayward pump models, making installation straightforward and providing a reliable, leak-free seal.

Why Replace Your Pump Seal?

Pump seals naturally wear down over time due to continuous use and exposure to water treatment chemicals. Signs that your pump seal needs replacement include:

• Water leaking from the area between the pump housing and motor
• Unusual noises from the pump
• Reduced water pressure or flow
• Increased energy consumption

Replacing a worn seal promptly not only prevents water damage to your motor but can also extend the life of your entire pump system and maintain energy efficiency.

Installation Tips

Installation of this pump seal requires basic mechanical knowledge and a few common tools. I recommend referring to your pump’s manual for specific disassembly instructions. Generally, the process involves:

1. Disconnecting power to the pump
2. Removing the pump housing
3. Carefully removing the old seal
4. Installing the new seal with proper alignment
5. Reassembling the pump

For optimal performance, I suggest replacing both the stationary and rotating portions of the seal at the same time, even if only one appears damaged.

Compatibility

This seal is compatible with numerous ITT Argonaut and Hayward pump models. It serves as a direct replacement for original equipment parts, ensuring the same quality fit and performance as your original seal.
