This 2HP Impeller component is designed for Waterway Executive pump wet ends, compatible with both 48 Frame wet ends (up to 2HP motors) and 56 Frame wet ends (2HP motors). The impeller installs between the face plate and volute housing of your Executive wet end assembly. We recommend replacing the seal simultaneously with impeller replacement for optimal performance. Available individually or as part of a complete repair kit with seal and silicone, this component restores damaged impeller assemblies. This listing includes (1) Impeller ONLY.
Important: For 115v motors with 1HP impellers, expect approximately 11-12.0 Amps on high speed; 230V motors will display roughly 8.0 Amps on high speed. Consult the amperage chart below for additional horsepower ratings.
Warning: Installing an oversized impeller will NOT increase spa performance and will cause motor overheating and potential damage during high-speed operation.
Identification Tip: 2HP, 3HP, and 4HP impellers typically feature horsepower stamps in the center (refer to product images). 1HP and 5HP models generally lack stamps—use the amperage chart for verification.
Refer to the amperage specifications below for proper HP identification:
Frame size identification: 48 Frame wet ends measure 3 5/8" between motor through-bolts or 5 3/16" in an X pattern. 56 Frame wet ends measure 4 1/8" between bolts or 5 3/4" in an X pattern.
Always reference the amperage label on your motor—do NOT rely on wet end stickers, motor labels, or BHP markings for horsepower determination.
Locate the motor label showing either dual amperages (2-speed pumps) or single amperage (single-speed pumps). Example format: 10.0/3.5 where 10.0 represents high-speed amperage.
115V Amperage Reference:
3/4HP: 8-9 Amps
1HP: 11-12 Amps
1.5HP: 16-17 Amps
2HP: 19-20 Amps (uncommon configuration)
230V Amperage Reference:
8.0 Amps = 1 HP
10.0 Amps = 2 HP
12.0 Amps = 3 HP
14.0 Amps = 4 HP
16.0 Amps = 5 HP
IMPORTANT: Motor or pump horsepower labels may be inaccurate. Always determine correct impeller size using the amperage rating from the motor label, not stated horsepower specifications.
