I have a pentair whisperflow pump with a circular stamp on it which I think is the date - 09 with an arrow pointing to 8, so I think it was made in 8/2009. I have 1.5 inch pool plumbing (except 2 inch at the pump), and a 48 sq ft DE pool filter. I have been advised that I need to replace the current motor which is probably too powerful for the pool plumbing. Original motor on pool was A.O. Smith 2.0 HP, back in 1987 with the original equivalent ot the whisperflow pump (all has been replaced since then). Pentair suggests replacing the current motor with USQ 1202, and I probably need the appropriate tune up kit or seals, also. I would appreciate comments on this choice of motor for my pool, and whether the same impeller (on the pentair whisperflow pump dated 2009) will work with the new motor (not planning replacement of impeller, unless it would be required).
