Hayward SPX3000AA Pump Housing With Strainer - 1-1/2 inch x 1-1/2 inch

What This Part Is Used For
The Hayward SPX3000AA is a pump housing with integrated strainer listed as 1-1/2 inch x 1-1/2 inch connections. It forms the main wet end body, holds the basket, and feeds water into the impeller. This component mounts to the motor and connects to the suction and return plumbing.

Why This Part Matters
A cracked housing can pull air on the suction side or leak water under pressure. Either issue can cause loss of prime, weak circulation, and equipment pad water damage. Replacing the housing restores the pump’s structural integrity and proper sealing.
