Hayward SPX3220Z2BER Pump Motor - 2 HP Square Flange 2-Speed

What This Part Is Used For
The Hayward SPX3220Z2BER is a pump motor listed as 2 HP, square flange, 2-speed. It replaces the motor on a compatible Hayward pump so the system can run high speed for vacuuming and backwashing and low speed for daily filtration. This motor mounts to the pump wet end at the equipment pad.

Why This Part Matters
A failing motor can trip breakers, overheat, or stop starting, which leaves the pool without circulation and quickly impacts water clarity. Two-speed systems rely on consistent motor performance to keep heaters, cleaners, and chlorination equipment seeing stable flow. Replacing the correct motor restores reliable operation and proper speed switching. This is a common repair when the wet end is still solid but the motor has failed from age, water exposure, or bearing wear.
