Will a 230V pump run on 115V?
Starting a 230v motor on 115v will not harm the motor. However, supplying 230v to a 115v motor will cause it to burn up. The old pump started tripping the breaker after running about two years.
Can a 240v pump run on 120v?
A 240v pump running on 120v wont build pressure. if a 120v pump wont build pressure with 120v it is shot. You can not tell what v pump is by how many wires on the pump.
Is the voltage on my pool pump 115v or 230V?
Yes, the label on your motor lists the voltage. However, that is the voltage for the motor, not necessarily your pool. Let us explain. Manufactures make motors 115V, 230V, or 115/ 230V. So, if your motor lists one specific voltage, it’s safe to go with that.
Can a 115v pump be used with a 230V motor?
Let us explain. Manufactures make motors 115V, 230V, or 115/ 230V. So, if your motor lists one specific voltage, it’s safe to go with that. However, if you have a dual speed motor, one compatible with both 115V AND 230V, then you’re back to square one.
What kind of pool pump do I Need?
The Everbilt 1.5 HP 230 volt / 115 volt pool pump looks like a quality pump and should be a easy install to replace my old pump. I wish I had received the pump before the weather had turned so cold and I had closed the pool for the winter. I will be running a new power wire and converting the circuit to 230 volts as soon as the ground thaws.
What kind of motor does everbilt pool pump use?
The Everbilt 1.5 HP pool pump is designed for use with permanently installed above-ground and in-ground swimming pools. It is constructed of corrosion-resistant reinforced thermoplastic. The 115/230 Volt single-phase motor is factory preset at 230 Volts. The pump is self-priming after the initial prime.

How is a 240 volt pump wired up?
You are mixing up circuits 1 & 2 with the two hot wires of a 240 volt circuit. Those two do not correspond. One hot wire gets wired directly to the common terminal of the pump, while the other hot wire goes to either the high speed or low speed connections, switched by circuits 1 & 2 on the timer.
