Independent Supplier & Replacement Part Notice
We are an independent parts supplier and are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Watkins, Hot Spring, Caldera, Tiger River, or Solana. These names and their part numbers are used only to identify compatibility.
We offer replacement parts as alternatives to spa-branded parts. When this listing identifies a part as the same original-manufacturer replacement, it is supplied under the component manufacturer’s branding and part number, which may differ from the Watkins or spa-brand label and number. Other compatible alternatives are identified in the individual product listing. Please review the listed specifications, fitment details, and any installation differences before ordering.

IMPORTANT MOTOR VARIATION NOTICE
Due to ongoing changes in the hot tub pump industry since COVID, motor appearance and configuration may vary, even when the part number is the same. While the pump wet end will be correct, the motor may differ in areas such as capacitor location, labeling, or housing.
If you have a specific motor requirement (clearance, capacitor position, orientation, etc.), you must contact us before ordering so we can verify availability. Do not order first and contact us after delivery due to appearance differences.
Motor variations are outside of our control and may change week to week. Appearance differences do not constitute an incorrect item if specifications are met.
