This particular model – B2854 – is a square flange motor, which is important because not all motors fit all pumps.
The square flange is a specific mounting pattern, so make sure your pump uses that before buying.
It’s built to last, with durable construction that handles the constant moisture and outdoor exposure that pool pumps face.
The motor is new, unused, and comes in its original packaging.
It’s also relatively quiet for a 1.
5 HP motor, which is a nice bonus if your pump runs for extended periods.

The UPC is 786674076632, and the MPN is B2854, so if you’re cross-referencing parts, that’ll help you confirm compatibility.
The motor is listed as a “pool cover pump” type, but it could also work for other square flange applications like some spa pumps or small irrigation pumps – just check your specs.
The motor is electric, obviously, and it’s designed for continuous duty in wet environments.
No batteries or weird extras – just a straightforward motor replacement.

Installing this isn’t super complicated if you’re handy with basic tools – you’ll need to disconnect the old motor, transfer the impeller and seal components, and then mount this one.
Just be careful with the wiring and make sure you match the voltage and wiring diagram.
Overall, this A.
