Product details

The Pentair 356286S is the almond TEFC replacement motor for the SuperFlo VST and WhisperFlo VST variable speed pumps, specified for pumps manufactured after October 2020.

Motor only

This listing is the motor by itself. The drive kit and the drive cover are not included, so plan on reusing the ones already on the pump or sourcing them separately. That is worth confirming before the pump comes apart rather than after.

Check the build date

Pentair specifies this motor for pumps built after October 2020. The date is the deciding factor, not just the model name, so read the pump label before ordering.

TEFC and the almond finish

TEFC means totally enclosed fan cooled: the motor is sealed against outside air and a fan moves air over the outside rather than through the windings. The almond housing matches the finish of the pumps it goes on.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Does this include the drive?
No. It is the motor only. The drive kit and the drive cover are not included.
Which pumps does it fit?
Pentair lists it for SuperFlo VST and WhisperFlo VST pumps. The product title covers both, while the manufacturer description names the SuperFlo VST, so check your model and build date against the part before ordering.
Does the build date matter?
Yes. It is specified for pumps manufactured after October 2020. Pentair changed the motor on these pumps, so an earlier pump needs a different part.
What does TEFC mean?
Totally enclosed fan cooled. The motor is sealed against the outside air and cooled by a fan rather than drawing air through the windings.
