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.
