Additional Info
The Aladdin GO-KIT6 is a complete seal and gasket set for Sta-Rite Dura-Glas and Max-E-Glas pumps, providing all essential components needed for a full pump rebuild. This FAQ supports walk-in customers at Discount Pool Mart by explaining fitment, installation expectations, and typical troubleshooting scenarios. These details help ensure the GO-KIT6 is the correct choice before picking it up in store.
Compatibility and Fitment
Walk-in customers often want to confirm that the GO-KIT6 matches their Sta-Rite pump model. This section outlines what to verify before visiting Discount Pool Mart.
How do I confirm the GO-KIT6 fits my Sta-Rite Dura-Glas or Max-E-Glas pump?
Check your pump label for Dura-Glas or Max-E-Glas markings. If your pump uses the standard Sta-Rite seal plate and housing gasket layout, the GO-KIT6 is the correct rebuild kit. Bringing photos to the store helps staff verify compatibility quickly.
Does the GO-KIT6 include the mechanical seal for these pumps?
Yes, the kit includes the mechanical shaft seal along with all major pump gaskets. Its components match original Sta-Rite specifications. Walk-in customers often purchase this kit during complete pump refurbishments.
Will the kit help with recurring air leaks or loss of prime?
Yes, worn gaskets and seals commonly cause suction-side leaks. Installing the GO-KIT6 restores sealing integrity across the pump housing, improving prime retention.
Installation and Troubleshooting Tips
Customers frequently ask what to expect during a rebuild and how to ensure proper sealing afterwards.
What is the typical process for installing the GO-KIT6?
Disassemble the pump, remove all old gaskets and seals, clean each mating surface, and install the new components in their designated locations. Even seating is essential for a proper seal. Reassembly should be done carefully to avoid pinching the new gaskets.
How does a worn mechanical seal affect pump operation?
It can allow water to escape around the motor shaft, leading to drips, noise, or pump overheating. The mechanical seal included in the GO-KIT6 corrects this by restoring a watertight barrier.
Why might the pump still struggle to prime after installing new seals?
Air may still enter through the pump lid O-ring or plumbing connections. Ensuring all components are clean and properly lubricated helps create a complete suction seal.
In-Store Pickup and Local Guidance
Many Discount Pool Mart customers perform full pump rebuilds at home and rely on in-store expertise.
Is the GO-KIT6 typically available for pickup at Discount Pool Mart?
Yes, due to the popularity of Dura-Glas and Max-E-Glas pumps. Calling ahead ensures availability. Customers often purchase a new pump lid O-ring at the same time.
Should I bring my old parts or photos for verification?
Yes, staff can quickly confirm if the GO-KIT6 matches your pump model by reviewing photos or the old gaskets. This helps avoid extra trips.
Do customers usually replace additional parts during a rebuild?
Yes, impeller screws, pump lids, and O-rings are commonly replaced during a full refurbishment. Staff can help you identify other worn components.
