Pools Supply Unlimited - False Advertising Scam - NO RETURNS!
Pools Supply Unlimited advertised a pool pump EC-015583 as a direct replacement my pump 011580. After receiving the pump and testing it out, I found it would not put enough pressure to the system. I contacted customer service for a RMA return number and was denied and referred to THE MFG Pentair for warranty. After talking with Pentair they told me I was sold the wrong pump. Pentair put me back to Pools Supply. I gave them the case number and haven't heard a word back from Pools Supply. After reading many, many similar experiences I know I am out $909.00. I should have done more research into Pools Supply before I made the purchase. They bury there policy about testing the equipment that they sell you. If you test it or in their words "use it" it can not be returned. Even though the product was falsely advertised as a "DIRECT REPLACEMENT! DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY! I don't know what world you live on but in my world a direct replacement means "A DIRECT REPLACEMENT" DON'T SAY IT IF IT ISN'T TRUE!

Our apologies you’ve had a poor experience with the Pentair pump you purchased. According to Pentair’s official documentation, the WhisperFlo pump EC-015583 is a suitable alternative for discontinued WhisperFlo pump 011580. Now that does not guarantee that pump EC-015583 is a match for your pool and system. Because all pools and systems are different we cannot guarantee any item’s compatibility or accept responsibility for merchandise that does not function with your system. It is always best to consult the product manufacturer and/or your local pool professional. Unfortunately, we cannot accept the return of any product that has been installed and/or used. This is in accordance with our return policy: https://www.poolsupplyunlimited.com/returnspolicy.
