VIVOHOME Above-Ground Pool Pump 1.5 HP 115V — 5400 GPH High-Flow, Large Strainer

The VIVOHOME 1.5 HP 115V above-ground pool pump delivers up to 5,400 GPH for fast, reliable circulation and easy maintenance.

Engineered for above-ground pools, this 1.5 horsepower pump combines commercial-grade materials with user-focused features: a high-flow impeller for efficient water movement, an extra-large strainer basket to capture debris, and tool-free union fittings for quick setup. With ETL and DOE certifications plus thermal overload protection, it’s built to run safely and withstand pool chemicals and saltwater conditions when installed correctly.

How quickly will this pump circulate my above-ground pool?

The VIVOHOME pump moves water at up to 5,400 gallons per hour with a maximum head of 49.2 feet, so turnaround depends on your pool volume and plumbing layout. Install the unit within 10 feet of the pool for best performance and minimize long suction lines for optimal flow.

• Maximum flow rate: 5,400 GPH
• Max head: 49.2 ft for higher-pressure situations
• Recommended install distance: within 10 ft of pool
• Includes 1.5" and 1.25" adapters to match tubing

Is the pump durable and safe for regular use?

The housing is made from commercial-grade thermoplastic that resists heat and common pool chemicals, and the unit includes a leak-proof mechanical seal and thermal overload protection to help prevent damage. It also carries ETL and DOE certifications for electrical and energy-safety compliance.

• Thermoplastic body for chemical and heat resistance
• Leak-proof mechanical seal and thermal overload protection
• ETL & DOE double certification for safety and compliance
• Suitable for saltwater pools with proper maintenance

How easy is maintenance and debris management?

Maintenance is simplified by an extra-large detachable strainer basket and a transparent lid so you can see when cleaning is needed. A bottom drain plug empties the pump housing quickly to make winterizing or service faster and cleaner.

• Large strainer basket captures leaves and debris
• Clear lid for quick visual checks without opening
• Bottom drain plug for fast, tool-free drainage
• Tool-free union fittings speed up disassembly

What installation steps or precautions should I know?

Tool-free unions and included adapters make connecting to standard above-ground plumbing straightforward, but correct electrical supply and priming are essential for longevity. Never run the pump dry and confirm the inlet stays submerged to protect the mechanical seal and impeller.

• Includes 1.5" and 1.25" adapters plus union fittings
• IPX5 weather rating for outdoor reliability
• Do not run dry—always prime with water before powering on
• Verify correct 115V power supply and grounding before use
