Blue Wave NE6171B Maxi Replacement Pump for Above Ground Pools 1.5 HP

What to Check Before Buying the NE6171B

The Blue Wave NE6171B is a 1.5 HP self-priming replacement pump for above-ground pools, running on 110 volt AC with a 6-ft cord. The manufacturer describes it as having a dual port design allowing either vertical or horizontal discharge to fit most filter systems — confirm your existing plumbing orientation matches one of these before installing.

Compatibility and Included Hardware

• Listing part/model number: NE6171B; one unit per order. No specific port thread size is stated in the listing, so measure your filter system’s ports to verify fit.
• Seller features describe durable polymer (polyethylene) construction that resists corrosion, and a clear strainer lid for easy cleaning. The comparison to Hayward, Sta-Rite and Pentair quality is a manufacturer marketing claim, not an independent test result.
• Listing states this pump is not legal for sale in California; check local regulations.
