Benefits

The Pentair EC-LA01N helps restore strong pressure-side cleaner performance by supplying the dedicated water pressure these cleaners require. If a booster pump is weak, noisy, leaking, or failing, the cleaner may move slowly, miss debris, or stop operating properly.

By delivering 50 PSI at 12 GPM, this booster pump helps cleaners maintain proper drive performance and debris pickup. The dual-voltage design provides installation flexibility, while the included hose and adapters help simplify setup for compatible systems.

For pool professionals, the EC-LA01N is a reliable replacement option for pressure-side cleaner booster pump installations.

Installation Notes

This booster pump should be installed by a qualified pool professional or licensed electrician. Proper installation requires correct voltage selection, bonding, grounding, plumbing alignment, water flow verification, and cleaner line connection.

The booster pump should only operate when the main circulation pump is running and providing water flow to the booster pump. Running a booster pump without proper water supply can damage the pump.

After installation, verify cleaner movement, hose pressure, wall fitting operation, leak-free plumbing, and proper cleaner performance.
