Product Overview
The Pentair HydroBoost 360526 is a booster pump that supplies the added water pressure pressure-side pool cleaners need to perform at their best, without sacrificing the efficiency of the rest of the system. It installs after the filter and feeds the dedicated cleaner line. The 0.8 THP pump runs on 115V or 230V at 60 Hz, has 1-inch NPT ports, and is upgraded with a totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC) motor for whisper-quiet operation.

Compatibility
The HydroBoost 360526 works with pressure-side pool cleaners that require a booster pump and runs alongside your main circulation pump. It is not a main pool pump. Before ordering, confirm your cleaner needs a booster pump, check your voltage and 1-inch plumbing connections, and confirm the part number 360526 matches your needs.
Installation or Upgrade Context
The booster pump is plumbed after the filter on a dedicated cleaner line and is typically wired so it only runs when the main pump is running, which protects the booster from running dry. It is a direct option when replacing a worn or noisy booster pump or adding a pressure-side cleaner to a new pool.
