GREATUS SPX3200A pump housing replacement for Hayward TriStar/EcoStar — thermoplastic, bolt-pattern compatible

Replacement SPX3200A pump strainer housing for Hayward TriStar and EcoStar pumps that restores a secure, serviceable enclosure for the pump’s wet end.

This GREATUS SPX3200A housing is a direct-style replacement designed to fit a wide range of Hayward TriStar (SP3200X and SP3200EE series) and EcoStar models. It provides the rigid outer shell that protects the impeller and volute while keeping plumbing connections and internal components aligned. The housing ships without the Housing Insert Seal Plate Spacer Kit, requiring reuse of the spacer from your original unit, which simplifies fitment for technicians familiar with Hayward pumps.

Which Hayward pump models will this housing fit?

The GREATUS SPX3200A is engineered for compatibility with numerous TriStar and EcoStar variants. It fits SP3200X and SP3200EE series models as well as specific EcoStar units, matching bolt patterns and port locations for straightforward replacement.

• TriStar SP3200X series: SP3205X7, SP3207X10, SP3210X15, SP3215X20, SP3220X25, SP3225X30, SP36075EE, SP36120EE.
• TriStar SP3200EE series: SP3205EE through SP3250EE plus SP322063EEV and SP323063EE variants.
• EcoStar fitment: SP3400VSPVR and SP3400VSP models.

How do I install the replacement housing and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward for someone familiar with pool pump maintenance. Remove the old housing, transfer the Housing Insert Seal Plate Spacer Kit from the original housing into the GREATUS unit, align the bolt pattern, and tighten to manufacturer torque specs.

• Basic tools: socket set or nut driver, flat screwdriver, and thread sealant for external fittings.
• Reused part: you must transfer the existing Spacer Kit; a new housing does not include it.
• Tip: bench-test for leaks after reassembly before reintroducing full service pressure.

What maintenance features and design details help long-term serviceability?

The housing includes practical touches that make upkeep faster and reduce service time. Both work zones have bottom drainage ports to empty trapped water, and the molded alignment points simplify reassembly of internal components.

• Bottom drainage ports in both zones for easier winterizing and repairs.
• Molded bolt and port locations match Hayward factory patterns for alignment.
• Durable thermoplastic construction resists pool-chemical exposure and UV when installed protected under equipment covers.

Will I need other parts to complete the swap?

Besides the housing itself, you’ll need the Housing Insert Seal Plate Spacer Kit from your original pump; GREATUS does not include this spacer kit. Check seals, o-rings, and pipe unions for wear and replace them as needed to ensure a leak-free installation.

• Reuse the Spacer Kit from the old housing; a new kit is not included.
• Inspect and, if necessary, replace the lid o-ring, volute o-ring, and union gaskets.
• Have thread sealant or plumber’s tape available for external pipe fittings.

Who is this for: The GREATUS SPX3200A housing is aimed at pool service professionals, DIY-savvy pool owners, and parts distributors needing a reliable, direct-fit replacement housing for Hayward TriStar and EcoStar pumps. It’s ideal when the original housing is cracked or corroded but the internal components and spacer kit remain reusable, offering a cost-effective way to restore pump reliability without replacing the entire wet end.
