3/4 horsepower electric motor. This was on a Polaris pool vacuum booster pump for about 2 years. It was only used about 4 hours per day for the summer months. This can be used for any number of things other than pool use. It can be wired for 120 v and 240v very easily at the back of the motor. Pump section is included but the faceplate has a crack. Front plates cost about $70.
