Gecko AquaFlo XP2 XPE 2.0 HP Wet End With Two Inch MBT And Forty Eight Frame Model

Upgrade the heart of your spa circulation with the Gecko AquaFlo XP2/XPE 2.0 HP Wet End. Designed for reliability in 2.0 HP, 48-frame systems, this complete wet end is the smart choice for XP2/XP2E pumps, delivering steady flow, durable performance, and installation flexibility in a single, cohesive package.

Why this Gecko wet end stands out

• Dual rating awareness: In 2012, Aquaflo pumps adopted both a nominal operational horsepower (ohp) and a total horsepower (thp) rating. If you’re replacing an older Aquaflo unit, be sure to match the AMP rating to ensure proper performance.
• Rotatable discharge for flexible installs: The wet end can be rotated 90 degrees to change the discharge position, making it easier to fit into tight spa cabinets or awkward plumbing runs without reworking existing lines.
• Complete wet end kit: The package includes all essential components for a ready-to-install replacement: volute, seal, impeller, wear ring, suction cover, suction cover o-ring, drain plug, drain plug o-ring, and suction cover screws. Note that motor and unions are sold separately.
• Standard connections for seamless retrofits: Side discharge and 2" MBT suction/discharge connections with a 2" pipe size, center suction style, and 48-frame thru-bolt motor layout ensure compatibility with a broad range of spa systems.
• Motor versatility: The wet end is designed for use with a 2.0 HP, 48-frame motor that can be either single- or dual-speed, giving you the flexibility to tailor flow to your spa’s needs.
• Precise mounting footprint: Drain plug location at 4, 6, or 9 o’clock and the 3-1/16" outside-diameter suction/discharge ports simplify alignment during installation and service.
