Description
Meet the Aqua-Flo Flo-Master CP FMCP from Gecko—a purpose-built spa pump engineered to push higher flow through large, multi-jet tubs and demanding jet configurations. With a 1.0 horsepower, 230-volt dual-speed motor and a 1-1/2" center-discharge design, this OEM pump is built to sustain robust jet action while delivering reliable, long-term performance.
What sets FMCP apart is its combination of precision engineering and practical design. The proprietary high-performance impeller is tuned for flow that outpaces many competitors in real spa applications. When you need serious output for bigger spas or commercial-like setups, FMCP delivers consistent pressure and steady rhythms across two speeds. Add in construction that emphasizes durability and easy maintenance, and you have a pump that stays in service longer with less downtime.

- Drain plug options located at 3, 6, or 9 o’clock for flexible servicing
Important compatibility note: since 2012, Aquaflo pumps have been rated with both operational horsepower (ohp) and total horsepower (thp). If you’re replacing an older Aquaflo unit, be sure to match the operational horsepower (ohp) rating to ensure equivalent performance and fit.
Ideal for: large, multi-jet spas, high-output home systems, and installations where sustained jet power is critical. FMCP is especially well-suited for upgrades from older low-flow pumps that struggle with multi-port jet arrays, delivering stronger cycles and more consistent jet feel without sacrificing efficiency.
Practical tips for best results:
- Plan for 1-1/2" plumbing with MBT connections to maintain optimal flow and reduce turbulence.
- Pair the 2-speed option with a spa control to balance energy use and jet intensity depending on user needs.
- Keep hair and lint traps clear to preserve self-priming capability and reduce cavitation risk.
- When replacing an older Aquaflo unit, verify the ohp rating to match performance precisely.
- If you’re upgrading from a non-FMCP model, confirm your spa’s electrical supply and wiring to support 230V operation and dual-speed control.
For spa pros and serious enthusiasts, the FMCP delivers tangible results: stronger jet action, dependable operation, and a pump designed to endure the rigors of frequent use. With its robust construction, precise tolerances, and thoughtful features, this Gecko OEM pump is a smart, long-term investment in your spa’s performance and reliability.
