Skill Level: Intermediate — requires disconnecting water supply lines and accessing the pump from the front or rear panel depending on model.
Always disconnect power and water before beginning. Have towels and a shallow pan ready — residual water will drain when hoses are removed. Inspect the pump filter and drain hose for blockages before installing the new pump; a clog is often the root cause of pump failure.
