The form readings, priced apart by frame
| Pump form row | Frame A reading | Frame B reading |
|---|---|---|
| Single-speed pump repair visit row | $100-$700 overall band | $70-$120 to $655-$1,200 build-up totals |
| Variable-speed pump repair visit row | $100-$700 overall band | $70-$120 to $655-$1,200 build-up totals |
Neither frame splits its printed bands by pump form: each form row stands on the same printed bands, read as that form's row and never added across the form line. The by-part guide carries the part rows; this guide carries the form rows.
Part build-ups behind the form rows, printed once
| Frame B build-up line, as reported | Part | Labor hours | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacitor row | $25-$60 | 0.5 | $70-$120 |
| Seal assembly row | $75-$150 | 1-2 | $160-$400 |
| Impeller row | $60-$120 | 1 | $145-$245 |
| Motor bearings row | $150-$300 | 2-3 | $320-$600 |
| Complete motor row | $400-$800 | 3-4 | $655-$1,200 |
The build-up lines are printed once here, shared by both form rows -- the same failed part is never carried across the form line as a second line. Each form visit reads against this one set of lines.
Repair-type bands behind the form rows, printed once
| Frame A repair type line, as printed | 2026 reading |
|---|---|
| Motor repair row | $200-$500 |
| Motor replacement row | $350-$700 |
| Seal replacement row | $100-$250 |
| Impeller repair row | $120-$300 |
| Impeller replacement row | $150-$400 |
| Electrical repairs row, capacitors inside it | $100-$250 |
| Leak repairs row | $120-$350 |
| Bearing replacement row | $150-$350 |
| Repairs overall row | $100-$700 |
The bands stand once, as on the hub, with the HomeGuide bearing read at $40-$160 beside the $150-$350 Frame A bearing band. The frames count the same job on different bases -- flat repair-type bands in Frame A (motor repair at $200-$500, repairs overall at $100-$700) against a part-plus-labor build-up in Frame B (a capacitor at $70-$120 in total, a complete motor at $655-$1,200 in total). The bearing line is counted three ways across the frames -- $150-$350 in Frame A, $320-$600 in the Frame B build-up, and $40-$160 in the HomeGuide read beside them -- named as frame differences on every page, never averaged.
The neighbours named apart
Part readings price apart on the companion guide. Named apart, never a row here: the pool pump replacement hub (a new pump going in, its own field), the standing pool pump repair vs replacement guide (its own field -- this cluster carries no repair-vs-replacement guide of its own), pool heaters, pool filters, and whole-pool renovation tickets, each in its own lane.

Frequently asked questions
What does pool pump repair cost by pump type, as reported?
Each form row stands on the same printed bands inside each frame: Frame A prints repairs overall at $100 to $700, and Frame B prints build-up totals from $70 to $120 to $655 to $1,200. Neither frame splits its bands by form.
What does the single-speed row print at, as reported?
Frame A prints the single-speed visit inside its $100 to $700 overall band. Frame B prints the visit against its build-up totals, from a $160 to $400 seal total to a $320 to $600 bearings total.
What does the variable-speed row print at, as reported?
The same printed bands, read as the variable-speed form row: Frame A at $100 to $700 overall with bearing replacement at $150 to $350, Frame B build-ups from $70 to $120 to $655 to $1,200. The form rows are priced apart and never added together.
Why is each failed part printed only once on this page?
The part lines belong to the visit, not to a form: the capacitor at $70 to $120 in total stands once, shared by both form rows, so no failed part is carried across the form line as a second line.
Is a form row the same purchase as the repair-or-replace decision on the standing guide?
No. The standing pool-pump-repair-vs-replacement guide is its own field, named apart here, and this cluster carries no repair-vs-replacement guide of its own. Each form row prices one repair visit alone, at $100 to $700 in Frame A.
