Waterco Aquamite 75 Capacitor
The Waterco Aquamite 75 is a 0.56 kW single-phase pool pump commonly found in pool & spa pumps setups. Here's the capacitor it most likely takes and how to confirm the exact value.

A Waterco Aquamite 75 pool pump typically takes a motor-run capacitor of around 20µF 450V (about 18-22µF). Treat that as a starting point, not a spec. Capacitor values vary even between identical-looking pumps, so read the rating printed on your existing capacitor (or the motor nameplate) and match the µF before ordering. Unsure, or the print worn off? Send us a photo and we'll confirm it.

Confirm before you order
- µF must match: the Aquamite 75 needs 20µF (about 18-22µF), within ±5% of the label. Too low and the motor won't start; too high and it runs hot.
- Voltage can go up, never down: a 450V (or higher) cap is correct here; a 450V part safely replaces a 370V or 440V one. Don't fit below 450V.
- Check the terminal + size: make sure the new cap physically fits the housing and the connections match (or use a spade adapter).
- When in doubt, read your old cap: the printed µF and voltage on the part you're replacing is the final word.
