🔄 Sundance Jacuzzi 6000-314 Grundfos Circulation Pump Kit — 115V 3/4″ Barb OEM Replacement
Factory OEM replacement kit with everything needed to retrofit legacy Laing circulation pumps in Sundance and Jacuzzi spas
♨️ Product Overview
The Sundance Jacuzzi 6000-314 is a factory OEM circulation pump replacement kit featuring a Grundfos-based circulation pump engineered specifically for 115V Sundance and Jacuzzi spa models. This is not just a pump — it’s a complete retrofit kit with all the adapters, clamps, hose, wire, and fittings needed to replace legacy Laing low-flow circulation pumps in the field without additional trips to the hardware store.
This new-and-improved Grundfos design replaces the older Laing E10 and SM-909 series circulation pumps that were standard equipment in 115V Sundance and Jacuzzi spas from 1999 through the mid-2000s. The Grundfos pump offers improved reliability with an adjustable output and power cable angle, allowing flexible mounting even when the installation location differs from the original pump placement.
The pump runs at 115V/60Hz with 3/4″ barb connections and is designed for low-flow continuous circulation — the kind of 24-hour filtration and heating circulation that keeps spa water clean and at temperature between uses. It connects directly to the spa control system’s circulation pump circuit.
⚠️ CRITICAL — VOLTAGE CHECK REQUIRED: This is a 115V pump for spas wired as 115V or 120/240V convertible models running the circ pump on 115V. If your spa runs the circulation pump on 230V/240V, you need the 6000-125RK (230V version) instead. Always check the nameplate on your existing circulation pump before ordering. Sundance and Jacuzzi use white/black/green wires for BOTH 115V and 230V pumps — wire color does NOT indicate voltage.

🔗 Compatibility Guide
⚠️ VOLTAGE DECISION — READ THIS FIRST
| Your Spa’s Circ Pump Voltage | Correct Part Number |
|---|---|
| 115V / 120V | 6000-314 ← This Kit |
| 230V / 240V | 6000-125RK (230V Kit) — NOT this pump |
How to check: Look at the nameplate sticker on your existing circulation pump. It will show voltage. Do NOT assume based on wire colors — Sundance/Jacuzzi uses white/black/green wires for both 115V and 230V pumps.

🛠️ Installation Guide
Before You Begin
- Verify voltage — Check the nameplate on your existing circulation pump. Confirm 115V/120V.
- Disconnect power — Turn off the spa at the main breaker. Lock out / tag out.
- Gather tools — Screwdrivers, pliers, crimping tool (if reusing spade lugs), towels for residual water.
Installation Steps
- Open the equipment panel on the side of the spa where the electronics are located
- Disconnect the old pump wiring from the circuit board (typically lower right side — black, white, green wires)
- Remove the old pump — disconnect hose clamps or unions, remove mounting screws
- Mount the new Grundfos pump using the included #6 screws and mounting bracket
- Connect 3/4″ clear PVC hose from spa plumbing to pump barbs using the included 27mm clamps and barb adapter
- Use the PVC elbow (6540-118) as needed to route plumbing to the new pump location
- Connect wiring — Use the included 36″ of #6 copper wire. Connect to the circulation pump terminals on the circuit board
- Prime the pump — Ensure water fills the hose and pump before powering on
- Restore power and verify circulation pump starts and water flows
Important Installation Notes
⚠️ The pump in this kit has an adjustable output and power cable angle — it may need to be installed in a different location than the original OEM pump. This is normal and expected.
⚠️ Never run the pump dry. Ensure the pump is flooded (filled with water) before powering on.
⚠️ Ensure all hose connections are secure with the 27mm clamps provided. Check for leaks after startup.
⚠️ The green wire is for ground/bonding — connect to the spa’s grounding point per NEC requirements.
🔧 Maintenance Guide
Routine Maintenance:
| Task | Frequency | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Check for leaks | Monthly | Around barb connections and clamps |
| Inspect hose | Monthly | Look for kinks, cracks, or discoloration |
| Verify circulation | Monthly | Confirm water is flowing when pump is running |
| Clean spa filters | Per manufacturer schedule | Dirty filters restrict flow and can cause pump overheating |
| Check clamps | Quarterly | Tighten 27mm clamps if loosened |
| Inspect wiring | Annually | Check for corrosion or loose connections |
Warning Signs — Replace Pump If:
- No water flow when pump is running
- Motor hums but doesn’t circulate water
- Water leaking from pump body
- Unusual grinding or vibration
- Spa control system shows flow error (FLO, FL, or similar code)
- Motor overheating or cycling on/off
💡 TIP: Many “flow errors” on Sundance and Jacuzzi spas are caused by a failed circulation pump. If your spa displays a flow error code and the filters are clean, the circulation pump is the most likely cause.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this a complete kit or just the pump? A: Complete kit. Includes the Grundfos pump, two 27mm clamps, two #6 screws, a 3/4″ barb × barb adapter, a PVC elbow, 36″ of #6 copper wire, and 36″ of 3/4″ clear PVC hose. Everything needed for field replacement is in the box.
Q: Will this work on my 230V Sundance/Jacuzzi spa? A: No. This is a 115V/120V pump. If your existing circulation pump nameplate says 230V or 240V, order the 6000-125RK instead. Do NOT rely on wire colors to determine voltage — Sundance/Jacuzzi uses white/black/green wires for both 115V and 230V pumps.
Q: Does this replace the Laing E10 circulation pump? A: Yes. The 6000-314 is the current factory OEM replacement for the Laing E10 (6500-460) and all older SM-909 series circulation pumps in 115V Sundance and Jacuzzi spas.
Q: What if the pump doesn’t fit in the exact same mounting spot? A: This is expected. The Grundfos pump has adjustable output and cable angles and may need to be installed in a slightly different location than the original Laing pump. The included hose, adapters, and elbow accommodate this.
Q: My spa shows a flow error (FLO/FL). Is this the fix? A: A failed circulation pump is the most common cause of flow errors when filters are clean. If your existing circ pump isn’t circulating water, replacing it with the 6000-314 (115V models) should resolve the error.
Q: Is this an OEM part? A: Yes. The 6000-314 is a genuine Sundance/Jacuzzi factory part, not aftermarket. Spa Parts Plus (spaparts.com) is an authorized Sundance distributor.
Q: What’s the difference between 6000-314 and 6500-460? A: The 6500-460 was the previous Laing E10 115V circulation pump. The 6000-314 is the current Grundfos-based OEM replacement kit that supersedes it, with improved reliability and included retrofit accessories.
Q: Does the pump style vary? A: Yes. Pump and motor manufacturers reserve the right to change motors or pump style without notice. The motor/housing you receive may look different from photos. Functionality and fitment remain the same.
Q: How do I know if my spa has a 115V or 230V circ pump? A: Check the nameplate sticker on the existing circulation pump. It will clearly state the voltage (115V, 120V, 230V, or 240V). The spa’s supply voltage does not always determine circ pump voltage — many 240V spas run the circulation pump on 120V via one leg of the 240V supply.
