🛁 Waterway Genesis Bath Pump (321JF10-0150) – 1.0 HP 115V Single-Speed Jetted Bathtub Pump

American-made quality with energy-efficient design for reliable jetted bath performance

📋 Product Overview

The Waterway Genesis 321JF10-0150 is a 1.0 HP single-speed jetted bathtub pump designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA by Waterway Plastics — a company committed to innovation and excellence since 1973. The Genesis Generation represents Waterway’s energy-efficient bath pump line, delivering strong jet performance at 9.0 amps on standard 115V household power.

This OEM-specification pump features a built-in air switch for convenient tub-side on/off control and includes a 3-foot NEMA power cord with 3-prong plug, ready for direct connection. The 1-1/2″ male buttress thread (MBT) connections on both bottom suction and center discharge provide industry-standard compatibility. Three anti-vibration motor mount rubber pads are included for quiet, stable operation.

Waterway has recently upgraded the Genesis bath pump with a thicker discharge wall on the volute for increased strength and a new highly engineered glass reinforced co-polymer housing material (now manufactured in gray for easy identification). This is the same premium material used in Waterway’s high-end pool pumps and filters. The Genesis also features a self-draining volute design and two 3/8″ barbed auxiliary ports on the pump face (factory-plugged, can be drilled out if needed for additional line connections).

⚠️ This is the OEM version (321JF10-0150). Unions are sold separately (Waterway 0602-15B). The package version with two unions included is 321JF10-1150.
