Waterway Executive 56 Spa Pump – All Sizes & Amperage Options
The Waterway Executive 56 is not a single pump part number — it is a pump family.
Multiple Executive 56 pumps exist with different amperage ratings and plumbing sizes, even though the motor label usually just says “Executive 56”.
This page lets you select the correct Executive 56 pump without needing to match confusing Waterway part numbers.
To identify the correct Executive 56 pump for your hot tub:
• Check the suction and discharge plumbing size on your existing pump
• Check the motor amp rating printed on the pump label (8A, 10A, 12A, 16A, etc.)
• Select those two options above and add to cart
That’s it — we handle the exact part number match for you.
This listing covers the most common Waterway Executive 56 configurations used in hot tubs, swim spas, and jetted tubs. Different vendors often assign different part numbers to the same pump, which is why shopping by “Executive 56” plus amp draw is the most reliable method.
If you’re unsure which option matches your existing pump, you can email us a photo of your pump label and plumbing and we’ll confirm it for you before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions – Waterway Executive 56
What does “Executive 56” mean?
Executive 56 refers to the motor frame size used by Waterway. Many different pumps share this same frame but have different amperage and wet-end configurations.
Why are there so many Executive 56 part numbers?
Waterway sells the same pump configurations to different manufacturers and distributors under different part numbers. The pump itself may be identical even though the part number is not.
How do I know which Executive 56 pump I need?
You only need two things:
-
Your suction and discharge plumbing size
-
The amp rating printed on your pump’s motor label
Can I replace an Executive 56 with a different amp rating?
No. The replacement pump must match the original amp rating to avoid electrical or performance issues.
Is this a 2-speed or 1-speed pump?
Executive 56 pumps can be 1-speed or 2-speed depending on configuration. Select the option that matches your existing pump.
What if I order the wrong option?
If the pump has not been installed, contact us immediately and we’ll help correct it. Installation voids return eligibility.
Do I need the exact Waterway part number?
No. This page is designed specifically so you don’t need the part number — only plumbing size and amp draw.
