Zodiac – Motor mounting foot FHP 75T & 100T – R0479904

The Zodiac R0479904 is a genuine OEM replacement motor mounting foot designed specifically for Zodiac FHP 75T and FHP 100T pool pump motors. The mounting foot is the structural base component that secures the pump motor firmly to its housing and to the installation surface, ensuring correct alignment between the motor shaft and the hydraulic pump body. Without a sound mounting foot, the motor can vibrate excessively, leading to premature bearing wear, noise, and potential misalignment of rotating parts.

As a factory-matched spare part, this component is manufactured to the exact dimensional tolerances required by the FHP 75T and FHP 100T pump models. It replaces worn, cracked, or broken mounting feet and restores the pump to its original installation integrity. Zodiac pool equipment is known for its robust engineering, and using genuine replacement parts ensures that the repair meets the original performance and safety standards of the unit.

Technical details and compatibility

This mounting foot is specifically listed in the Zodiac 2020 product catalogue under the FHP pump spare parts range, confirming its compatibility with the FHP 75T and FHP 100T motor variants. The component is made to interface directly with the motor casing geometry of these models, meaning it is not a universal part and should only be fitted to the specified pump types. Attempting to fit this foot to other FHP variants — such as the FHP 50M or FHP 75M — would require the separate R0479905 reference instead.

The mounting foot is a static structural component and does not contain electrical parts or moving elements, making installation straightforward for a qualified pool technician. It typically requires basic hand tools and access to the pump motor housing. Always isolate the pump from the power supply before beginning any disassembly or replacement work.

Suitability and intended application

This spare part is intended for pool owners and service technicians who are maintaining or repairing a Zodiac FHP 75T or FHP 100T pool pump. The FHP pump range is typically used in residential and light commercial swimming pool filtration systems. If the existing mounting foot shows signs of cracking, deformation, or physical breakage — often caused by vibration fatigue or accidental impact — replacing it with this genuine Zodiac part is the correct and safest course of action. Using non-genuine or incompatible feet can lead to poor motor alignment and accelerated wear on the pump assembly.
