Sta-Rite JHC-61HL Complete High Head Centrifugal Pump, 1/2 HP
Sta-Rite builds the JHC-61HL as a factory-assembled high head centrifugal pump, 1/2 HP, in its J/JB Series. Every wetted part, the motor, and the pump end are matched at the factory to the ratings on the nameplate, which is worth confirming against the old unit before ordering a replacement of this exact model.
Because this is a complete pump rather than a single part, installation is mostly a matter of matching the plumbing connections and electrical supply to the old unit. Suction and discharge are 1-1/4 in NPT suction, 1 in NPT discharge. Check the voltage and horsepower on the old pump nameplate against this listing before ordering to avoid a mismatch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I rebuild my existing pump instead of replacing the whole unit?
If only the seal, gaskets, or impeller have failed, a seal or overhaul kit is usually the cheaper fix. A complete pump like this one makes sense once the motor or pump body itself has failed.
Q: What voltage does this pump run on?
115/230V, single phase. Confirm your electrical supply matches before wiring it in.
Q: Is this pump self-priming?
Sta-Rite jet and centrifugal pumps in this class are self-priming once the pump body and suction line are properly primed with water at startup; follow the priming instructions in the pump manual.
Q: Where should this pump be installed?
In a dry, accessible location such as a well house, basement, or utility room, close to the water source it is drawing from.
