Inspector comments: PDSC form verified during inspection to be incorrect:
- The current form indicates that the filtration pump is a Sta-Rite model # P4R6E3-187/ 1HP w/ an Emerson 1HP replacement motor. No identification found on pump itself; however, Sta-Rite cover on lint basket and replacement motor is an Emerson 1 HP.

Note: EHS observed that the 2 main drain covers are Aquastar WAV9WR and that the 2 equalizer line covers are Aquastar 6HP which match that listed on the current PDSC form.
