You may see general swimming pool equipment and swimming pool filtration products advertised online at discounted prices, through auction websites such as ebay and non-authorised dealer websites. If you are considering purchasing through any of these websites, be aware that the products may not have been sourced and approved for use in Australian swimming pools and, if they have not:

1. Warranty service is generally not available and an expensive process to remove ship and re-install the pool pump. A few dollars saved can be expensive in the long run
2. The online pool pump products may not be the version designed for the Australian market or may be supplied without essential components for correct installation.
3. the products may not be genuine made pool pump products.
