I had a 2" inlet with a 90 to the dart, then the 1.5" out to 6 foot of pipe on the return side, and it was insanely hot all the time. To the point where I could barely touch it without screaming like a little girl. It ran constant for 4 years no issues.

Is the fan motor unobstructed and clean? I give mine a puff of compressed air every once and a while. My pump is warm, I could probably leave my hand on it all night, certainly not as hot as you describe.

It's actually reasonably clean. It does get some dust over time but I've cleaned it out before. I can't blow it out with air but the first time I thought it was too hot I took the whole cover right off and wiped it all clean.. didn't seem to make a noticeable difference.
