Great Longevity

Review Posted 08/12/2022
Have had similar model in service for over 12 years in groundwater sump pumping about 25 gal three or more times per day with a 15’ head. Just replaced with this new pump and old pump was really encrusted with mineral deposits.
Only difficulty encountered is that same model backup pump which is submerged needs to operate at least every 18 days to prevent mineral bridging.

Easy to install and wire new electrical box to feed power and on/off float switch. Removed old pump - transferred piping to new pump. Connected wiring, etc. - back in operation within 1 hr.
