To any one out there who has the in tank water pumps. They work great, BUT Don\'t take them apart when they stop working,Holy *H*T for small parts. 3 day\'s to get it back together properly. Not a nice way to spend a weekend( all weekend). Can you order just sleeves for them or do I have to order a whole unit?? Where and who would I contact??? Thanks

An in tank water pump is like a Rolls Royce that you won in a lottery; it is the best of the best, but you can not afford to keep it running. Purely as a monetary consideration, I would suggest that you look at Hypro pumps.... unless you have lots of extra money about. Ask DerPutz about it. |

That\'s my problem,...I got a taste of the RR and the other pumps have roller style they just don\'t compete..Big Delemma.. I was quoted earier about 2000.00 for a replacement.... Bigger Delemma. To switch to roller I would have to manufacture a whole new mount for it...What is the life span of the in tank styles. I only get 1yr max out of the roller style. Average life span 6 months If the in tank style will last 3yrs it cheaper for me to buy it.. Liner in tank falls off and destroy\'s rollers, put strainer on operators don\'t drain it in the winter cracks ..leaks.. have to take it off again... chunk destroy\'s rollers.. vicious cycle... |

Alliance, Concord, and I believe Pumpstar, all have the water pump your looking for, its been over a year since I was in contact with them. I ended up going with a Hypro pump. Much cheaper and easy to install. Considering that rust will eventually wear out the pump again, the price of the hypro makes alot of sense. You can get a 7560 roller pump with a hydraulic motor all in one. Its the 7560 GM30. Great pump. |
