Poor perfromance

Review Posted 06/10/2016
Replace a 2hp pump I bought at True Value. Extremely disappointed. True Value pump was less money, performed better and lasted 10 years (failed do to my winterization error).
Spent a little more assuming I was getting better product. I was wrong does not push as many heads as previous pump.

Not Satisfactory
By Wayne B.

Review Posted 08/03/2015
I Ask Jim and called customer service to make sure this pump would deliver what I needed-operate 7-8 sprinklers with a lift of 55' and run of app. 100 yds. Pump to water (lake) app. 3'.
Will not run 3 sprinklers with enough pressure to cover the area they were set up to cover. Submersible pump I had to replace ran 7. Emailed Water Pumps Direct explaining my problem and no answer. Guess I'll have to buy another pump but would like some cooperation or at least a response from Water Pumps Direct before ordering another one.

Expert Response
I'm sorry to hear of the issues you are experiencing with your pump. The last email that I sent to you on 7/8 read:
Please accept my apologies for the delay in getting back to you. These pumps can give approximately 40 PSI of pressure and the input pipe needs to be 2 inch minimum, no less and the source of water needs to be as close to the pump as possible. This is the best information that I can provide on the Bur-Cam pumps.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
IF you are running 1-1/2" on your suction pipe or smaller, this will create problems like the ones that you are experiencing and this was also conveyed to you in the 7/8 email 2 days after your purchase.
If the pump was installed per manufacturers instructions, please call Bur-Cam tech support at 800-361-1820 and they will be happy to assist you troubleshooting your problem. If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,

Review Posted 01/26/2015
I ordered the Bur-Cam 700508 after visiting Waterpumpsdirect
website. Three days later it was at my house. Hooked it up to my sprinkler system and it's doing a good job watering my lawn. It's also very quiet compared to the old pump. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for a sprinkler pump.
