Excellent
By Norris M.
Pensacola, Florida
Purchased 10/20/2020 |
Review Posted 11/19/2020
Had it up and running in less than an hour and half which included new plumbing from well and a new indexing valve to zones. Primed quickly and produced good pressure quickly as well to all my sprinkler heads. One zone has 15 and another with 16. I needed one that draws from 25 Feet.

Holy Cow! Can't Believe I Found This
By Reg M.

Review Posted 05/21/2020
This is the same pump I had when my home was purchased 28 years ago. It's longevity is a testament to its quality. What's more, the swap was exceptionally easy, basically like replacing a light bulb.

I bought this pump because it was the same as my old pump. I just unhooked all the pipes and wiring and installed the new pump.

I Love This Pump Second One Purchased!!
By Mary S.
Largo, Florida
Purchased 05/24/2018 |
Review Posted 07/19/2018
I had this pump for my sprinkler system before. I hired a person to get my system to work (long story) so i needed another pump since this one sat not in use for years. The person bought another pump and could not get it to work. Stated we needed to move everything (electrical,valves etc...) closer to the lake and that is why it did not work. NOT!!
I expressed that this one did work and I am NOT moving the operation closer to the lake. I purchased the pump and YES wala guess what the pump worked!! I love it and so does the grass and plants. Thank you so much I will always replace with a Flotec when needed and RECOMMEND it also!

Bought As An Identical Replacement As I Could No Longer Get Part
By Msrk L.
Columbia, South Carolina
Purchased 05/12/2018 |
Review Posted 06/05/2018
Very pleased to still find this pump that I had purchased 21 years ago and paid less for it than I did 21 years ago. Ran reliably for 21 years until seal finally failed. Chose this one mainly due to the pump curve as I have 16 feet of lift from pond to suction of pump. Performed as expected.
