Best 5hp Sprinkler Pump
By Brian B 
Utah
Review Posted 06/30/2022 
I have run this pump for a couple of years and it is the best sprinkler pump that runs from 60 - 70 PSI usually and is quiet. Depending on sprinkler setup this pump could water around 3/4 an acre at a time before a significant pressure drop.

Product is performing as expected. It has only been in service a few hours, so time will tell how high the quality is.

Booster Pump
By Stephen O. 
west islip, New York
Purchased 06/22/2016 | 
Review Posted 07/13/2016 
We have brand new irrigation system that was installed with an initial pressure of 42psi @ 160 gpm. This past month the static pressure dropped below 30 psi. So we installed this pump on 1 of the 3- 2" water services that feed a looped 2" pvc main approx 5,000' we increased the pressure to not quite 60psi @ 160 gpm. Now the system is smoking and we were very impressed with the results

Works Well

Review Posted 05/31/2016 
I irrigate a 1.5 acre market garden with this pump from a pond. It runs about 15 impact sprinklers at a time and works well. I paired it with a 3" suction hose. No problems after several days of running for 4-6 hours consistently.

If this motor/pump is installed within a box/enclosure, will it need ventilation?
