Why it matters
The SPRK150 is a 1.5 HP centrifugal pump built for volume: up to 4,250 GPH and 108 ft of head, through a 2 in suction and 1-1/2 in discharge.
It runs on 115 or 230 V (set to 230 V at the factory) with thermal overload protection, and it's aimed at lawn sprinklers and garden irrigation from a shallow well, pond or tank.

Pros and cons
Pros

- Cast iron
- Dual voltage
Cons
- No pressure switch for home use
- Factory set to 230 V
- Priming needed
Limitations to weigh

- Prime the pump casing with water before the first start; jet pumps can't lift water until they're primed.
