Why it matters
The 506532SS is a stainless steel 3/4 HP jet pump for two jobs: drawing from a shallow well, or boosting pressure on a low-pressure supply. The listing gives 15 GPM.
Stainless construction resists rust better than cast iron, which matters with aggressive well water. Bur-Cam gives it a two-year warranty.
