Pros and cons
Pros
- 1,020 gph
- Made in the USA
- 2-year parts and labor
Cons
- Ejector sold separately
- Non-self-priming
- Higher current draw
Limitations to weigh
- Well pumps usually need a licensed installer, the right wire size and a pressure tank sized to the pump.
- Prime the pump casing with water before the first start; jet pumps can't lift water until they're primed.
- Check whether your circuit is 115 V or 230 V before ordering; many well pumps are wired for 230 V.
