Hi,
Has anyone else had issues with these pumps.
My last pump was replaced after a few weeks use.
The on demand switch packed up first, then a couple of weeks later the thing packed up altogether.
I replaced it with a new unit yesterday.
Tested it today on a job and it failed after 2 1/2 hours use.
When I returned to base I tried it and it ran fine.
I presume the thermals tripped it.
The on demand switch was not working and the pump was running constantly so I presume this is the reason for the thermal trip.
I`m just not sure wheter i`ve been unlucky or are these pumps inferior quality?
I have previously used various Shurflo pumps and have never experienced such reliability issues.
I`m sure the supplier will rectify but have there been any dud batches reported?
Is it a common fault?
Obviously a pump is useless unless it will run for hours at a time.
Thanks.
Paul
