We will publish longer, more detailed versions of these tips but want to get them on-line now so they may be of help to you.
Always use an approved strainer on the inlet side of your pump.
Most installations that have rigid plastic pipe need flex lines (pump silencing kit) on the inlet and outlet of the pump for smoother operation and longer pump life.
Parts are available for the ShurFlo 2088 series but we have found it safer to replace the entire pump or pump head.
An Intellitec pump controller is available to reduce the larger wire runs between switches and pumps. A momentary switch with smaller wires can be used to turn on and off the pump.
Periodically sanitize your pump. Lack of sanitizing is the number one reason for premature pump failure and poor performance.
