  • Flojet Fresh Water Pump

    Posted by Davy on September 26, 2017 at 12:53 pm

    One of the very first things I had trouble with on our coach back in March 2008 was the fresh water pump system. Mine came original with two 12V pumps but by the time I purchased it, the original configuration was long gone. It had obviously be re-plumbed to accommodate different pumps. It had a conglomeration of Shurflo and Flojet pumps with water pipe and strainers every where.

    The first pump took a bow quickly and I replaced it with a hi flow but standard type Flojet. That is all I had ever had in sticks and staples RVs and it goes full blast only and cycles like a beast.

    The second pump went out the first winter and I replaced it with a variable speed Flojet 4525-743 VSD 4.5 GPM. It has worked great.

    I noticed it leaking Saturday. It seems to be leaking where the lower housing assembly is mounted to the pump and leaks bad enough that it will not shut off.

    I have not called to see if I can get parts but it looks like it can be rebuilt. I am considering buying a replacement for the leaking pump, rebuilding it if possible and saving it for a spare to the first constant speed pump I replaced. That particular pump is not available but they have a replacement, Flojet R4426143A VFLO 5.0 GPM.

    Suggestions or ideas?
