Would Recommendeasy installation,nice quality,sturdy built,i installed this pump in my well which is 100' deep then from there it pushes the water another 250' uphill to my house and it performs flawlessly. ive installed hundreds of pumps and i have to say this one is near the top of my good list.
If you buy this, better get the extended warrenty
Would Not RecommendRated for my well, installed by professionals but...The first one I bought burned out in 2 months. Got it replaced under warrenty. The second one burned out in 1 year, 2 months - 2 months after warrenty ended...
There's a reason there's only a 1 year warranty
Would Not RecommendI've only had the pump 10 months, at 160' and it quit.
Brand new pump did not work
Would Not RecommendIf you buy this pump, test it before you go to the trouble and expense of installing it. The new pump, right out of the box did not work. So we had to pay to have the new pump pulled and reinstalled after purchasing yet another new one. If it were not the weekend and needed water on ASAP (handicapped older person in the home needed water) I would have NOT bought a second one of these junk pumps. You would think as many complains of people getting these new pumps that did not work that Lowes woul...
Not a good purchase

Don't waste your time

I am sitting in my kitchen at 3:17am, typing this out, waiting for a plumbing store to open so I can get a real pump from a real plumbing supply after being woken up by a pregnant wife (#5 - kids, not wife) at 2 am who couldn't flush or wash her hands because of zero water pressure. After the original pump died (10/27/06), the only place I could buy a pump at 8pm was Lowes. With a pregnant wife (#3) and 2 kids, waiting until Monday to have water ...
BURNT OUT A LITTLE OVER A YEAR
Would Not RecommendNOT HAPPY WITH PUMP. HAD TO REPLACE A LITTLE AFTER A YEAR.
Well pump
Would Not RecommendSorry lowes but this pump has a problem. I had no problem installing it put pulling a well pump is no easy task. After installing and making sure all electric and piping were installed correctly the pump didn't work so we had to re- pull the pump and get another. To make it worse we go to return to pump and a sales person stated this is the number 1 returned part in lowes
