Important Warranty Information.

Shurflo pumps come with limited warranty. This means that there is no warranty cover for damage to pumps from freezing, water ingress into the motor/electric or from the ingress of contamination by resin or other debris into the pump. Also, the pressure switch is not rated for work with water fed systems so this is not covered under the warranty if it fails, even within a very short period of time. To prolong the life of your pump and avoid repair bills, we suggest the following:

Do not let your pump freeze.

Provide suitable inlet filtration and prevent resin/debris from flowing back into the pump when changing resin.

Protect the pumps electrics and outer casing from water.

Use a pump flow Spring controller, this will protect the pumps pressure switch and give you more control over the flow.

If you are having problems with a Shurflo pump, we are happy to provide help in fixing it. And if you happen to be nearby, feel free to come to our shop with your pump, we might be able to sort it out for you on the same day. Pump not included.

Customer question:

What indicates that water may have got into my pump? Water can enter the pump at the bell end of the pump. If you see any of the following, it can indicate water ingress.

• High pitch screaming noise when working - this can come from a rusty bearing
• An electrical buzzing noise without rotating - this can come from a seized bearing
• Indication of water leak from above the pump, sometimes seen as a white deposit.
