Shurflo Pressure Pumps
![]() |
|
This brand is fitted to all Winnebagos and really is an excellent product. It lets you have a pressurised system - like the mains in your house. Now it isn't perfect as you will get fluctuations but it comes on as soon as you turn on a tap and you can easily get it to just "dribble" for teeth cleaning whilst saving water. We like the rubber mounts supplied as they reduce noise no end. In practice it is not a good move to have a totally silent pump as if you leave the mains on and you run out of water the pump will run continuously. Manufacturers blurb:-
This 12 volt, 2.8 gpm multi fixture demand water pump features a patented
pump head that is actually three independent pumping chambers, giving
you three way dependability. The unique design has no moving parts travelling
more than 3mm (1/8") greatly reducing friction and wear and tear.
Will deliver hot or cold fresh water to multiple outlets - galley, shower
Etc. Self priming to 3.6 metres. Features waterproof pressure switch with
adjustable shut-off 30 to 45 PSI. Thermally protected motor - can run
dry without damage. Extra quiet, virtually inaudible in a standard installation.
Size 220mm long x 110mm high x 130mm base plate width. For fresh water
only. 1/2" BSP male outlets. Expect to pay around $200.00 from Camec,
Carac,
Whitworths
etc. We have seen them as low as $140.00 on special so it pays to search
the Internet. |
