Coach Potable Water Pump
Has anyone tried the Flojet variable speed water pump? They advertise higher
flow rates and
less noise. We have a Shurflo that pump that is noisey and has sprung a leak so
I'm tempted
to try the Flojet.

One thing to keep in mind Eric is that high flow usually means you run out
of water sooner.

Coach Potable Water Pump
Eric,

I replaced my factory water pump with a Jabsco model#31755. It
provides 4.5 gallons per minute(GPM) and has a 12amp/12volt draw.

I like it because its quiet, variable speed, variable flow, constant
pressure(about 40 psi) and I could remove the accumulator tank. The
accumulator tank can have its issues, such as trying to get the
proper air pressure on the bladder side.

The new pump has worked flawlessly for 3 years now. There are pumps
with higher GPM and pressure, I haven't needed anything larger than
the 4.5GPM, 40PSI.

I think my house runs about 60psi, so the pump is really close to
provideing the same pressure as home. It definitely provides more
flow(GPM) than shore water does.

I like it alot. My borther has the next bigger pump. Its a Shurflo
Smart Sensor 5.7, 65psi. He likes it I think. Maybe he'll comment
here, he's real bashful or doesn't talk much or sumthin.. ;~}

Anyway, yea, make the change

Thumbs up on the Shurflo Smart Sensor 5.7. Good pressure in the shower, no
accumulator tank, and overload/overheat shut down and automatic reset. Shop
price and be sure to check at www dot rvpartsoutlet dot com. I do not have
an economic or any other interest in it, but I probly wish I did.

Coach Potable Water Pump
Hi Jay,

My FloJet accumulator tank just threw in the towel. In addition,
in my short time with my coach I've gone through 2 Shurflo diaphragm
water pumps; time to look for alternatives, which leads me to
your serendipitous post. Is there anything I need to know about
adapting the Jabsco 31755 to my bus, or is it simply remove the
rats nest of parallel Shurflo's and the accumulator tank along with
all the associated plumbing and drop in one single elegant device,
the Jabsco?

Thanks

Coach Potable Water Pump
David,

I removed my old noisey diaphram pump, the accumulator and the on
board water filter. All of this was in the same crampt spot, so
really made some room with just the pump going back in.

If I do it over again, I'd get the Shurflo Smart Sensor 5.7. Brother
has it, works great, bit higher shower pressure, little better volume
(in case some in the kitchen while I'm in the shower).

The pump will come with a variety of connectors for the water lines.
I didn't have to buy anything else(85PT40) as they sent everything I
needed. Not seen the much newer '02 pump set up.

Do the redundant pumps run simultaneously?

Get rid of the accunulator and both pumps, the variable speed pumps
do a very good job. Was pleasantly surprised when it performed as
described, you DO NOT need an accumulator.

The only time I notice the micro second delay is while shaving,
rinsing the razor without just leaving the water on. (not supposed
shave while playing anyway ;~} ...)

Make the change and don't look back!

Coach Potable Water Pump
Thanks Jay,

On my coach the Shurflo 2088 pumps run simultaneously. Others
have wired in a switch to use one as a backup. Do you have a preferred
vendor to buy the pump from? Looking forward to freeing up some
space in the basement water pump closet.

Coach Potable Water Pump
David,

The supplier Dan I both used was
https://www.rvpartsoutlet.com/newstore/nojava/index.cfm

The pump I reccomend is
https://www.rvpartsoutlet.com/newstore/n...wprod.cfm?
ID=3513&src=shurflo&refid=9CDF3CAF%2DCDA5%2D4DC8%2D8D99A5E0D4D79D92

If you have trouble with the link, its their Stock Number:19-0163

Its currently on special for $149.95, a pretty good buy on this pump.

Its $169.95 over at PPL, and $193.50 at Camping World.

Have used RVPartsOutlet.com many times, great prices and same great
service.
