Review on πŸ’¦ Aqua Tec 8852-2J03-B423 Aquatec CDP 8800 Water Booster Pump + Transformer 115V 1/4 & 3/8, Black: Powerful Water Pressure Enhancer for Optimal Performance by Bryant Randolph

Lasted less than a year

I have used this pump for 9 months on a high pressure aeroponics machine set at 100psi. It was exactly as advertised with very low noise levels and self priming capability. However, I noticed last week that the pump was making a squeaking noise and today the pump just ran non stop but spilled the entire tank onto the floor through the outlet and drained (left behind) my pressure tank. connected the pump switched off. I opened it up and found a small hole in the triangular diaphragm that allowed water to enter the motor. The rear housing containing the brush was rusted and one of the flexible copper wires connecting the brush was burnt out and the bearing was also shot through. Mid-grow for a few hours without pressure and all plants will die. Luckily I had a backup plan but there was still a huge puddle of water and nuts to clean up.
