Review on ๐Ÿ’ฆ Efficient and Portable Stainless Steel Lawn Sprinkling Pump: WAYNE PLS100 1 HP by John Maynard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Metal joints are better than plastic joints

I bought this to get sea water to water our lawn. The pump works great BUT there is a catch. Video nonsense / complete nonsense. What they don't tell you is that the plastic fittings that come with the unit, which make it easy to connect the pump to the hose you lower into the lake and connect the hose to the bottom valve, aren't what you get really need pump for that to work. To the right. Of course it works, but you have to prime the pump every time you use it. Trust me, you want to avoid that. Simple solution? Buy Abbott Rubber 1241-1000-10 1 inch 10ft PVC Suction Hose with Threaded Fittings instead of the green hose (Apache Water Pump PVC Suction Hose) that a lot of people seem to be buying (and showing in the video ads). Metal connections on the Abbott Rubber 1241-1000-10 PVC Water Suction Hose with threaded fittings allow suction to be maintained between uses so you only have to fill it once. Metal is better than plastic. I went to a fleet farm and bought metal joints and replaced all the plastic components.
