Enjoy the comfortable water pressure of home with this self-priming, on-demand water pump. Supplies consistent water flow for up to 4 fixtures. Includes a check valve to prevent backflow.

Specs:
A water pump is needed to get the water from your RV or boat's fresh water holding tank up to your faucets. This automatic pump from Seaflo not only performs this task, but it also ensures a consistent flow and high-volume output for up to 4 fixtures. This means you can run your shower and your kitchen faucet at the same time without losing pressure. It's also energy efficient and runs quietly.
There are 2 types of pumps you can get for your RV: one that requires manually priming every time you run your fresh water tank dry, and one that primes automatically. Manual priming requires that you pour water into the pump, which can be inconvenient and messy. This pump primes itself, keeping you and your RV clean and dry.
Seaflo uses an automatic start-and-stop pressure switch that lets the pump run dry long enough to self-prime. If you turn your water on and realize you've unknowingly run your fresh water tank dry, the pump can run dry without damage while you shut the faucet and the pump off. The pressure switch also protects the pump motor from overheating when the water has been on for a while. So, if one of your kids leaves the faucet on, you're going to town with the washdown hose, or your teen takes a long shower (despite your asking them to conserve water), the pump will kick off when it starts to get hot. Once the motor has cooled, it will automatically come back on if the faucet or shower is still turned on.
To use this pump once it's installed, you only have to turn the water on!
Quick Tips: Some of our neighbors suggest unplugging this pump when you're traveling to prevent it from turning on accidentally if your faucets shake. And some of our feline-loving friends also recommend unplugging the unit any time you leave your cats unsupervised.
This pump can be installed on the floor, under a cabinet, or on the wall. Because this pump has a vertical, priming lift, you can install it up to 6' above your fresh water tank. Just make sure to measure 6' from the bottom of your holding tank. This is where the intake fitting will sit.
Once you've determined the pump's location, it can be secured to its new home with 4 screws (not included).
A filter is included to prevent debris from entering the pump. To install this, just screw it inline with the inlet port.
The fittings on this pump are male NPT ports. Screw the 1/2"-14 NPT hose barbs onto the pump fittings. The hose barb fittings have wingnuts to make it easy to turn the fittings by hand. Once you have the tubing (sold separately) in place on the hose barbs, add hose clamps (sold separately) for extra security.
Fill your fresh water tank and turn your water faucet on to clear the lines of air. The pump should kick on immediately, but because self-priming can take up to a minute to complete, give it a little time to start producing water at the faucet.

Enjoy the comfortable water pressure of home with this self-priming, on-demand water pump. Supplies consistent water flow for up to 4 fixtures. Includes a check valve to prevent backflow.Anchored it to vibration pads. Still sounds like a freight train when it runs. Tried to return it - No luck.
Very pleased at 1 year. This is the first pump I have had with the bypass function. It helps by lessening the pump cycling with low water flow at the faucet. This pump is also somewhat less noisy than our first and third pumps. Yes, we are on our 4th pump since new in 2014!. I have a really good feeling about this one now after 1 year and no glitches and still sounds the same as when I first installed it. Also it was an easy install since fittings matched the old ones.
Purchased for a mountain property. Works great with the high flow rate. Along with great support from etrailer!
This is an upgrade to our working pump - The new pump provides noticeably improved water pressure and the install was well done!
So far so good. Added pressure and volume to our RV shower. Easy installation. Service from Etrailer is always great.

Has worked very well with no problems
No problems, after 1 year still going.
This pump is working fine, a replacement for one that was damaged by freezing not winterized correctly.
So far it is working great
This is a great pump. It produces lots of pressure. Very easy to install.

The pressure switch failed contacted Seaflo to just get a replacement pressure switch with out sending the pump back as I need it. And never got a answer to my email. Will buy form another company the next time.

I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you. The pump does have a limited 4 year warranty.
The pump works as advertised, good flow for the shower. I like the variable flow feature and as always etrailer did their usual good job.
Has been working just fine.

This pump has worked great all year,
The pump is wonderful. The only problem is that Etrailers video tells you it will work on a 17 amp circuit. The instructions from seaflo says pump should be wired on its own dedicated circuit to the battery. The electrical circuit for this pump requires a 25 amp fuse. I installed a continuous duty solenoid that supplies power to the pump when I turn the existing pump switch on that was it my 5th wheel rv.
Doesn't work correctly, internal check valve not working as water comes back through pump when city water on.

That is a very common problem. The incoming city water pressure is too high. Incoming suction side pressure ideally should be 0 but no higher than 30 psi. There needs to be a regulator on the city water feed.

Thank you so much for the reply, I have put a regulator on hose and the new warranted pump works now!
The pump arrived on time and works well. I replaced the original pump in my Monaco motorhome and it is quieter than the one I replaced. The only problem I had was the box was open when it was delivered and I had to go buy o-rings for the fittings so they would seal. I would definately recommend this pump and etrailer.
I have water pressure!!! I couldn't believe how "weak" the old (original) pump was in this motorhome. It took some pipe modification to get it to fit, but I am glad I went with the most powerful unit I could buy. eTrailer was it's usual "efficient self", ordering was seamless and delivery was timely and efficient.
I received my product this morning as promised. Very good looking, well made pump. I have bought multiple items from etrailer, and have been very pleased each time with the products and service. I very much appreciate them following up as they do to see if I am pleased. I always search etrailer first for my needs. I highly recommend etrailer.
So far it’s been a great pump
This is a direct replacement for the existing pump in our RV which made instillation a breeze. My only complaint is that it is incredibly noisy compared to the Shurflo pump it replaced..
I love Etrailer! They work with you and are very helpful when you order parts. Great prices also!
Good service will buy again thanks
Great, pump doesn’t constantly recycle
Best pump out there. I've had a few and this one is quieter and plenty strong enough
Was not an on demand kept blowing fuses gave up on it. I will look elsewhere. For the proper pump.

We live full-time in our motorhome. Perhaps that is why we wore out 3 demand water pumps in the first 7 years. Now at the 2 year point with this pump and absolutely no problems to date. Very happy with this pumps functioning. I think SeaFlo got it right with this one.
