Question:
Is this pump suitable as a marine live well pump
asked by: Bob G
Expert Reply:
I took a look at the:
-Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump # LC689052 that you mentioned, and this pump can not be used as a livewell pump as this pump is not able to be submerged.
Instead, you can use the:
-Seaflo Automatic Bilge Pump w/ Magnetic Float Switch # SE46FR.
While this pump is not directly made for a livewell, however you can use a bilge pump for your livewell because they use the same motors and impellers as in centrifugal livewell pumps.
Attached are a couple of review videos for you to check out as well.
