On Persistence we have a Par 36680-2000 diaphram pump for the bilge with a water witch switch in the bilge. The pump was already installed when we purchased Persistence in 2014 so I have no idea of its age. The pump has given us zero problems. The only downside is that it is 330GPH and quite pricey

Hi Dennis Are you referring to a bilge pump or the bilge pump high water switch... What's the model number of the system you've installed? Thanks Ron C.

Bob alludes to a critical but often overlooked issue. Wiring that is too small to carry the amperage of a user, in this case, a bilge pump, can result in excessive voltage drop. Low voltage could contribute to premature failure. I second the Ultra Safety Systems bilge pump. I don't have one on Touche' (yet) but my buddy and I installed a bunch of them over the years. To my knowledge, they are all still working. Dennis C.

I never had a problem with my RULE 1500 bilge pump, just the float switches. I recently changed over to a float switch made by ULTRA systems and I love it. It hasn’t been a year yet but it is manufactured so much better than the RULE float switches that I’m sure it will last several years at least. I’ve also replaced my bilge pump wiring and went up one size from the minimum needed to do the job. All connections are done with heat shrink connectors too.

So changing out primary to diaghram and secondary (3000+ gph) to a higher quality (not Rule) pump recirculating. Any brand suggestions? Thanks in advance.
