We have 1 Lorentz installation in Haiti and about 9 in West Africa - pumping
around 10,000 gpd. Started using them a few years ago because we were having
lots of problems with Grundfos. To date, I believe we've had problems with
1 controller and 1 pump. (not sure, but a wiring error on the part of our local
techs might have caused one of these problems) We're now buying from American
West Windmill and Solar in TX (800530-4744) and have had good service from
them. For our next round of systems, we'll probably be looking at Sunpumps as
well.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Lorentz Pumps
Greetings Wrenchies;
I have had a few inquiries for larger flow rate pumps, and was wondering
what the latest on Lorentz pumps was. They show some commercial models
with high flow rates (30,000gpd) but I haven't gotten any response from
the company directly.
I have three questions:
Are there any good in country distributors?
are they worth giving a try?
and finally, is anyone actually selling any solar pumps, or just taking
a lot of phone calls that ultimately lead no where (like us)?
Thanks in advance as always,
--
