Thoughts on bilge pumps.
First, I'm rewiring a boat that has one of those auto switch pumps. Every 5
minutes or so it whirs and stops. Drives me nuts. Can't imagine sleeping on a
boat with one of those installed.
How I wire a bilge
Since purchasing this Enterprise about 10 years ago, I’ve gone through several
automatic bilge pumps. Either the motor fails, never stops running or the float
switch gets jammed. I’ve tried both the float switch and the automatic
versions.
I liked the idea of an automatic, especially if you ha

One additional thing that I do; remove my bilge pump and switch to above
the floor boards during winter storage and flush the pump with a 50/50 mix
of ethylene gycol and water and leave the bottom end of the pump submerged
in the same mix...I think that helps to keep the pump in good shape for

What about those solid state switches that are integral with the pump.
Anyone have any experience with these?
I've got a Whale pump like this, but haven't got around to installing it yet.

Regardless of what pump you choose rewire. You don’t want stray current
corrosion on your boat.

Josh,
The wiring is certainly suspect at this point in the boat's age. I prefer
to mount the pump low in the bilge because most of them push water better
than pulling it uphill. Putting it another way, they blow better than they
suck.
