Interesting about the licensed pump installer, because in New Mexico there is not a license. I've been installing PV pumping systems since 1988, so I tire easily now when companies won't work with me, because I'm not "qualified". I actually installed some of the "Mono" hand crank and electric p

Hello Ray, We have had success selling solar pumps, but nothing in the 30,000 gpd category. Unfortunately, as I understand it, Lorentz will not sell to anyone that is not a licensed pump installer. You may talk to GenPro at http://www.genproenergy.com/lorentz-submersible-pumps.html to get the la

Fellow wrenches, Problems with Lorentz pumps have been discussed here before. Yesterday, I responded to a no water complaint and found that the Lorentz pump we installed in 2007 appears to have seized up during six months of non-use (it's for stock water). This is the second identical failur
