Last year I used a Goulds JRS5 pump. I sucked up some gravel and damaged the impellor, so I replaced it with a Flotex el-cheapo that I got from Home Depot. I'm not a pump expert, so I judge the pump by how many impact sprinklers I can run at once. The Goulds ran 3, the Flotex ran 2. Within the last week, I've started to loose volume/pressure from the Flotex, and now it won't run one single impact sprinkler. I can get a reasonable volume out of the hose at low pressure for watering by hand, but not enough volume at
25+psi to run the sprinklers. I pulled up the intake tube from the well and examined it, screen is clean, water level is ok, no obvious problems, connections all tight. The pump does not loose it's prime, and I don't hear any air being sucked in, nor is there any air bubbles coming out of the output. For whatever reason, this pump is not longer usable, and I need water tomorrow.To make a long story short, I want a good quality pump and I'm thinking of chucking the Flotex and getting something better. I haven't yet found a repair kit for the Goulds, and I need water tomorrow. Any pump recommendations, and any supplier recommendations? I live in Lebanon, Oregon, about 45 minutes south of Salem Oregon.
