Q: Hi Jim, I have a working well system. It has two pumps: one pumping the water up from the ground, and the second pumping water from the aerator tank through the softener and into the house. The second pump needs to be replaced. Can you tell me what type of pump I should be looking at? Thanks, Rich by Rich from Florida on June 30, 2016
A: Rich,
Thank you for your interest in Water Pumps Direct. Before I can really make an educated suggestion on what pump you would need for your application, I would need to know the following specifications and requirements:
Tank size-
GPM & PSI Requirements-
Total pumping distance including any elevation variance-
Number of Sprinkler Heads (if zoned, per zone) And Their Individual GPM & PSI Requirements (if applicable)-
Total Distance from The Pump to The Furthest Sprinkler and Any Elevation Variance (if applicable)-
If you can supply this information, I'll be happy to assist you further.

Had a Gould pump, lasted 17 yrs quiet. Had an Everbuilt from Home Depot lasted 2 years,Chinese junk. Did not know Red Lion is made in china, pretty noisy.
Pros:Easy To Use, Price

"I had another great experience with waterpumpsdirect.com. I have bought multiple items from the website over the years and have always had a good experience. Customer service is outstanding."
I have only had the pump installed for a couple of weeks so far but I am very pleased with it. It is compact, but being cast iron it feels more sturdy than the pump that it replaced. Installation went very smooth, the only thing I did was adjust the pressure switch up a little to get it to the 30 psi on and 50 psi off that it is advertised at. I am hoping to get years of service out of this pump.
Pros:Quiet, Price, Durable

"This is my first purchase but I am very pleased. The price was right and the shipping was fast."
Shipping was prompt and as scheduled. Pump is quiet. Easy to change from 220 to 110. Great recovery for water pressure. It took a little time to check water drips, but machining was very accurate.
Pros:Features, Quiet, Exceeded Expectations, I'd Buy It Again
