Floating intake Springer Series pump — backorder solution overview
With all the price increases happening and unreliable production, we at Rain Brothers have been working hard to launch our OWN LINE of cistern pumps — the Springer Series pump collection. Now, we’re in control of pricing, and we’re working hard at taking what we’ve learned in our 16 years in business to master a pumping solution for our customers — and we’re doing it all at lower pricing!
This TRADITIONAL pump can be compared with the Franklin C1 model. Not only did we make this pump to last, but we even added an integrated low-level float switch to automatically turn the pump off when the water in your tank gets too low. Like other traditional-style pumps, this pump requires the use of a pressure tank (at least 16-gallon capacity, though we recommend a minimum of a 20-gallon tank) and an external pressure switch, like the one included in our pump control/tank tee kit.
The Springer Series Traditional Pumps Feature
- Integrated float switch for automatic run-dry protection
