Title: submersable pump
Post by: top rung on May 28, 2007, 07:19:50 pm

My sub pump seems to be taking longer to fill my tank on the van.The sound and speed of the pump sound the same as when i first started using it,but water output seems alot slower, is there much to go wrong with them or do they just pack up.

Have you checked your hose?

I have a 1" hose and because of the weight of the water the hose kinks or narrows in places. My tank got slower and slower to fill up. I changed the hose and its fine again.
