Title: flojet pumps
Post by: homenclean on January 24, 2010, 11:32:55 pm

I have just been searching for a new pump and come across a flojet pump at woodbridge 160psi, 240 volt, viton sealsat only £105.00 + vat.

Has any one tried these?

All my machines have generally had shurflo pumps so any feedback would be appreciated.

Sounds too good to be true.

hi john
i have just looked at woodbridge site, as it was new to me that flowjet did a 160 psi pump.
and the pump your talking about i think, is a flowjoe,
which i have never heard of, they do supply a fixing bracket
as from picture the fixings on pump look different

Personally and im sure many would agree that Shurflo pumps are MUCH better than the Flojet.

My mistake they are flojoe pumps. I have ordered one from woodbridge and am assured that all the fittings are compatable with prochem machines etc.

These are woodbridge owb brand and only time will tell how good they are but at £105 they are a reasonable buy.

I am told that Shurflo have moved their spares depot from UK to the continent and ever since it has been nearly impossible to obtain spares that are not on UK supplier's shelves already.

This was a couple of weeks ago so things may have changed.
