water pump

Looking to upgrade/replace my water pump. I've done a search and found nothing. Does anyone have a recommendation for an upgraded pump?

Clev, I put this unit in the neighbors older Montana a year ago. I thought it was a little high, but they were happy. It was what had been recommended to them by who knows what. It sure was quiet, I'll say that.

Thank you, Nathan. Yes, that’s a pretty expensive pump.

I installed this one last year. Plumbing and bolt pattern are either very close or the same (can't remember). Works fine and has a little more pressure than the original.

Yes they were. I think I reused the old filter housing for a reason I can't recall for sure. I think I didn't want to mess with changing the factory crimped on hose fitting that connects to the strainer. The pump fittings are the same but I think the inlet to the strainer was different. Using the original strainer was the quickest at the time.

I received the Seaflo 42 series pump today and my wife will install it tomorrow. While we are into this, I would like to sanitize the fresh water tank. How is that accomplished? I know how to drain the tank, but how do I get sanitizing material into it?

1 3/4 to 2 cups of bleach for the 100 gallon tank.

Method 1
Pour the bleach into the hose, hook up water, fill tank.

Method 2
I use a sump pump in a 5 gallon bucket, water and bleach and pump into the fresh water drain tube using a slip on Sharkbite fitting.and appropriate adapters for the pump.

Once above is done run cold water faucets till you can smell the bleach then lit sit 8-10 hours then flush.

Thank you, port. I knew the mixture, but was not sure how to get it into the tank.

We use a small plastic funnel I purchased at Auto-Zone or any auto parts place. Make sure you're using real 6% sodium hypochlorite, not the cheap dollar store trash. The strength will be on the label, in small print. If you only can buy the 3% then you'll need twice as much. Clorox is the real thing. Unscented, of course. It smells bad enough already.

And another thing. Where are you guys draining the clorox solution from the tank? Clorox will kill my lawn, and also my septic tank if I drain it there.

The small amount you will use will not cause an issue.

When i remove the old pump, I think that I will use 1/2" fittings and hoses and connect the output to the fresh water tank output, making it an input for the tank. Adapt a fitting and hose to the input side of the pump and insert the other end in a 5 gallon bucket of clorox mixture as suggested by port. Activate the pump, and pump the 5 gallons into the fresh tank. Problem solved.

Right at the female fitting where your fresh water supply hose attaches. All you're going to pour in with the funnel is the bleach. As soon as the bleach is in then fill with water.
Clev, 2 cups of bleach in 100 gallons of water on your lawn or down the street will harm nothing.
